A good movie

I'm not a huge fan of the Rolling Stones but I would watch anything directed by Martin Scorese so I thought I should check this one out. First of all, even though I'm not a fan, I have the upmost respect for the Rolling Stones and their legacy and I think they are way more interesting than the (boring) Beattles. Eventually, I thought it was a pretty good concert movie, no more, no less than that. It helps that Scorsese is calling in the shots and thanks to his directing we get a great intimate visual experience of the Stones live. And even though they are sure getting old, the Rolling Stones are not kidding when they are on stage. I especially enjoyed Mick Jagger who is the ultimate stage performer, in my opinion. The guy is constantly in motion, dancing, jumping, shouting to the crowd. Nothing short of amazing. To conclude, I thought it was pretty good and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you are a fan of the Rolling Stones.
