This enjoyable ride should appeal to Alice Cooper's original fans, as well as those who came to him via the performers he influenced. Go to Full Review

This competent but underwhelming portrait of the 70s/80s rock star sticks to the usual wave-graph structure of a thousand other rock bio-docs ... Go to Full Review

4/5
The film's real masterstroke, however, is to cut in clips from the 1920 film Dr. Jekyll And Mr Hyde. This fits not only Cooper's love of vintage horror, but also the film's over-arching narrative... Go to Full Review

A fan friendly pastiche of images, sounds and info on one of the most outrageous rock 'n' roll acts ever. Go to Full Review

The familiar arc is fueled by a potent theme that drove the persona that made him a millionaire: Good vs. Evil. If only the movie were as potent as that theme. Go to Full Review

Pete B Mar 25 You’d think a documentary about Alice Cooper would be wild and engaging—after all, the guy’s a rock legend. Instead, this one relies way too much on cheap animation and weirdly edited voiceovers instead of, you know, actual footage of Alice and his band. It tries too hard to be cool instead of just telling the story straight. By the time it gets to the later years, it kinda rushes through everything, like the filmmakers got bored with their own movie. See more 04/13/2022 LOL, the best of now-famous rockstar Alice Cooper!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! See more 08/30/2015 Die hard Alice Cooper fans will love this documentary. I don't think they will learn anything they did not already know however. See more 08/19/2015 What an excellent biography/story of the persona of Alice Cooper, it was wonderful to see the real story of Alice .. and the person Vincent who has come so far, what an incredible Journey to Home. See more 03/23/2015 While informative and telling to a point that would please any huge fan, the way that the documentary flows and designs is truly brilliant. See more 12/31/2014 I quite liked this documentary, but I'm a fan. It tells his whole story, with a lot of focus on his origins which i wasn't really aware of. There's lots of interesting pictures and footage I hadn't seen before. Interesting to be reminded that his show in Toronto where he threw the chicken into the audience was really the moment where he became a superstar. The only thing I wish is that it showed the current interviews, rather than just voiceovers. It was also interesting to learn that for a while he was best friends with Bernie Taupin, Elton John's writing partner. Check it out! See more Read all reviews
