Plot outline: A documentary of Irish rock group U2's 1987-88 tour of North America.
Comment: As a concert documentary, "Rattle and Hum" is second to none; however, as a movie it doesn't quite make the grade. It is widely understood that it was a mistake for U2 to hype this as a cinematic experience equal to a great narrative film; there's no story and sadly, little insight to the personalities and music-making process of U2. However, what "Rattle and Hum" DOES provide is a brilliant look at the communally emotional experience that U2 provides in concert. The cinematography is absolutely outstanding, and the sound is glorious (Bad and Where the Streets Have No Name shine in particular). This film in retrospect operates as a wonderfully produced, engaging snapshot of the band in the late 80's, before the U2 of the 90's emerged. It's a must-see for any fans of U2, and fans of legendary music by legendary bands.
