Avis à la une
The documentary doesn't even try to find out how the hate for the band started. They just simply saying that it was because of the rise of social media during the band's peak time. And even that, is only for 10 minutes or so. The only thing that stood up in those moments was when it was highlighted that band's members kids were bullied at school because of the band's universal hate and that people were shouting insults at Chad Kroeger on the street. That is the only minor moment that makes you to reflect upon the consequences of hating a celebrity just for the sake of hating someone.
But how it all started? From whom? The film makers were to lazy to analyse that, to search, maybe to interview some of the people who have started the hate (like Dave Grohl). Was it a jealousy involved, was it the band members behaviour, was it just a stupid spark that blossomed into a huge fire? No answers to these questions. No, just lazy writing and lazy making. Let's just produce something uninspired and cheap, at least to justify the continuum rise in subscriptions fees. And no, I do not have a Netflix account, I have just watched the stupid movie at my sister's house, when I had nothing to do. I barely could make it to the end, because it's just boring, after the first half.
Keep going like this, Netflix, you will be ruined soon by another streamer. Especially when you are increasing prices every year and you aren't giving anything in exchange.

I think people just enjoyed making a trend out of hating on Nickelback. I've always been a fan. They put on a kickass concert too. This documentary was super informative and uplifting. Highly recommend.
It walks through the formation of the band from the very beginning. It was news to me that they came out with their first album back in the 90s. It then goes through the background of each of the band members. They show different scenes from some of the concerts they've performed.
If you're a proud (or closeted) fan of Nickelback, you should watch this documentary. I have more of an appreciation for them now after watching this documentary.

I don't love or hate Nickelback. I liked This is How You Remind me when it came out all those years ago, but I stopped listening to them shortly after.
However, I think I like them less after watching this documentary.
Here are some of the reasons why:
The lyrics to some of their songs deserve the derision they earned the band. Chad claims they are "risque" but they're just crude and corny. There was no attempt to justify or explain these lyrics.
The attitude of Chad Kroeger ("I'm great at getting out of trouble")' is.deserving of scorn. This a 50 year old man acting in a cringeworthy manner.
The documentary didn't even mention the lawsuits related to the firing of the drummer. Apparently it was over songwriting royalties, which would make Chad Kroeger crude, cringeworthy, and greedy.
There was no self reflection as to why people disliked them. It was just dismissed as nasty online trolls, which is only part of the truth.
However, there were some parts that made me feel sympathetic towards the rest of the band. Bullying kids because their father is in Nickelback is not acceptable. It's sad that that happened.
But apart from that, I came away very unimpressed and unsympathetic. The music is crude, the lead singer is cringe, and they lack self awareness as to why they are disliked.

I honestly have just never understood the hate. They are a great band. Great music. If it isn't your particular type of music.. DON'T LISTEN TO THEM! I mean really.. As is the case with anything. Movies, TV, Music, etc. It has always been crazy to me how some people just turned to such hate. WHY???? I was glad to see the documentary because I have just never understood why anyone would want to make someone feel bad for no other reason than they just don't like their music or a band member, whatever. You do have the option NOT TO BUY OR LISTEN TO THEM! Ok, so they aren't for you. Why keep saying hateful, hurtful things??
Because it appears people have forgotten, Nickelback became hated because they refused to perform at a charity concert at the last minute unless they got paid more. A charity concert.....now they're desperate to come up with other excuses for why people started to hate them.
They were very popular when they first came out but then their personalities started to show. That's okay though, it's 2024 and everyone is a victim in the world of avoiding responsibility for your actions.
Aside from that they're what Green Day became except Nickelback became pop much quicker once in the limelight. Don't blame others for your bad choices and greedy nature.
