Film Reviews by JB

Woeful. The worst film I've rented from Cinema Paradise in three years and three hundred titles. The only way to approach this is through your 'So bad it's good' goggles. Fine for cheap laughs on a very wet afternoon.

Self-indulgent to the power of 1,000 would do it. The rehearsal sequences are revealing and well-chosen; the political chapters are clunky, contrived and to modern eyes amateurish.

For an insight into the making of one of the Stones' greatest tracks, reach for this film. My advice is, fast forward each time a group of 'revolutionaries' hoves into view.

Not Godard at his best.
