DVD Reviews of Mayor of the Sunset Strip

DVD Review: Lost soul in Hollywood, so what else is new?
Summary: 4 Stars

It was interesting that this movie depicted a vicious argument between its own producer and the subject of the film (Rodney Bingenheimerheimenschmitt). Are these guys mired in a pit of self-referentialism and petty comeuppance as they both try to claw their way out of the quicksand of nothingness and not-getting-noticed-ness? Pathetic. Actually, if the movie is true to its subject, I felt sorry for Rodney, but not because he failed to become famous or extraordinarily rich by his grab for fame (his music club did make a dollar here and there on the more talented). I was saddened to see that he was so self-deluded in the more personal aspects of his life, such as his unrequited love for a lowly woman who was a pathetic nobody and had another boyfriend, his detachment from his estranged family, and his longing for acceptance by a fame-obsessed, autograph-seeking mother. A great analysis of a lost soul, and an important message for today's youth.

DVD Review: He's so boring
Summary: 2 Stars

me and my best friend ashley watched this over a year ago and we were bored to tears. Its not that the film is made bad its just that the subject Mr. B is soooooooo boring. I could not imagine what all these rock stars loved about him and why they wanted to hang with him other than getting their songs on the radio.

DVD Review: Rodney, Rodney..
Summary: 5 Stars

Wonderful feel to this accurate Bio-Documentary. Rare accurate look into LA music scene.
Most Uber-Hipsters knew Rodney who still lives in a world of a 16 year old fan.
Warholian Rodney can still get away with wearing skin tight pants at (cough) years old where others can't.
He's the real deal. To anyone who makes fun of him I say this: Rodney had all the girls and you didn't. heh
Very gracious of Bowie to talk about RB being his intro to LA and responsible for all early airplay of his demo tapes.

DVD Review: Would one would do to be in this man's place!!!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

How many rock personalities can say they hung out with all four beatles,was the double for Davey Jones,was present at David Bowie's first L.A. gig,got Elvis to come to his club,gave Robert Plant competition with women,and introduced such acts as Blondie,The Sex pistols and even Coldplay to fm radio? The answer,only one....Rodney Bingenheimer! This documentary traces the life of the famous Los Angeles DJ from his childhood years to the early days in the music scene to the glam rock days when he once owned one of L.A.'s most hottest club in the 1970's to his present days as one of KROQ (Los Angeles) radio's most loved Discjockeys. With footage,music,and interviews of artists from the 1960's to the present,this DVD is recommended to all rock n roll lovers and historians. Rock on!!!!!!

DVD Review: Music fans should check this out!
Summary: 4 Stars

Good film on one of the icons that broke a number of bands of yesterday and today. The story of a good person that wanted nothing in return for the love of music!

If you are a music fan you want to watch this! The extras are worth the purchase alone with great interviews that are candid and up front!
