Agreed, this is a very poorly constructed documentary. I read a three page (small print) article a few years back that was infinitely more entertaining, and had better factual material about Axl, the man, than this sad production. The only worthwhile contributor is Malcolm Dome and even he hasn't written anything about Gn'R in almost 15 years.
I seem to remember James Hetfield (a member of Metallica said this anyway, I'm pretty sure but not certain that it was James), saying that when Axl took his psychotropic medications he was the coolest, smartest and sweetest guy that you could hope to meet but, like the mistake that many people with organic mental concerns make, once he was feeling good he would stop taking the pills and turn into a raving asshole again.
Axl has mental concerns that need to be medicated, it's as simple as that.
UYI was a non-event, let`s embrace the reality, GNR were a 1 LP band = AFD, that was it, they ran dry creatively in `88/89 & the rest was just touring for $, bitching at each other & waiting to implode.
@atogers agreed, except that during the UYI era, he was going through a very hard time...just note the lyrics & even the videos. IMO, this was the last of their good albums.

All these artists from Indiana (Axl, Michael Jackson, etc) become reclusive, paranoid & control freaks! (just joking, I lived in IN).
@prodigy: I see. The reason I ask is, because what GN'R put out were TWO DOUBLE-Albums. "Illusion 1" were 2 vinyl-discs and "Illusions 2" were also 2 vinyl-discs, and I wonder why I never heard about the Beatles doing also so. (of course the "Illusion"-CD's were "only" 1-discs)
when actually a band gets inducted to the Rn'R hall of fame.when the band is alive or when it's gone?cause unfortunately before im a 47 (now i'm 13)a reunion ain't gonna happen
yo pienso qe la banda no solo se estaba desmoronando cuando IZZY se marcho, se empezo a caer cuando ya no se aguantaban no podes entregar la mejor musica si realmente no estas conforme y sea lo que sea , no se maten en buscar porque se separaron y bla bla, fueron una excelente banda , la tengo aca , ami no me importa quien arruino a quien , solo me importa que su musica siga escuchandome porque es excelente y nunca escuchee nada igual.
PLEASE DO A REUNION TOUR!!,...there have been rumors latley ,can u imagine Izzy, Axl, Slash,Duff, and Steven/Matt on the same stage,...pure heaven :-)
FUCK AXL ROSE!

Axl is a complex man.
In many ways he is awesome. In other ways he`s a relentless asshole.
He really got a Messiah complex during the Use Your Illusion era. And after that he crashed and burned, just like he sings about. (Nightrain on AFD)

@atogers you are absolutely right but I think Nightrain is a whole different story - it's a song about drinking and drugs

I agree. When Izzy left, GNR lost their backbone and the band quickly fell apart.
