Being a huge fan of TMBG I am obviously biased but I thoroughly enjoyed this movie! I admit that if you are not a TMBG fan you probably aren't going to be as impressed with it (though if you are not a fan I am not sure why you would want to see it.) I don't know that it would n... read more
I'm not sure how interesting it would be for non-TMBG fans, but for those already in the fold, it's a real treat. A fascinating insight into songwriting, popular music, and of course, They Might Be Giants
A Documentary about one of my favorite bands, They Might Be Giants. If you like their music you must see this movie.
I've learned that this movie might turn away people who haven't heard of They Might be Giants before, but is a huge excitement for fans.

Their sheer existence affirms that all things corporate and bland don't always win out -- that music can be intimate, political and alienating, sometimes all on the same album. Full Review
A gift for those already in the fold, for those who get the joke and just want to savor it with other like-minded fans. Full Review
Does ample justice to the complexity, even profundity, of a creative collaboration that has brought deep joy and meaning to generations of fans throughout a career that just entered its third decade.
