Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

Keeley Coleman The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

fuzzymorals2007 I first heard The Clash when I was in high school and my impression was that there was too much going on musically to get a grip. Too much, too fast for the youngster that I was. Now they rock my ass off. Raw, naked, powerful, and contagious. Joe Strummer is about as close to a hero it gets for me. He hit it. I know this is supposed to be about the movie, but its hard to find people that get Joe and I couldn't resist jumping in. I will watch the movie when I can afford it and also check out the new film about Joe when it comes out. BTW, a few people have mentioned there may have been some foul play surrounding his death. Wasn't he about to do a US tour about the time when many people could have been persuaded not to support the Iraq invasion? I don't know, but I am curious.

johnnyhightest I always said I wasn't so much a Clash fan as I was a Joe Srummer fan. But after watching Let's Rock Again I realize I never really thought much about Joe Strummer the man, only the rock icon. Dick Rude's fateful tribute to Joe gave me an aspect of of an individual who has pretty much run the imaginable gamut of his chosen profession and never lost sight of what made him want to be there in the first place. His amazing mixture of warmth, wit and worldliness is refreshing and reassuring.There are scenes that will have you laughing and crying at the same time with their poignancy and intimacy: Joe passing out hand-written leaflets promoting his band's show in Atlantic City (my god, there are actually people who don't know who he is!); Joe trying to gain access to a NJ radio station to do an interview; and just those quiet moments where he looks thoughtfully with those hangdog eyes of his and spouts pure wisdom.If you never thought about Joe you will like him after seeing this movie. If you liked him, you will love him. And if you love him, you will be absolutely mesmerized.Until the final scene, where it says, "Joe Strummer 1952 - 2002"

crestview306 Heartfelt thanks to Dickie Rude for creating this film and sharing it with those of us who loved and continue to love Joe Strummer so much. I also saw "Let's Rock Again" at AFI Theatre in Silver Spring, Maryland, and personally hosted by Dick Rude. It was as hard for me to sit through this film as it was for Dickie because I still feel so much pain from the loss of Joe. Both of us found ourselves crying in the back of the theatre during the film. Dickie has brought a part of Joe back to us and continues to remind us of what a great force and marvelous human being Joe was. I look forward to the film's release on DVD and recommend that as many people as possible check it out, if not only to continue our remembrance of Joe, but to continue to praise him. He is my only God.

decaffish I saw this at the AFI theater in MD during a documentary film festival. being a huge clash fan and of joe strummer's solo efforts with the mescaleros this was a very personal film to me and i enjoyed it enormously. as i think even the most casual of fans would enjoy the same. only thing i didn't like: wished it went on longer. i guess we could all say the same thing about joe's life. he's so personable, speaks his mind, and just a nice guy you could sit there for a three hour film. he was a true rock hero/legend and all around great human being who's philosophies are seriously needed in today's crumbling society. Hopefully this film will get picked up by a distributor for a DVD release or maybe some more footage could be added to make this feature length so it might see a theatrical run.
