Twenty years ago, Kurt Cobain was found dead of an apparent gunshot wound to the head. The world was told it was a suicide, but evidence would lead many people to believe it might be otherwise. The film investigates the possibilities that exist that Kurt Cobain's death might not have been a suicide, that the Seattle Police Department rushed their verdict, and the global media perpetuated lies and misinformation fed to them by Courtney Love that created the belief in many that Cobain killed himself—but when revealed to be lies—lead many to now question what happened.

SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Just to make clear: Cobain is one of my favorite people i lived among in this planet. This documentary is so bad, is funny. Aesthetically it is awful, no taste at all like a cheap crime tv show, you must really lack talent to make something THAT bad, considering you have all of these exhibits (true of false) and still make this conservative, inhuman piece of work. Putting the horrible photography aside, putting the horrible acting (this is a mean person look the actor, he/she is trying so hard to show you that his/her character is so mean you would understand it even on mute) also aside, the "director" should be ashamed portraying Courtney Love as vicious by using cheap puritanical shots of "people making out in the same room with her" (evil duh?), "her friend touched her in a -probably- erotic way" (a bisexual probably? What a nasty person, duh?), a junkie (as also Kurt,duh?). This is insulting at least and pure stupidity if the director took by the book the descriptions of Mr Grant - who is anyway focused in a purpose, find justice or cash a death, and, you know, i don't really care, because demonizing people through their weaknesses, habits, orientation and other paleolithic, human-hating point of views is pure TRASH and all of people made this should be ashamed. Cobain would spit on this first, even murdered.

Absolutely shocked at the contents of this film. (contains spoilers)The "cadaveric spasm" was never mentioned in the SPD reports like Tom Grant claims. The fingerprints were not legible, this does not mean that the gun was wiped down. There were seven prints analyzed, but they were not clear enough to be lifted. If there was no skin oil, partial prints, and smudges from his skin then that would be red flag. But that is not the case.Janis J Parker examined the actual suicide note for two weeks after Cobain's body was found. She confirmed that it was written entirely by Cobain's hand. Handwriting experts have questioned the suicide note, but have not been able to come to a firm conclusion because they were not examining the actual note. Some of these handwriting experts (examining the copy) did say it was entirely written by Cobain, none of them have concluded that it was not.The credit card was delayed. The officers that Tom Grant questioned about the questionable activity on the card after Cobain was found talked to the Seafirst bank, whom said that the credit card was delayed. Tom Grant was not happy with the statement, and still ignores it to this day. If you look at the top line of the credit card log provided by Grant - the first line reads "4/2/94 / $478.00 / DELTA AIR" this is proof that the credit card was indeed delayed because Cobain bought the plane ticket on April 1, not April 2. The toxicology results that Tom Grant mentions in the film - cannot actually be the true toxicology results. The toxicology reports were to be released to the Cobain family three weeks after Cobain's body was found, as a police officer stated to the media that day. The newspaper (that Tom Grant is trusting) released the "results" of the toxicology reports just SEVEN DAYS later, from an "anonymous source". This is impossible since toxicology results are usually known after 4-6 weeks, because it is an extremely thorough process that must be done extremely precisely. Tom Grant is trusting an unreliable source.Even if these toxicology reports were correct, Cobain would have still been unable to overdose - or be incapacitated. The lethal dose for opiate NAIVE individual is 75 - 600 mg, an opiate naives individual is someone that has a lack of experience with opiates and heroin. There have been several legal cases and studies in which heroin addicts have tolerated more than 1800 mg of heroin, and not even felt sick. Average daily dose for a heroin addict is 491 mg. Kurt Cobain had 225 mg in his system.As you can see, Tom Grant's logic is absolutely flawed. I am disgusted with this movie and it's claims.

This was seriously the best documentary I've seen in a very long time. I wasn't even what I would consider a die hard Cobain or Nirvana fan, but enjoyed a couple songs. After seeing this it brings to light how much the Seattle Police department messed up or shall I say did nothing to uncover Kurt Cobain's murder. There are so many professionals, federal employees, researchers, ex officials.... and even Kurt and Courtney's lawyer and good friend that put the pieces together and a "suicide" did not add up! Even the recording of Love herself... made her and her ex-boyfriend aka nanny Cali look totally guilty. I can't believe our Justice System has failed Kurt so obviously and badly! I hope this movie helps the Seattle police department reopen the case so Kurt can have some peace and truth to his passing. An eye opening must see!!!!!

I have always heard the Cobain murder theories. While I found them interesting and deep down wished it was true, the information I found was always so all over the place I did not really follow up reading up on it. This film puts it all down, with actual audio recordings from Grants interactions with Courtney and others linked to Kurt.The experts that give their opinions on the investigation and how it was handled by Seattle PD are very fascinating. These don't appear to be a bunch of wackos with tin foil hats, these are legit experts in the fields of forensics, homicide investigation, and police procedure.This was very eye opening to me and as a Nirvana fan since 92' very sad in a way. This film puts the pieces together and it is hard to ignore the evidence presented. I do not know why critics are crapping all over this.
