Cameron H Journey is one of my favorite classic rock bands so I enjoyed this documentary. The film chronicles the rise of singer Arnel Pineda, who went from being an impoverished youth in the Philippines, to becoming the frontman of Journey in 2007. The film is an interesting look at how Pineda was discovered by Journey, which was through a YouTube video of himself singing Journey songs. He was then invited by Journey co-founder and guitarist, Neal Schon, to audition to be the new lead singer for the band! Arnel Pineda is an incredible performer, has amazing energy, and it’s just mind blowing how similar his voice is to Steve Perry. If you’re a fan of Journey or classic rock, you’ve gotta check out this documentary! Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/15/25 Full Review Audience Member A proper feel good story with great music Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/20/20 Full Review Audience Member Not many bands get a second chance and new lease on life, but this music documentary tells the story of the legendary rock band Journey and how they successfully replaced a much loved singer with an unknown International frontman and experienced a rare rock and roll rebirth. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Cool doc for Journey fans - but that might be about it. The rags to riches story is great but only goes so far and wears thin midway through. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Amazing modern day Horatio Alger story about Arnel Pineda, a Philippinno man who was pulled from obscurity to become the new lead signer for the band Journey. Besides simply getting to see lots of great concert footage of a great band, along with a well told backstory of the band, the star of this film is Pineda and his story. Pineda grew up as a homeless youth in the Philippines singing in a band with his friends to make ends meet, among other things. As an adult, he was still no longer homeless, but still living a very impoverished life, when Neal Schon of Journey happened upon a YouTube video of Pineda and his band performing covers of Journey songs and was blown away. Pineda is a true talent and this film presents the amazing story of his dreams coming true, as much to his delight the band, and to millions of fans across the globe. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review bill t This was just ok. I was actually looking forward to this one, but for some odd reason, I just couldnt connect to any of the people here. Even with Arnel's homecoming, it just felt blah. Better editing, more showcasing the songs would have helped. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews
