  This film tries to be far too informational, but comes off as pure hilarity due to the fact that the director has no contacts that are prepared to speak or any warrants to film anywhere, getting kicked out of every location he goes to. It really made me wonder, and raised some questions as to whether he truly murdered himself or not, but the fact that you laugh during every interview just makes the film not very engaging, and for that reason I almost hated this movie. It was nice to see footage of Kurt Cobain before his death, but they completely manipulate it, only showing what they feel is necessary and not what the audience most likely wants to see. I must say that this is a very messy film that barely fits the category of documentary.I will not be watching this ever again.

  Nick Broomfield, controversially creates the documentary that many others have previously tried to do, looking into the many conspiracy theories surrounding the death of Kurt Cobain. I guess it depends on your opinion on the subject as to whether this documentary is intrusive to Courtney Love's personal life or not, but her Lawyers obviously made it difficult for certain things to be looked into (again people's opinions on that obviously vary). Whilst I am a fan of Broomfield's work and tend to find his topics for documentarys of interest, some of the interviews here were with people who were clearly high and it became a little frustrating to watch as they stumble for speech and thought. Interesting, perhaps a little bias (again depending on opinion) but obviously feels a little unfinished.

  Uh. It makes me wonder, I suppose.

  I can't believe this film even got to be shown to people. Incompetent director Broomfield chisels a conspiracy theory into what it really is: complete and total bullshit. This is an offensive, amateur and inexcusably sloppy effort that deserves no attention whatsoever. When… More
  I can't believe this film even got to be shown to people. Incompetent director Broomfield chisels a conspiracy theory into what it really is: complete and total bullshit. This is an offensive, amateur and inexcusably sloppy effort that deserves no attention whatsoever. When dealing with material of such high importance and seriousness, I don't think it's unreasonable to expect a little bit of intelligence on the director's part.
