Alicia I love this movie so much

ShangLuda Admirable film.

Donald Seymour This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

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

bgills-1 Caught this at the Traverse City Film Festival and have to say I enjoyed it much more than I expected to. It's not just about the music, but this godforsaken war we are mired in and the footage of Iraq along with the interviews with various veterans who contacted Neil Young following the release of his album Living With War that inspired the tour is all very moving. Interspersed throughout is footage from the Vietnam Era that provides a potent illustration of how similar the current mess has become to that infamous quagmire. History really does repeat itself. Comedically, I also enjoyed the audience interviews in Atlanta among the dozens that walked out because it was "too political." what in the hell did they expect on the Freedom of Speech Tour in an election year? Very funny stuff.

Katz5 Once again, Neil Young, a Canadian, sums up the mood of the U.S. (post 9/11 and post 2003 Iraq invasion) perfectly. I felt uneasy watching this film. The footage of CSNY is wonderful---the elusive Crosby, the clumsy but still vital Stills, the optimist Nash, the rabble-rousing Young. The footage from Iraq is shocking. But the most troubling in the film is the Atlanta segment. After nearly eight years of an absolute failure of an administration, one which invaded a nation that never attacked us (how many 9/11 terrorists were from Iraq, again???), I find it shocking that so many people back this President and Vice President, No Questions Asked. Neil Young directs the film (under a pseudonym) and includes footage of Atlanta "fans", angered by the political direction of the concert, demonstrating their disdain towards CSNY in colorful ways (finger gestures and many four letter words). My question to them is WHY would they even see the concert in the first place? Did they ever bother to listen to the lyrics of "Ohio," "For What it's Worth" and "Carry On?" Young could have easily excised that footage out, but he includes it, which leads me to ask if Toby Keith made a documentary, and had opposing views were captured on film, would he include that in the final product? My guess is no—the right point-of-view is the "RIGHT" point-of-view, and no matter how many lies and cover ups are exposed in the Bush administration, these people will stick with them, like Hitler and Goebbels in the bunker. But I digress—this film, like "No End in Sight," "Why We Fight" and "The Dixie Chicks: Shut Up and Sing" before it, is vital viewing for any real American patriot. Thomas Jefferson said that the first act of a true patriot is to question its leaders. And it's safe to say, Jefferson and the other Founding Fathers would be turning over in their graves if they saw how Bush and company have destroyed our country. Thank you Neil Young.

Gloriapower If you are seeing it get away for a few hours you do and you don't. CSNY is still one of the best bands ever. It's always wonderful to see a great rock film. It's horrible to hear the same pathetic, ignorant war mongers rant about an illegal invasion making them safe. Stephen Stills helped so much with the last elections. I hope the film does the same this election. After seeing bush win the last two elections I have little hope but I will vote. When the DVD comes out it will make a great addition for those who collect concert films. I went to France a couple days after the war broke out. Paul McCartney had an entire audience there singing "All We Are Saying Is Give Peace a Chance." So I expect the film to do really well in France also. They can't take away free speech even if they can listen to our phone calls! So what listen all away. This is a great movie and we do not want this war.

lyedwab I was at one of these shows in August 2006, and it was THE best rock & roll concert I've attended in my life, out of many.This is especially high praise for CSNY, because while I've always liked them, there are many artists about whom I've been much more passionate.The politics were right out front, which was fine with me, given my agreement with them. The on-stage video clips (and other staging devices) detailing the costs of the war in "blood and treasure" were terrific in their depressing way.The quality of the music was utterly stunning. I've heard bits of CSN/CSNY live before, and wasn't expecting much. Tight playing, good arrangements, GUITARS IN TUNE (!), and wonderful singing. Also, TREMENDOUS variety of material from the group's, and its members', solo careers. As advertised, the show featured every song from Young's then-new album, "Living With War". The album itself was marred by a grotesquely awkward combination of hard rock instrumentation with CHOIR vocals. This production was so bad that I couldn't tell if the songs were any good!HOWEVER, the point here is that the "Living With War" songs were absolutely fantastic, when adapted for performance by CSNY. The supporting musicians were all Neil Young veterans, and I had the distinct impression that he was serving as ringleader of the entire operation. However, all four of C, S, N and Y were featured equally, to great effect.I love Neil, I love the guts they showed in really busting chops about the war back in 2006, before it was quite so clear what a fantastic blunder this has been, and I'm ready for whatever political content appears in the film.Let's just hope the incredible music is not underrepresented.I'm bound and determined to see this thing, hopefully in a theatre, and ultimately, I'll own a copy on DVD.
