I thoroughly enjoyed the movie. I thought it was tastefully done, understanding that it's impossible to get 2 years worth of footage into a 2 hour movie without missing anything. I hope they come out with a DVD that shares a little more (I guess I can't get enough of those 5 guys) I would've liked to see why they were so hurt by Lou Pearlman, if it was just about the money or was there something else.The editing was pretty good and I loved the way the director used the music throughout the film. I have a new found respect for BSB, especially Nick, seeing where he came from and how much work he still needs to do. Finally Howie D came out and expressed his feelings about being in the group, growing up a Howie fan, I always was frustrated that he barely got to sing lead. Kevin and Brian's story was heart-wrenching and I felt AJ could have opened up a little more.I enjoyed the movie and can't wait for the DVD or blu ray.
... View MoreABOUT -- Backstreet Boys: Show 'Em What You're Made Of takes us to a journey showing us how BSB were made 20+ years ago. It shows us how BSB manager Lou Pearlman took advantage of them, how AJ and Nick battled with drugs, how Kevin left & returned and Brian's battle with his voice problem. Towards the end of the film, we see Backstreet Boys back onto the same energetic stage which was lost somewhere during last decade.WHAT'S THE BEST -- As BSB fans specially, we become to know these 5 men more properly and clearly. We become to know that these men suffered through hard stages behind their public image. And there's a lot of great inspiration to get when we become to know that AJ and Nick are healthy good boys (or men!) and that Brian inspires himself to get back on the track and also that Kevin is putting a lot of energy into the Family (as he calls it).WHAT WE WILL GET -- If a PIZZA is the best thing a film can give and a CHOCOLATE is the second best thing, then 40% watchers will get a PIZZA and 60% of those will get a CHOCOLATE. I've got half-PIZZA and a CHOCOLATE !!BACKSTREET'S BACK ALRIGHT
... View MoreThis 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
... View MoreMy first review in IMDb and I'm happy this is for my childhood heroes. I listened to BSB in my friend's home and addicted to those mind boggling songs from then on. And I'm so happy to see such a nice documentary has been made after such a long time, without deleting any essence of the pain and hardships they went through. They have done a wonderful job of coming back after 20 years and behind the scenes of the shows, what thought and actions and hard work they had to go through, following each stage in their life, everything is well shown.Thank you, thanks a lot ! This is a not to miss documentary with all it's purity preserved and all music fans should definitely see this.
