Negative Positive
Title: Yuck
Review: Caught this flick on cable tonight and all I can say to any Hendrix fan considering a purchase should SKIP IT! If you have to see it out of curiousity then rent it. Other negative reviews have detailed some of the problems, but what must be stressed here is the lack of quality music.Hendrix was a great musician, but here you have a film about a musician whose music is not highlighted. I particularly hated the way Wood Harris played Jimi. Why the producers felt it most important to find someone that sort of looked like Hendrix regardless of talent I'll never know. Harris' lack of talent was the reason for the MTV fast cut, mocumentry style camera work which is particularly annoying.Bottom line: Poor soundtrack, poor acting, poor screenplay. This film should never have been made.
Is the review positive or negative?
