Review: This is yet another documentary which proves that Kurt Cobains so-called suicide, wasn't as straight forward as it seemed. The difference with this documentary is that the investigator who was hired by Courtney Love is telling his story about the events that led to the finding of Kurt Cobains body in 1994. I must admit, after hearing all of the evidence from the hired PI, Tom Grant, it really does sound like he was murdered but it's been over 20 years since they found his body so I doubt that the case will see the light of day. The amount of heroin that was found in his body was shocking and the placing of the shotgun shell was extremely suspect. Also, Courtney Love's actions before his death was questionable and the fact that Kurt planned to divorce Courtney, gave her a motif but everyone believed her story, even though the PI had evidence about the suicide note being tampered with. The sad thing about the whole conspiracy is that 68 people have committed suicide to copy Kurt Cobains death so if all of the information isn't true, they would have died in vain. Anyway, this is a well put together documentary which will definitely have people questioning his death and I liked the fact the they used the real recordings of the conversations between the PI and Courtney Love. I just hope that they release all of the evidence, including the photographs and an examination of the death note, because they need to put all of these conspiracy theories to bed. Watchable!
Round-Up: I must admit, I was a bit of a Nirvana fan after I heard there smash hit, Smells Like Teen Spirit, so Kurt Cobains death did hit me a bit. I wasn't into the whole Nirvana, grunge movement but I did enjoy there music and no one has been able to touch there sound since then. For a three piece band, they certainly made there presence known and I must be honest, I didn't know what Kurt Cobain was saying half of the time but I couldn't help making up my own words whilst singing along to there tunes. Anyway, if your not into there music, this documentary is still worth a watch because the whole case definitely isn't as straight forward as it seems.
I recommend this movie to people who are into their documentary/crime/drama movies about the death of Kurt Cobain. 6/10
