About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a raw, uncomfortable music drama about addiction, ego, and the cost of success, with a polarizing style similar to Jimi: All Is by My Side; Not for you if you need a likable lead or a tight, fast pace.
Pros: intense lead performance; raw, immersive energy; memorable music moments | Cons: hard to watch; uneven structure; feels overlong
