COST 5 MILLION, ONLY MADE $900,000. NO HENDRIX MUSIC IN IT. - @Wednesday, November 14, 2018 6:37 PM

this movie had so much potential, Jimi deserved a better movie than this - @Wednesday, November 7, 2018 12:10 AM

What a wasted opportunity. Andre as Hendrix was a stroke of genius but if you’re gonna make a movie about him, first, you have to have his music in it. You just gotta. Second, portray him correctly. This movie did neither. - @Wednesday, August 8, 2018 9:20 PM

There's a reason Experience Hendrix L.L.C. wouldn't release the rights to Jimi's music for this film. What sources of information did Ridley use for this movie? The movies dotted with fictitious events, urban legend and historical inaccuracies. Poor Jimi, not around to stop all the posthumous trash that continues to be released without his approval. Music, books, docu-videos, "All is by my side" etc. Rest in peace Jimi. - @Sunday, July 15, 2018 8:56 AM

They couldn’t get the rights to his music… it’s idiotic if you ask me to even consider making a movie about a musician if you can’t even get their music. - @Sunday, April 15, 2018 8:38 PM

This movie was a complete let down, besides Andre 3000 as Hendrix who I thought was good, the story was awful. For most of the film it was just Hendrix arguing with his girlfriend and feeling like shit. There were so few scenes of him shredding on guitar I think the film maker forgot he could even play. Don't waste your time. - @Monday, January 9, 2017 9:22 PM

Should have been called "Jimi part I"...it ENDS just BEFORE he plays Monterey? That's like an Elvis movie ending right after he performs a few times in Memphis. Jimi was famous before that point (but mostly only in London), but his records were not selling yet, and I'm no Jimi historian, but I think that he only had a few singles released prior to Monterey. It was like watching a Soap Opera called "As the Jimi turns", it was too focused on his romantic affairs and trivial conversations. Now if this included a "disk 2" I'd give it a 10. It was worth seeing as a Jimi fan, but I feel it could have been so much better if only it spanned a longer time frame from say, like when he arrived in England to the time that he accidentally overdosed. - @Saturday, November 19, 2016 4:21 AM

Yeah poor choice of actor Hendrix was brown skinned not black Keith Richards white strat. He was playing had block bridge saddles I no for a fact they were bend steel vintage saddles . The girlfriend beating was fiction .and overall it was a bad movie . There is another Hendrix movie which I think was more better . Made in 2000 called Hendrix . - @Sunday, September 18, 2016 9:08 AM

What a great movie! André Benjamin is perfect as Jimi Hendrix. In most scenes, he looks exactly like Hendrix. In all scenes, he speaks like Hendrix! The only flaw in this movie is that the "Jimi Hendrix Estate" wouldn't allow this movie to play his original songs!?!? That's why this movie gets panned by everyone! I believe that Jimi Hendrix, HIMSELF, would have been pissed-off about that! If the movie producers were allowed to create scenes with Jimi Hendrix's 'Original Songs,' this movie could-and-would have been as big as "The Doors"(1991) by Oliver Stone. The same with the Brian Jones movie "Stoned"(2005)...no original music was allowed!?!? WTF! That KILLS the movie in many ways! I like this movie...and, André Benjamin is AWESOME as Jimi Hendrix! :) - @Friday, August 26, 2016 8:21 PM

Probably one of the worst directed movies ever , I had to turn it off within 20 minutes of watching it . I'm a fan of his music also . But I couldn't force myself to watch this movie . I'm sure other people would of enjoyed this movie tho . Just wasn't for me - @Sunday, January 17, 2016 7:47 AM

i just honestly think the movie would have been so much better if his MUSIC WAS ACTUALLY IN IT the CLASSIC songs i didnt hear that upset me - @Saturday, December 19, 2015 4:38 AM

I still wish that they hadn't portrayed him as beating Kathy Etchingham, although the real Kathy Etchingham said it's BS and that the years she had with him were some of the best she had. Musically and creatively, the film does do him justice, but personally I feel that this does not and whoever wrote this script was just looking for $$$ - @Friday, November 13, 2015 5:13 PM

Andre was really good. But am I really the only one really stupidly bothered by the fact the interviewer in that black & white segment, she says something about QUEEN? Queen was formed in 1970. how could you fuck that up. '' 1:19 '' - @Wednesday, October 14, 2015 8:35 PM

I just gave it 1 star on Netflix. Andre 3000 done a really good job as Jimi ( the other actors were good too) but I'm so disappointed the writers portrayed him in that way. What are they trying to do to his legacy? I've seen many documentaries interviews and read loads of articles over the years but never heard of him beating women or being violent in anyway shape or form. I was relieved to find a web page straight away that tells of everyone who knew Jimi, personally, testifying to the domestic abuse portrayal as false. Another major disappointment was the lack of Hendrix in the sound track but now I understand and fully support the Hendrix family's disassociation to this movie. This film sacrificed some really exciting, uplifting and historical moments in music history for some depressing, fictional (bullshit would be more appropriate) drama that totally shat on and disrespected the memory of, by all accounts, a peace loving, fun loving, good person. Why? Not to boost ratings. If anything it's off-putting. I do not recommend this film to Hendrix fans. - @Wednesday, July 1, 2015 12:17 AM

