Wow.
Just saw this on the IMAX screen in Sparks, NV.My ears are still ringing.
Less a documentary than it is a mind-melting melee of sound and vision; it mixes archival footage, animation, and voiceovers into a blazing assault on the senses.
While more or less unfolding in a linear narrative, it is by no means comprehensive, starting at Bowie’s Ziggy period and then zig-zagging loosely through some of his other personas and career milestones.
For the most part it is largely intense and engaging, yet it does tend to drag in spots. However, the slow moments are easily overshadowed by numerous chill inducing bouts of emotional bliss.
Highly recommended.
