Review of Metallica: Some Kind of Monster (2004) by Sean G — 05 Jul 2009
Very solid documentary about the recording sessions for Metallica's album, "St. Anger." The record is with me problems, ranging from the departure of bassist Jason Newstead to James Hetfield's substance abuse.
It's interesting to see the whole process of recording an album and how things work over time. The film does have some issues though as it really breezes over the Napster issue and it's hard not to think of Lars Ulrich and James Hetfield as whiny diva's at times.
Still, if you're a music fan, you'll want to check out this documentary as it's engrossing, raw, and a really good flick.
