 | Let me just say that I fell in love with Almost Famous when I saw the previews for it about 5 years ago. I new that it was destined to be a great movie and it was. I loved the Original Version but would only let myself watch it like once a year because I was afraid if I watched it too much it would start to lose it's luster.
Anyway, I bought the bootleg version a couple of months ago and put off watching it because I thought that the movie couldn't possibly be any better than I already thought it was.
Damn, was I wrong. Everybody has pretty much covered what features the bootleg version has so I won't go into detail. But, I honestly was pleasantly shocked and surprised at just how wonderful this movie really was.
I highly recommend the Bootleg Version for anyone who is a fan of the regular movie. It definitly changes the movie for the better. Now, I watch the movie about once a week instead of once a year. |

| Great script, great direction, great actors, great everything.
Amazing movie, and definitely in my top 10. I have to recommend this movie who hasn't seen it before, and to those people who haven't seen it, see it now, or else you will live a lonely life. |

| OK, I can dig the cat having been a "rock 'n roll journalist" when he was a kid, but - damn, why does he have to stand there and say "HEY! I'M CAMERON CROWE AND LOOK HOW 'HIP' I AM!" Kate Hudson is stark raving gorgeous (so are the other "band aids,") but I cannot honestly say that I can remember ANYBODY from that era, riding around stoned in a bus and singing...Elton John? Oh, and yeah, I've done a bit of "rock and roll journalism" myself, so, you know, "been there-done that-bought the T shirt-moved on." |

| As a writer I've come along way, and I know how difficult it can be working on a subject that is as dangerous as Rock and Roll, and learning how music is life and love. This film was great, I took a dull Sunday afternoon to watch this movie and I was entertained. |

| I absolutely love this movie. However, I want to warn you that two of these reviews for this movie are incorrectly posted to this link. You'll find two reviews which should have been posted to the 3-Disc Unrated Director's Cut Version. When I ordered this product, I thought I was getting a killer bargain for under $10. However, what arrived today wasn't what I thought that I had paid for. I received the basic Widescreen DVD, and not the 3-Disc Director's Cut Unrated DVD which two reviewers spoke of. I think you should be aware of this. Now I'm faced with trying to go through the hassle of returning this item, and paying an additional amount for the more expensive $24 version. |
