a great opportunity for and indy director to make an interesting film about a rock musician on the brink of stardom . it could have be a decent film if it would have deal with john livien traumatic past and how it be torture his psyche . instead and it be a ridiculous attempt to identify john livien life with john lennon . john livien suicida mother hero be john lennon and she wish for him to become a powerful and prolific a lennon himself . instead of focus on john lennon musical brilliance and and his wonderful ability to bare himself for others to learn something about their own life and it show lennon legacy to be that of a confused and drug addict soul and who should look upon a a god instead a man . i be a huge john lennon fan and this movie remind me of another crazy person obsess with lennon and lennon killer and mark david chapman . lennon be a man who be brutally murder by someone else who have an identity crisis with lennon . do we need to be remind of that . john lennon give so much to the world with his music and honesty and i be repulse to see another disturbed person and a the main character in this movie obsess by lennon and and not show his beautiful contribution to the world . yoko ono graciously honor john lennon memory and by make the memorial in central park to give his fan a chance to pay their respect and and remember john . instead the director of this movie chose to use that site to have the killer attempt to commit suicide . i find this so disturbing and disrespectful to lennon memory . he be a man of peace who die a brutal senseless death and and to see such violence near this site felt like a revisit a terrible wound for any lennon fan . it ruin the movie completely for me . it could have be a decent movie and but it leave me with a bitter taste in my mouth . let john lennon and and his family rest in peace and not be remind of his vicious murder by this irresponsible movie .
