This is a documentary movie about the innocent 90's, the boy band wave, and about one of the big wizards in managing bands of music, lou pearlman. he was also a scamer of proportions and that is the main subject of this documentary
boy bands, well in fact at the time i hated most of the kind, and the hype of it. it was so bad at times that my nerves wrenched, and whenever my wife was behind the driving wheel its was bsb or nsync or new kids on the block. i threatened to walk out of the car in frustration while still driving, so thankfully my wife turned it of, and after that weve always driven car in silence....what a schmuck you might think, but when things enerves you that much its pretty devastating, and i cant understate the vast differece in taste of music that me and my better half has. though today we have our best moments together at big stadium concerts, having even enjoyed robbie williams on the stage, in addition to iron maiden,sting, imagine dragon, a-ha, erasure, phil collins among others. so growing up at discos in the 80's, the 90's pop music were a major anticlimax for me.
but the film, its a witch hunt an masse', and there are just one or two who has something nice to say about the perputrator . i do understand why ron is and was a hated man, but its not told well enough why he became such an con artist. though the people that take part in this intermesso of this adhd-candidate pranker, tells a good story, and have experienced being on top of nthe world and on the charts, there are just small parts of gratitude in their words.
the filming, editing and use of archive and kinda found footage material, really builds a good story, but there are something still missing. to all the scamed investors sitting left with no money, has to realize that life is a gamble. i hope that there has been made some kinda compensation given to you all, and that there are some geeks still searching for the fortune hidden out there. con men are out there everywhere, and i may be one of them myself, but im too scared to be conned so you might say im yours trully.
the grumpy old man might have revealed some of his sour sides of himself, but this documentary is after all good and fairly recommended.
