As thrilling and colorful as a movie can get...

Warning: Spoilers
To make this clear, do not come to the movie with any expectations. Some expect Ride Rise Roar to be an inside look at the making of the colorful concerts of David Byrnes tour and the choreography. Some are gonna be flocking to the theaters to watch a concert movie. To make this clear, this movie is not a concert movie or an "inside look" movie. what it is, however, is a thrilling looking at the tour of David Byrne and the creativity put into the dances in his new tour that made them exhilarating. His concerts, with the dancing, became more than just a concert with a guy singing. It became a show, an entertaining show at that. Saw this at the Seattle International Film Festival with the directors and producers of this film, and needless to say I was blown away by the music and raw energy of the film. Just beware...there will be no mention of the Talking Heads throughout the film. Leave your mind at the box office, and enjoy!
