Technically any good? I think it's about as good as any biopic I've seen. Alas, there seems to be a rather cliched structure that most famous musicians seem to go through--born into poverty, inexplicably learn to play music, get on drugs, cheat on their wives (sometimes they go back to their wives, sometimes not), they get off the drugs, then die shortly before movies are made of them. It's then up to the filmmakers to make these cliches entertaining. In this case, the acting will knock you on your butt.
How did it leave me feeling? Entertained, but like I said, I'm no fan of musician biopics so I can take this film or leave it. If you enjoy this type of film, you'll probably enjoy it just fine.
Final Rating? SIYL
