Twilightfa Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.

pointyfilippa The movie runs out of plot and jokes well before the end of a two-hour running time, long for a light comedy.

Roy Hart If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

chrisetherington Band documentaries are tough, because you want to hear the music and see 30+ years of historical footage, but also hear the story telling and interviews. This documentary does a good job balancing, and doesn't tiptoe around the drugs and lifestyle.

nicebike I am a 'Deadicated' Deadhead, and I also enjoy a good documentary. While most of the Rockumentaries out there are fun to watch, they leave me unsatisfied. The same cannot be said about the film, The Other One, The Long, Strange Trip of Bob Weir. Like a good Jersey- style pizza, or a good Dead concert the film left me yearning for more; very satisfied. As the film delved into the life of Weir as the Grateful Dead's rhythm guitarist, Jerry Garcia's best friend and a loving father, it also cast a light on his humorous side. Remember when the film's cast members admitted that Weir was the band's 'babe magnet'. Collectively, they lovingly joked about Bob's ability to draw women into his life. Another funny moment was when Weir recalled the time he told his adoptive mother that he wanted to go join, and live, with the Dead, his new family. He said it was like telling her that he was running away with the circus. While there is more to this movie than one can fit within a brief critique the film makes one feel good about being a Deadhead, and a little melancholy that those time are now a wonderful memory. There will never be anything like a Grateful Dead concert.

deaded2 I was not expecting to like this one. I'm a deadhead, seen 120+ shows, tons of tapes, but I don't salivate over everything that comes out with the Dead's name. I'm not a fan of Ratdog and many of Bobby's later tunes struck me wrong, at least initially (Victim, Picasso Moon, Easy Answers, Money, etc... ). I was expecting this to be a bit cheesy but boy was I wrong. A+ material. Well filmed, nice editing, excellent cinematography, extremely well produced. No, it's not The Last Waltz, but it's not a concert film. It really gave me good glimpse into Bob's head, if that's possible. I feel closer to him now (I can't believe I didn't know he was married!! I can't believe he didn't invite me to the wedding!). I **LOVED** it!! I just wish it was longer.I also wish I could buy this. Anyone know where I could purchase an legit copy?

imdb-6252 I've been to roughly 400 Dead shows in my life. To me, Weir was always that guy that flubbed his lines, or shouted "Ha!" a lot. This documentary has completely enlightened me to who Bob is. It also tells a pretty good story of the Grateful Dead and Bob's relationship with Jerry. There are parts of it that will likely bring you to tears. So many unknowns about Bobby have been answered. And I must say that he seems to have a great outlook in life. His head is screwed on nice and tight. I love the way he refers to dying as "checking out".This documentary takes you from the days before he met Jerry all the way to the present and offers a very intimate look into the artist, his music and family life. I'm glad I watched it.
