An American Prayer

Rating: 10/10 (6 January 2009)

Visually stunning, very graphic lewd at times, but hey this is the 60's and early 70's , peace love dope all that stuff, where would i start well, i have a little bit of a bias being an avid Morisson fan , and the Doors for 20 years. i think that Oliver Stone did do a decent job, i don't think he captured everything there was to say about the Doors, rather i think that he did a broad general overview of the Doors. Val Kilmer folks if for no other movie he ever did this is the one that will knock you're socks off completely,, he is better in this than Heat . He sounds just like Morisson,, I really thought that Meg Ryan for the character for Pamela was an odd choice,, but it didn't work out too bad,, it is a wonderful trip,, hearing all of those classic and some not so classic doors songs in the movie,, yeah the movie is long,, and follows Jim's childhood to his death,, follows the band somewhat,, and Pamela,, a great movie , but i think you need to have lived a little and had some life experiences before y ou can completely understand a movie like this,,, great job for everyone involved in the picture,, i think Jim would be proud.
