04/10/2021 You can't call yourself a music fan and not own this dvd. See more 09/13/2015 The best Rockumentary I've ever seen. See more 03/23/2015 A genuinely raw & honest look at a band that paved the way, but deserved so much more. Really uncomfortable at times, thanks to Johnny. Where a lot of band docs mask truths, this one is an open book. Scabs & all. Thoroughly enjoyable. See more 03/29/2014 An intriguing documentary! See more 01/11/2014 Fantastic doc about the Ramones, shot just before Dee Dee died, and a few years before Johnny died as well. Has great interview sections with Dee Dee, Johnny, Tommy, Marky, CJ, Richie, and the at-the-time only deceased one, Joey. Revealing about personalities, and very honest and open. I found Johnny to be very forthright about his personality, how he treated people, and how he cared about Joey's death, even though the 2 hadn't spoken in years and hated each other. Also reveals about Joey's transformation into a Rock Star, and how he changed who he was. Surprisingly, discussed how Dee Dee was such a big factor in the songwriting, and how his heroin issues affected himself and his life. There's some stuff said here that makes you think these guys hated each other, but it also comes across they wouldn't trade it for anything. Also speaks to the major MAJOR influence of the Ramones, when they interview the late Joe Strummer and he talks about sneaking in a window to see them, and how they said how much it meant for them. (Later on Johnny even says, the only band he ever worried about being better than them at what they were doing was the Clash). Essential viewing for Ramones fans, punk fans, music fans, and music historians. See more 02/04/2013 The story of punk rockers The Ramones, who never topped Billboards charts, but became a most influential band and connected with over two generations of outcasts after over twenty years of heavy touring. The film is pretty straight forward, but it offers great honest insight on the band as told from direct sources and from the band members themselves. All in all, this is a really good document of rock history. See more Read all reviews
