Critics are Raving about 'Amazing Journey: The Story of The Who!'
Press acclaim for the Who's official biopic has been universal, both sides of the pond.
Reviews are still coming in but here are just some......
Simply put, Amazing Journey: The Story of the Who rocks. The Who is one of the greatest bands of all-time, a rightful member of the original holy trinity of the British Invasion. Unlike the Beatles and the Stones, however, there was something incendiary about the Who, something dangerous. They were almost like both bands in one, a clear gang of four, bustling with creativity, and yet out on a rough-and-tumble edge. This fabulous documentary, along with its disc of six bonus films, tracks their remarkable career from humble beginnings through massive success and on into the twilight years. Rare performances and candid interviews give us a glimpse behind the curtain like never before. Highly Recommended.
"Brilliant" - David Wild, contributing editor, Rolling Stone
