 A Legend January 24, 2009

Johnny is a legend and he won't let ya forget it even in death. This DVD has the extra added bonus of *not* having famous hanger-on Legs McNeil in it. And as for the last heartbreaking 15 minutes, heck, I cried. Gabba.
 Good piece for the Ramones collection. February 25, 2009

I am not a professional writer or critic but Ill just state the facts of my opinions on this video . First ,If you are well informed about the Ramones already there really isn't any information you would not know anyways . If you have seen the other documentaries , interviews and perhaps read the books it is just more of the same info .If you are unfamiliar with the Ramones than This video does relay the basic story of the Ramones. The performances were descent except the audio in some performances could have been much better.Soundchecks for the audio recording were probably rushed the night of the concert due to the fast pace stage changes. The highlight of the DVD is seeing Marky and CJ on stage together performing some Ramones classics for the first time in more than 8 years .I think the ceramony for the Johnny Ramone statue was edited too much for the video or wasnt thurough but maybe for the better if there was a lot of down time that day .I rate this one a 3 out of 5 . At least there was footage recorded of these 2 events and if you are a Ramones collector than buy it .
See ya John!!! November 17, 2008

WOW!!! This is a very fitting way to say "see ya for now, John". We should never say goodbye to our friends, heroes or loved ones and this film proves that!! It is an amazing look back at not just Johnny Ramone but the music itself and the influence it has had worldwide for the last 30 years. Even though the last 10-15 minutes are absolutely heartbreaking, it is well worth multiple viewings for fans of the band as well as fans of music itself. Life is short and was even shorter for Johnny, Joey, and Dee Dee. But I know they just wanted to get to heaven before the rest of us so they would have time to rehearse. See ya soon fellas! HEY HO, LET'S GO!!!!!
Ramones 5, Everybody else 3 and 1/2 February 9, 2009

There is some great music here.The first two bands play non Ramones stuff though, pretty poorly and a bit inappropriately.
The interviews too often intrude on the music.
Some of the interviews seem to repeat stuff from 'The Turn of the Century'.
It shows what a great cover band the HC Peppers are. Dee Dee would be proud of their tattoos, and some credit is given to Dee Dee's song writing genius. We see Daniel Rey play, what tales of Dee Dee could he tell?
Johnny's guitar technique could have been much better explored and there really is no historical stuff about him, belying the title.
His demise is dealt with sensitively enough and we get to see and hear a bit from his wife Linda, though there are no interviews with Johnny himself in his twilight years.
Joan Jet's, Judy is a Punk , is relegated to the credits, whilst it's better than the Rollin's hollered one.
The guy from Rancid plays power chords.
Overall, better than some rockumentaries (recently tried to watch the appalling Sympathy for the Devil, and I'm a Stones fan!).
Not sure there is enough background stuff for the Ramones naive.
Like a Ramones concert, it makes you wish you'd been there though, so it's an effective production with a great ironic title; courtesy of Joey?
Three and a half maybe.
