Absolutely amazing

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

It is no spoiler who Grant Hart is until you see this film. This film is full of quotable lines from the man - and even if you hate Husker Du the lines are tremendous . If I ever was famous I would want to be just like Grant Hart. That is all I can say without spoiling the film. It is a tremendous look inside the mind of a simple guy who influenced people. I am not some huge fan, but the film made me feel like I knew grant Hart my entire life and as if him and I were just talking. I appreciate the film and it's achievement . This film is genius and as a BioDoc it is what may be the best ever. There was an accompanying record for the films release on Record Store Day 2014 and that was PERFECT. One may not realize how Grant Hart was a the front of a movement he created or how he was so influential and if you watch this film you would never know it. Hart's genius , the film's genius is that the man is not what one would expect. He is not bitter, he is not full of himself - Hart is a humble man with much to say. I almost passed out when he brought up the Smashing Pumpkins . The film is a journey to the center of Hart and most people do not know who he is-and I think he is happy with that

This movie gives an amazing insight into the life and mind of ex Husker Du drummer/singer Grant Hart. Hart is in pretty much every frame of the movie but is never dull or boring. He's a fascinating complex character and his music used shows what an underrated and talented songwriter he is. Filling a movie with one subject like this could be problematic at times but the director gives us the feel of actually sitting with Grant, you feel a connection with him and at times his honesty really knocks you back. I would recommend this movie to anyone with a love of great rock music or an interest into the workings of a true artist.

If you're looking for your standard paint by numbers documentary format for just another average dull musician, then this movie is NOT for you!If instead you're interested in a vivid self portrait of one of music's most original and non-compromising artists of the last 30 years, whose pioneering band (Hüsker Dü) laid the foundation of a lot of modern music without much financial award, then I'd heartily recommend you catch up on the life and times of Grant Hart.The movie is told entirely by Grant, in his own very honest words, but is neither an ego trip nor a score settling exercise. We hear and see Grant today, as well as through a variety of flashback interviews, photographs and concert footage. Where the documentary breaks from convention is in not always conforming to the normal chronological structure when telling its story. By jumping around in time it keeps the viewer engaged on themes, rather than by the over used "album by album" approach. This is after all Grant's story, and not a Hüsker Dü documentary.The timing of the movie couldn't be better – Grant has just released a magnificent double album in 2013 to strong critical reviews. After many years, seemingly in the wilderness, this movie gives Grant a new day rising day in the sun, and hopefully more people will seek out his music because of it.

I've been a huge Husker Du fan since 1989 so sadly missed out on getting to see them live but watching this movie about the less celebrated songwriter Grant Hart (who has lived in the shadow of Bob Mould since the band split in 1988) felt special and exciting.Grant Hart is without doubt a true artist, an intellectual and a great songwriter and musician. In interviews I've read from Hart since Husker split there often seems to be a bitterness towards Mould albeit expressed in a very poetic way but interestingly in the film he seems largely positive about his old hardcore comrade.The film is lovingly put together and excellently crafted and combines lots of Husker footage with a look right through his career. Hart has an outsiders perspective on life and is a rugged individualist but his sweetness comes through in the film when he expresses sadness at his past drug problems and he beautifully describes how the spirit of his mother lives on and what Patti Smith means to him whom he calls a goddess.Hart also reaches out to Mould saying lets 'forget 1987' (when things got bad) giving us hope of a Husker reunion one day. I do hope so! I was lucky enough to see the London premiere of this film in Piccadilly today and there was a Q & A with Gorman the director afterwards. A great guy and clearly a big fan of both Husker and the Replacements who has a very warm regard for Grant Hart.Overall this is an excellent document of the life and times of Grant Hart and redresses the balance in the post-Husker world which has been Mould dominated. More importantly it will stand as a legacy to Hart long after he has gone. Well done Gorman.
