Give or take a few clips i've seen online over the years, last night was the first time i've actually sat and watched the film as a whole (it was on TV)
The reason i'd never bothered before was simply that having seen the band on the last tour, I just thought 'well it wont be worth watching'
How right I was. It's filmed lovely and all that, but the music ?. Jesus wept
How did they get that past Jagger before releasing it ?
The guitar playing, or lack of it and the mix is absolutely @#$%& horrendous. At times Keef and Ronnie seem to be playing different songs, that's when they haven't stopped playing completely.
Jagger does hold it together, but it does make it all a bit of a sad cabaret with Chuck's cheesey keyboards and the unecessary backing musos.
Maybe it is a good thing that there's no new tour planned.

I remember seeing this at cinema in 2008; I tried to walk out, but the people I went with refused me to go, so I forced myself to stay - and just barely made it through

We walked out when Keith made an attempt to a solo on Sympathy.
