Good 3.0
What was supposed to be a story about a Metallica roadie on an urgent mission turns out to be basically a concert film, but Dane DeHaan does give it the ‘ol college try – but didn’t have much of a chance in the aimless and over the top secondary story line. That said, if you are a Metallica fan, or if you have never seen Metallica – its worth checking out as a stream. BTW, my favorite Metallica songs is at the very end, but it is worth the wait. This one gets a good rating because of the music. If I were rating the back-story, it’d get a ‘Pretty Bad’.

Perfect 5.0
James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich, Kirk Hammett are like one. They rock-out in tight unison seemingly without much effort, but lots of emotion. I’m not a huge fan, but this was a fine trio to behold. Dane DeHaan wasn’t much more than a pretty face.

OK 2.5
Why did they bother with the back-story? It didn’t add anything, and was a gimmick at best.

Surreal 2.7
The surreal rating is for the back-story. Obviously, the concert was 100% Metallica-au-natural!
