As another reviewer has already pointed out: you don't have to be a fan to enjoy this movie. It's a really good documentary on how 5 boys came to fame and how they handled it. And yes there were many highs, but also quite a few lows. And it's refreshing to see them being honest about certain things (drug problems, manager problems, even "current" issues, at the time of shooting this, when they had a fight - two band members going at each other).Having said, the songs are striking a chord, although of course they are all on the romantic side, so if you get pain rather than pleasure from that, certain aspects of the documentary will get you sick. Many boy-bands have come and gone and every one of them certainly has a story to tell (it's a nice touch, that we visit the former homes of the band members by the way), but this really strikes a chord - pun intended

Despite what some of the reviews say this waste of money movie is only something that only mindless loyal BSB fans will like. And bsb just like any other boy vocal group were only successful because their looks appeal to young girls of the late 90s and early 2000s. So to the reviewer that claimed the the members of bsb became successful base on the so called talent alone. Just isn't a fact. Bsb would have never made it if they were all ugly or geeky or dorky or nerdy looking guys. And is the reason Lou Pearlmen when holding auditions for the vocal group he made which make bsb just as manufacture as 1D. Pick each and every member of bsb base on their looks knowing from groups like NKOTB they would have been big. But it amazing how in 20 years they never got caught lip syncing I guess their just to good at lip syncing to get caught. And fake acapellas by using just the vocal track to fool their fans into thinking they can actually sing. Which they can't without the help of pitch correction.

Regardless being a long time fan, I found this documentary very unique and special from other documentaries. They didn't focus on concerts but basically their private lives and secrets. Each member had a voice to speak out. It is a documentary that would make you love this boy band as they are and how successful they were. I felt sorry for Brian and what he was going through. It was interesting how they viewed each and everyone of them in a special way. The boys grew to be men and there had to be a change to be done! It would have been a 10 out of 10 documentary if they hadn't use so many bad words since there are young fans watching. Thumbs up!

This is truly a great insight to one of the biggest bands of my childhood - The Backstreet Boys. Soon you realize this is a heartbreaking story of a band that came out of only the members' talents and will to go on and keep singing great songs. It shows all the good and bad A.J., Brian, Howie, Nick and Kevin went through the passed 20 years. Finally we get to see the beginning of the group and the evolution of the band combined with group visiting their homes and sharing their secrets. Every true BSB fan should watch it and even people who aren't fans should definitely see it. There are also some Easter eggs of unfortunately unreleased songs, so all in all it is a must see. It is real, authentic, emotional and a bit nostalgic film to watch, especially if you are a kid from 90ties who has grown up in Europe, listening to the best vocal harmony group.KTBSPA
