Add a CommentAll previous comments glorify Jimmy Page and Jack White, but everybody fails to mention how awe inspiring the Edge's guitar playing (especially his solos) really is. That said I highly recommend this and all of U2's concerts.
Very well done documentary movie. A pleasure to watch. I would recommend this movie for all to see. No fast forwarding on this one. A++ DVD
Great historical footage of James Page and the brilliance of Jack White as a contemporary white electric blues man is revealing and inspiring
As interesting and talented the two seniors are in this movie, Jack White is the real character in this flick. The man has a relentless dedication to the raw, organic roots of the blues movement and expresses it well.
A lot of fun. The moment where Page plays "Whole Lotta Love" is excellent, I defy any fan to maintain a straight face.
This is a movie about the GUITAR and how it change Jimmy Page, Jack White, and The Edge; NOT their life stories. One of my favorite parts, is when Jimmy starts playing "Whole Lotta Love", and Jack and The Edge have this look of awe on their face, seeing this legend play this classic right in front of them. If you don't watch the commentary after watching the film itself, you're missing out. "It Might Get Loud" is by far one of my favorite documentaries.
I loved this film, especially Jack White. It's not a concert film, but there is lot of great footage. It's not a biography, but there's lots of interesting background. It's about the music, and why you play the music, and specifically why the electric guitar. If you get that, you'll get the film.
moondogz; Highly overrated, jumps around like a MTV Rock Vid on a slow boat to China. Considering the Players and their rep, I'd say the director gets a big fat F.
Dissapointing.I was expecting jamming and collaborative guitar work. Only one effort and that was a song by The Band and it was done acoustically.
Yeah, the back stories are more interesting of the three. The ballyhooed jam session is pretty underwhelming.