IF YOU'RE NOT A FAN OF FILM, DONT WATCH. IF YOU CAME TO SEE HIM SING "HEY JOE" & LIGHT HIS GUITAR ON FIRE, GO SEARCH FOR THE REAL THING... BUT IF YOU ARE A FAN OF FILM & YOURE INTERESTED IN KNOWING THE MAN OFF THE STAGE. GIVE IT A PATIENT WATCH. IT'S NOT A BIG BUDGET BOX OFFICE BLOCKBUSTER, SO PUT YOURE ACID AWAY FOR THIS ONE. BY THE WAY, ANDRE 3000 IS BRILLIANT IN THIS. & KEEP IN MIND IT'S ABOUT HENDRIX, PRE FAME. IT'S BETTER YOU GO IN KNOWING THAT, YOU'LL APPRECIATE IT BETTER. - @Wednesday, June 3, 2015 8:51 PM

I fucking love André 3000 as Jimi Hendrix, I also like the edition, but the plot was kinda pointless & was expecting a more psichodelic photography. They could done so much thing with this, Jimi is a legend & as much as I love the cast & the edition, he deserves something so much better - @Sunday, May 24, 2015 5:24 PM

seems to have the voice spot on .Another biopic to get some cash off sentimentality and have yet again another person try and tell us what the sixties were like, many of us are tired ,its done .If you wanna know about Jimi watch the footage that exist read some stuff and really listen to the music ,its all there and He can speak - @Thursday, May 21, 2015 9:47 AM

I know a few things about 50s and 60s music, but not much about Jimi Hendrix. I was trying to use this biopic to learn a bit about him. Now that I've seen it I must say I'm so glad it's over. Boring and dull dialogues. And if you're not particularly into his music, you're pretty nerv-wrecked by the end of the film. And: OMG, did Jimi Hendrix really talk that much incoherent bullshit like his character does in the movie? I so hope that's just down to the bad script writer... - @Sunday, May 17, 2015 9:56 AM

Kathy Etchingham offers to produce medical records to prove violent scenes in biopic never took place Jimi Hendrix’s former girlfriend Kathy Etchingham has offered to produce her medical records and prove the “shocking” inaccuracies in biopic Jimi: All Is By My Side. She spoke up before the 2014 movie was released, saying that writer and director John Ridley hadn’t consulted her, and that scenes that showed Hendrix being violent to her were works of fantasy. Hendrix biographer Charles R Cross last year condemned the production, saying: “I interviewed 325 people, from family members to friends. I never heard a story that’s even close to that.” Now Etchingham tells Rich Davenport: “The whole story is a fabrication. Even the things that did happen have not been produced accurately. “John Ridley didn’t consult me, so I don’t know where he got it from. Apparently Jimi beat my head in with a telephone receiver and then beat me up in the street. They’ve got me taking an overdose of tablets and being in hospital. None of these things happened. “I was completely shocked. If somebody beat you up like that, the police would be involved. If you took an overdose a psychiatrist would be involved. With the National Health Service your medical records stay with you for life. I’d be quite happy to produce them – there’d be nothing in there.” She says she contacted Ridley as soon as she heard the movie, starring Outkast rapper Andre Benjamin, was to be made. “I wrote a nice email saying, ‘If you need any help don’t hesitate to ask.’ He didn’t even have the common courtesy to say thanks but no thanks. He didn’t respond. He went out of his way not to talk to me. “But he still maintains he spoke to Jimi’s friends. I know them all – and none of them have heard of John Ridley.” Etchingham, who met Hendrix the day he arrived in London, says the guitar icon was a very different man to the one portrayed in All Is By My Side. “He wasn’t drugged up or drunk at all,” she recalls. “He was so determined to make something of himself and show what he could do. It was all very busy. He spent a lot of time writing his songs and practising.” And her message for fans is: “Keep your money in your pocket – you’re not going to learn anything about Jimi Hendrix from this film.” - @Monday, May 11, 2015 8:53 PM

You can be an excellent pilot, but if the plane is crap it's going to crash. I am a fan of Mr. HENDRIX, and I felt Andrew played him well, but a movie should entertain, this movie fell to do that. It made me feel like I was watching a bunch of editing floor cuts, if you want to hear any Hendrix music don't watch this but if you want to see alot of self loathing, unfinished plots, and references to all the great people around him this movie is for you. It was so bad I couldn't wait for the over dose scene, again I was let down. Fucking terrible. - @Tuesday, March 10, 2015 6:55 AM

Shelece Williams
Reading some of these comment and thought i should say, the guy playing Jimi Hendrix, is Andre "3000" Benjamin, from the group Outkast. I didnt know so many people didnt know that. But the movie was very well put, it pin pointed Jimi's life and love life up to his success. - @Saturday, March 7, 2015 7:26 AM

I was quite impressed with the portrayal of Jimi Hendrix. The guy playing Jimi nails it! Fantastic Film! - @Friday, March 6, 2015 9:39 PM

I was a little disappointed. I found that the actors, particularly Andrè Benjaming, did a great job, but I felt that this movie could have done so much more interesting with the whole concept. I mean, this is Jimi- fucking-Hendrix, one of the most revered musicians of the 20th century! Granted, I obviously do not know Jimi Hendrix the person, but when I listen to his music or watch some video footage I just can't identify THAT Jimi with the Jimi portrayed in the movie: A bunch of average blues licks, some random mystical mumbo-jumbo about love, life and creativity that makes him look like a empty new age poser... and a somewhat misogynistic attitude? I don't know. Again, I don't know Jimi Hendrix and I don't know or care what was true or fictional in the movie, I just think that the flick fails to portray the intensity of Jimi Hendrix, that same feel that melts my brain out when I listen to his music or read about his life - @Friday, February 6, 2015 1:06 PM
