I watched it yesterday and really enjoyed it, hard R rating. For those who don't know its based of the autobiography of Motley Crue, Also I don't know how accurate it is, but all 4 members are executive producers on the show.
It was ok, brought back some old memories. I had completely forgotten that Vince Neil was replaced by John Corabi from 92 - 97. Also Vince was driving a 72 Pantera not a Corvette in the crash that killed Razzle. Watching Iwan Rheon(Ramsay Bolton) play Mick Mars was distracting for me. Especially since we are right in the middle of GOT Season 6 The guy that played Ozzie was awful.

The only surprise for me is to find that the movie dissed the 89-90 tour. Apparently MC just phone it in.
So many of us fought to get to those shows and did our part as fans only to find out that during that time . . . They were bored.
It kind of pissed me off a little.

Ugh, I found it depressing. I'm glad they got their stuff together though.
I'm sure the lore was exaggerated but it pretty much shows what was in the Hit Parader and other music mags at the time.
I specifically remember Nikki Sixx saying in an interview that they were going to make a porno but they thought better of it since there were a lot of kids looking up to them. I appreciated that but here we are. They really weren't much to look up to.
Their first two albums were really great. Theater of Pain was pretty wimpy. My first concert was Y&T opening for them on that tour. I didn't listen to anything after ToP.
I'm still a fan.
Ozzy was a trainwreck. I'm surprised he survived any of that. I'm surprised any of them survived. The human body is amazingly able to take lots of abuse.
