Audience Member Amazing documentary about The Go-Go's! Really interesting to learn the story of how they started out. They are a very special group of ladies!! And one of the greatest bands ever!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review dave d What a nifty documentary that felt authentic and not a whitewashing of history. A refreshing trip back in time for the all-female pop band, The Go-Gos. If you're into 80s rock you'll like the inside story. There are some candid tales in this heartfelt journey. You have to love a doc where even the people who may be part of the history, but may not like the central figures are honest about the good times and the bad times. A fantastic film! Final Score: 8.8/10 Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Actually better than the band. Served as a great tour of the late 70's early 80's LA punk and Indi scene. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie is a great story of not only the origins and formation of one of the greatest rock and roll bands of all time but also a great story of friendships and sisterhood and the bonds friends make and how through adversity that bond is always there!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member Great doc about the early days until their original breakup of this band. I want to see more. The movie ends at 1984. Fun footage, and excellent interviews. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Read all reviews
