Summary: A video combination of different aspects of Radiohead
Review: This video is probably the best video for Radiohead fans if you want to get to know the band a little more. It contains more than a couple concerts, but also a brief history on how they made it to the top. Other than that it shows what the band does before they do a concert. Finally it reveals some rare songs and a music video. I reccomend this video to any Radiohead fan. I liked it a lot mainly because it doesn't get boring. You can watch it many times and still like it. I hope that they make another one soon.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: NOT ENOUGH RADIO HEAD
Review: I WAS LOOKING FOR COMPLETE MUSIC FROM RADIO HEAD. I WANT TO HEAR A LIVE VERSION OF "I'AM A CREEP" THAT WENT FROM BEGINNING TO END. I AM A LITTLE OLDER NOW, FANCY CAMERA EDITING WITH RADIO HEADS COOL MUSIC DOESN'T DO A THING FOR ME. CHERRISH THE COMPACT DISK MUSIC AND WAIT FOR A MUSIC VIDEO INSTEAD OF A CULT VIDEO.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: pURe RadIOHEad delIGHT and FRozeN winTer SH*t
Review: Obscure, tainted and relentless. Radiohead isn't a bubble gum band (meaning they're not just easy listening) They are a band you put headphones on and look up at the sky and listen to. Their videos should be no different. At times confusing, and at times too much. But with brilliant editing (the beginning and Tokyo scene especially) the reality of the No Surprises video (complete with inaudible but visible Thom cussing) and the way the ban blend with one another but have a problem with other folks this video is something to be cherished and not long forgotten.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A origional look on Radiohead and rock music
Review: When I first heard that Radiohead's new documentary showed little concert footage and more interviews and press conferences, I was expecting the worst. I really enjoyed such documentaries as Nirvana's "Live Tonight Sold Out!" and The Smashing Pumpkins "Vieuaphoria" (i think I spelled it right), because of the crazed rock and roll lifestyle the bands showed. I was hoping for that from Radiohead but got something much better.

Gee created the kind of documentary that goes well with Radiohead's music. It shows uneasy takes on car tunnels, strange alien lighting, and most of it is done in black-and-white, so, very artsy, which I am really into. I especially liked how Thom sang Creep with a great deal of sarcasm.

So, if you want to see Jonny smashing his guitar against his amp, this movie isn't for you, but if you were able to connect with OK Computer, it's your kind of film.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: People say I'm cool... and I liked it.
Review: Watching Thom try for the whole "No Surprises" thing was disturbing. At times this film made you sick to your stomach. (The whole arena rock thing gets me.) Did it make me not want to be a rock star... HELL NO. ps. There was just a little too much "Creep" in the film.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Best Band Documentary I've Seen
Review: Just One Complaint: The Dialogue is mixed so low that it is almost unintelligible. Can this horrible mix be fixed in future editions?

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A Coup for Rock Films
Review: For fans of the band's "OK Computer" and its virtual "third side" (the "How Am I Driving" EP), this film presents a peculiar kind of pleasure, and is a real coup for films about bands. Director Grant Gee manages to translate the fragmented yet lyrical tone of the albums into the visual medium, including (naughty sneaky) cutting up or away from key parts of most of the performances, thereby denying us the music's emotional release while at the same time strengthening the film's bleak outlook. (It should encourage no one to leave the quieter desperation of their ordinary lives.) Instead of being hyperbolic about the magnified alienation of "rock life" (cf. "Pink Floyd: The Wall"), it confirms that the depressed romantics of the LPs have actually expressed a vital, living emotional truth, which is why we liked the records in the first place. P.S. Guys, don't worry about the Floyd comparisons. Any art that abstract (yet still so oddly moving) is going to be called prog, and beats all hell out of the fridge buzz of alternarock.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: The reviews are a little generous.
Review: This video shows how depressing it is to be in a famous rock band touring the world. The point is well taken. The video is not spectacular. A little too much Colin and Ed, not enough Thom and Jonny. Much of the dialogue cannot be understood.
