Pink Floyd: Behind the Wall

What a mess!

Far too much time spent on every detail of the bands friendships and holidays in the early days to begin with.

The first 3 quarters of this cowpat of a documentary limps on like a wounded animal through some band history not to be cared for by even the most avid 'Floyd fan.

To make matters worse each interview and scene is interspersed with renditions of the bands music, rather than obtaining the rights to use the actual songs. This becomes infuriating after a while. Not to mention the narrator making several inaccuracies throughout, including stating "the band has sold over a billion albums worldwide". I wouldn't be surprised if she ended the documentary by asking "Oh and by the way, which ones Pink?"

Pink Avoid!
