This documentary's got everything!I was lucky enough to be shooting live shots of the amazing Nils Lofgren for A&M in 1977, TP & The Heartbreakers were the unknown support act, they blew everyone away and I got some great shots that night. Peter Bogdanovitch's 4 hour documentary is without doubt one of the most insightful and revealing rock documentaries ever made, it shows every side of the music business from the highs of the sublime music to the lows of the greedy record companies. The behind the scenes recording studio sessions and the candid interviews with everyone involved over a 30 year period are a true revelation and tell the extraordinary story of one of the greatest, most influential and controversial musicians of all time!.Score: 5/5

Absorbing Film, Great MusicWe watched the film over two nights, having started late the first night. We wanted to stay up to finish it the first night, but at age 70, that was too hard. We had seen him twice in concert years ago - once when he played with Dylan. The film draws you into his life with his band and the other musicians who joined him and presents an aboslutely remarkable portrait of him, though I thought it underplayed his addiction and the danger that had. Still, I was left for a new appreciation for Tom Petty as a man and as a musician. This is a "must see" film..Score: 5/5

Fantastic!A wonderful film chronicling Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers, from humble Florida beginning to âSaving Grace.â A must have for any Tom Petty fan..Score: 5/5
Great Film Tom!This has got to be one of the best music docs, i have seen quite of the band and the man known as tom petty and the heartbreakers, you will travel with tom and band through the stages of life, see what happened and how they got the band together. this is a very honest and raw account of the artist. it'll knock your sock off. For Parents this is a great rock doc, if you or someone is into classic rock or tom petty fan, however this doc although it says Not rated, i'd give it a TV-MA because of the language throughout some of the interviews with key people, so if you can look passed that then, fine. but i just thought i'd give a word of warning that's all..Score: 5/5

Simply amazingBest thing I've ever had the privledge to watch !!.Score: 5/5
Still not a big fanI like some of Pettyâs songs. I just find him as a person very uncool. He never strikes me as a rock star, more of a gardener or a parts guy at a Chrysler dealership. What I found ironic is that my favourite song by him is âjamming meâ but he hated that album. More than anything, Tom, please get a new hair style. The long straight hair just doesnât do it for you. Could you at least have it permed?.Score: 3/5
