Liam: As It Was

If you're a fan of Oasis, Liam, music, or comeback stories you should find this worth your time. I've rented it twice. I've always been a fan of Oasis, but this made me realize I honestly didn't know much. I've been binging and learning their history the last 3 months since watching this. And congrats to Liam, his solo career is a great success.

If you're a fan of Liam you're going to see this documentary regardless of what anyone says. I ignored any reviews before watching it and I honestly didn't expect it to be so candid and personal. I knew that Charlie Lightening had been filming Liam for a long time but I was unaware of the amount of footage there was. This film documents Liams journey from rock bottom at the end of Oasis to his journey with the under appreciated Beady Eye and straight back to the top where he rightly belongs with his solo career. The majority of this film is new footage and is worth watching for any fan.

This really made me fall in love with his and Oasis' music. Fantastic, biblical.

This sorry mess of a documentary throws everything but the kitchen sink at attempting to portray Liam Gallagher as a tortured artist who lost everything due to his evil brother Noel splitting up the band and ruining his life.

Admittedly it is not without a sense of self reflection and regret but this is a disingenuously one-sided propaganda flick for die hard Liam fans.

Sorry Liam, I love you but this movie wasn't needed and didn't work, a short interview would have been enough. I had to fast forward after a few minutes in to see if anything good was coming up but nothing, the 2 minute trailer is all you need and even that maybe too much. In contrast I loved Oasis Supersonic documentary, well made and highly recommended.
