It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Can aging rockers renew their spirit and use their music to ignite America in a different war. From the song "Ohio" after Kent State, they travel across America with new music and a new war.Mike Cerre, who chronicled Vietnam and was embedded in Iraq travels with the band to report what happens.The title of this documentary is perfect as we have been here before and here we are again in the same mess as another president tries to show his manhood.But, can change occur if enough people rally in support of bringing our boys home? It is doubtful, and you risk pissing a lot of people off.Good documentary showing the feeling of people over this war and the music of CSNY.

The song remains the same for Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young. If you want to listen to a lethal dose of Bush bashing interspersed with some nice melodies, this movie has it all. There's no doubt that Neil Young is sincere is his efforts to protest the Iraq War and he's got plenty of company. Unfortunately, turning a CSNY concert into a protest rally wasn't what a lot of fans expected when they bought their tickets. To be fair, Young makes sure that the sour reactions of many fans are caught on film along with the rest of the festivities. He also plays up the notion that he has the utmost respect for our fighting men and women. Whether any of our service personnel would buy into this type of concert, however, is another matter. Since Young is a Canadian and was never subjected to the Selective Service Draft in the 1960's, he's been free to voice his opinion without any repercussions. It would've been far more courageous for this band (and Young) to play this material in front of our troops than an accommodating audience. As far as the music here, it's a pretty good performance if you can stomach the leftist nonsense. The boys can still harmonize even if a few of the high notes are missing. So far, the movie hasn't made an impact at the box office. That will happen when you alienate half of the viewing public from the start. For a one-sided favorable review of this film, one can always turn on MSNBC and Keith Olbermann. Since the film has made less than $100,000 nationally, Young and company need all the help they can get. To paraphrase Shakespeare, "these fellows doth protest too much."

Caught this at the Traverse City Film Festival and have to say I enjoyed it much more than I expected to. It's not just about the music, but this godforsaken war we are mired in and the footage of Iraq along with the interviews with various veterans who contacted Neil Young following the release of his album Living With War that inspired the tour is all very moving. Interspersed throughout is footage from the Vietnam Era that provides a potent illustration of how similar the current mess has become to that infamous quagmire. History really does repeat itself. Comedically, I also enjoyed the audience interviews in Atlanta among the dozens that walked out because it was "too political." what in the hell did they expect on the Freedom of Speech Tour in an election year? Very funny stuff.

If you are seeing it get away for a few hours you do and you don't. CSNY is still one of the best bands ever. It's always wonderful to see a great rock film. It's horrible to hear the same pathetic, ignorant war mongers rant about an illegal invasion making them safe. Stephen Stills helped so much with the last elections. I hope the film does the same this election. After seeing bush win the last two elections I have little hope but I will vote. When the DVD comes out it will make a great addition for those who collect concert films. I went to France a couple days after the war broke out. Paul McCartney had an entire audience there singing "All We Are Saying Is Give Peace a Chance." So I expect the film to do really well in France also. They can't take away free speech even if they can listen to our phone calls! So what listen all away. This is a great movie and we do not want this war.
