Review of Sound City (2013) by Steve T — 20 Apr 2013
The movie has no focus; is it about the studio, analogue vs. digital, friendship, or Dave Grohl making an absolutely self indulgent and boring record on an old Neve that many other bands happend to make great records on.
The movie spends so little time on each subject, the viewer has no time to care about any one of the little points the movie miserably fails at its attempt to make. Or the viewer is buried in the minutia either boring interpersonal relationships of people the viewer hasn't been given a reason to care about, or boring interviews of boring people talking about the same boring ideas that music purists have been peddling for the last 30 years, building up to the predictable sob story turn; Pro Tools killed Sob City.
An utterly boring movie.
