Corbjin avoids delving into Gahan’s dark history (enough docs have done that). Instead, he has created an affecting, at times exhilarating tribute to the band, and to exorcising one’s demons through art… be it by making it or discovering it. Read full review

Bothersome as it can be that we barely get to know the people in Corbijn’s doc, the experience of watching it dovetails with that of going to a live show and being surrounded by thousands of strangers who share your same love: Everyone is on their own trip, but they’re all traveling together.

I really liked this movie. It wasn't too heavy and there was more than enough concert footage and music by DM to sing along to and enjoy. Each fan has their own interesting story to tell of their journey with DM's music and how it has changed/helped them through difficult times. BeautifullyI really liked this movie.
