    I saw it. It wasn't bad, certainly not great. It was a lot of personal footage about their family and growing up. It almost focused on their family as much as them as a band which was a little bit of a bummer for me. I was hoping for some behind the scenes stuff, some studio footage, things like that. While it did have some of that stuff, a lot of it was about their upbringing and their hometown and family. There are like 100 scenes just following Uncle Cleo walking around and stuff, which is a little strange to me. I think the point was they wanted to show everyone how they grew up and where they live since now they are a bunch of big headed assholes.

    If you are a fan, you'll enjoy it, I just can't say to what extent. I consider myself a fan and have been for awhile, but it was a little subpar for me. Just my 2 cents.

    It's unwatchable. There's barely a story and there's a ton of family stuff that's extremely boring.

    my thoughts exactly. i bought this thing with high expectations and i turned off my tv and felt like i had just been to some southern baptist revival or someting. i would return it to best buy if they would let me...
