Sick Product of a Sick System

It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

There's definitely something very catchy about this film. John is multi-talented: great songwriter, great musician, humorist, philosopher. Extremely entertaining.However, there's a huge minus that ruins this for me: his voice. No, he's not off-key, but his voice is so scratchy, that it's impossible for me to enjoy it. He sounds like he has laryngitis. He can barely sing with his voice in this condition. I would not pay to hear someone perform with their voice in this condition, and I think it's a big chutzpah for him to charge people admission.Understand: I enjoy singers like Robert Plant, Jon Anderson, Steve Tyler. Their voices may be scratchy -- but they still have some body. John's thin voice is painful for me to listen to.

Writing his own songs, playing guitar, and conversing with his audience through his music, John Mayer has proved that he is capable of much more than 'Your Body is a Wonderland'. Any critic worthy of hearing should see 'Any Given Thursday' before they fully make their minds up about John.AGT is a taped performance of one of John's concerts. It's almost better than being front center at a concert (better only because you can pause and get up for snacks without missing a thing). He plays nearly all of his songs live (and wonderfully) as well as some new ones.AGT is one of my most prized DVDs and a must-see for any music fan.
