I have to thank Van Sant to try to produce something different. There was two good acustic songs and one in the end. I've never been interested of Kurt or his music or life or any that disoriented kind of people. And this one was a junky kind of madness I hate to see on film.

Interesting on some level, but not one of Van Sant's best.

My PSI for this movie is 72 lol. There is actually a scene in which Van Sant just holds on a car driving for 2 minutes. Wow, you are such an artist! So many horrible scenes. The first 10 minutes are so laughably bad. Literally consists of a guy walking around and mumbling and I think he swam in a lake and then peed in it, so interesting guys. Maybe he cried too. About as "deep" as Nirvana's terrible music. I'd rather listen to grunge music than have to watch this again. Incredibly terrible.

I probably would've taken more out of it if I was a Nirvana fan, but it's a pretty good movie. There's a lot of mumbling, which manages to set a mood but doesn't lead to the film saying much interesting.

sucks for the same reasons most grunge sucks

Very disappointing.

Slow

fantastically slow, mesmorizing. Occasional v funny interludes with yellow pages salesman etc

I can see why this would be so divisive.

The thing is, Kurt Cobain was an interested (and talented, I don't give a fuck what the haters say, he was) man. This is not that interesting, and I didn't even feel like it was a great meditation at all. There were a few great scenes (mostly music related), and then a lot of poor scenes. I tend to like movies like this, but there's a movie like Elephant which is like poetry, and then there's this. The few great scenes can't make up for the rest.

Talvez o meu estado de espírito ao ver este filme não fosse o melhor, mas achei-o muito pouco interessante. As personagens (incluindo e principalmente o próprio "Blake"/"Cobain") pareciam feitas de papel, as cenas arrastavam-se em situações que parecia mais o típico "encher chouriços" do que outra coisa (até um video completo de Boyz II Men deu). Se considerarmos que isto é inspirado nos últimos dias do Kurt Cobain, ainda mais desinteressante se torna. Grande desilusão.

Glacial, but impressive.

It was just boring to watch.

Calling bullshit on this one Gus. Thanks for at least making me roll my eyes with the "surprise" gay scene.
