shouldn't have tried

Rating: 6/10 (11 August 2008)

OK so this guy wanted to make a movie on the doors. this is where it starts to go wrong. there's nothing wrong with the movie as such, its actually pretty well done, the script and direction is pretty good. but the point is, val kilmer doesn't even come close to doing jim morrison,or his hair, any justice, and the rest of the cast aren't that awesome either. add to that that kilmer cant sing, and that the movie is 140 minutes long, you have a pretty mediocre effort which doesn't even begin to bring out the charisma of the doors that you're hit with if you just listen to their music or watch recorded concert performances.
only watch if you're a die hard fan who cannot live with the thought that there's a doors movie they haven't watched.
