I totally agree with CoolChris' review that this DVD is a piece of trash. I too was fooled into thinking it was some sort of companion DVD that came out at the same time as In Your Honor. It wasn't until I received it that I found out it was unauthorized (although whoever made it couldn't even spell "unauthorized" correctly on the cover!!) I couldn't even make it through the whole thing because it mainly focused on 1 wanna be blow hard who acted like he knew Dave and could speak for him when he was probably just a Dave stalker when he lived in DC. I hate to think my cash went to these rip off artists making money off the Foo Fighters good name.

This DVD is nothing but a disappointment. It is an unauthorized recitation of the facts any Foo fan can easily find elsewhere in numerous magazines, websites, and interviews. You won't even hear any Foo music here. Sloppy and tacky. I regret giving the producers of this sham any of my money.

It has nothing worth mentioning... it seems the documentary just grabbed some general info from the band's website and came up with some Intro to Foo's for a general audience that doesn't know much about the rock genre. At least this documentary is more fun than the effortless that my former Data Structures instructor attempted to explain things.

I've been a diehard Foo fan for years, purchasing everything I can get my hands on that is associated with them. Granted this DVD biography is not officially licensed, it is not nearly worth the money. You learn the bare facts about the band, but you could just get online and learn just as much. If you're in the market for a Foo DVD, please use your money on the fantastic live DVD Everywhere But Home.

Trust me on this, just order Everywhere But Home. It has a live foo fighters concert and some other good stuff. Guardian Angels has NO foo fighters music and NO new info that is worth watching. I don't think that this piece of trash has anything to do with the foos at all. I'm bummed because I thought this was a sort of companion DVD to the new album but it is just a cheap ripoff that looks like it was made by someone trying to to fill enough time to be able to sell it as a full disk.

Yea, i was very excited to get this and to see interviews with DAVE GROHL, NOT. im pissed.

Although this film is unauthorized it still gave me details I didn't know about the band. It includes interviews with some biographers who tell the Foos story and details about how the band started. It is missing music from the Foos and footage - but as a documentary it's OK.
