I saw this movie without any expectations...and I was glad not to have had any...one point which especially disappointed me was the conflict behind the scenes Hendrix experienced with Chas Chandler and Michael Jeffry...Chas, in the movie, was more like Michael Jeffry was in real life and the other way around. The movie however shows very well what the business aspect of the whole music-industry did to Jimi and his ideas and how it destroyed him. Furthermore it was a shame they did not show what the Band of Gypsies actually achieved and how good Hendrix played with those guys...as it is well known that the 1970 new years eve concert at the Filmore East was one of the best Hendrix ever did. Besides that...what a shame shame shame that not one single original recording was used. The acting was pretty OK...besides the concerts and the guitar imitations. I only had some interest going throughout the movie due to my pre-handknowledge to Hendrix and thats about it...not a movie it would see once more. 3 out out of 10 but only because it good that his memory it's kept alive.
