 Great work! Solid! April 6, 1999
"Instrument" is not a Fugazi biography or "rockumentary," that would be too self-serving-it's about the music of Fugazi. This is just as well since the music is what Fugazi is all about. Although for someone new to Fugazi, "Instrument" would serve as an excellent introduction to the Fugazi low-down. Cohen's usage of mixed-film formats, sound edits, variable synchronization between the two, not to mention the selected the subject matter, comprise a down to earth film which evokes a great understanding of Fugazi's reality, and, more importantly, provides a moving experience. To underscore the aforementioned, in accordance with Fugazi's philosophy of moving onward and not duplicating previous work, none of the music, or versions of, featured in "Instrument" is previously released. A lot of cool demos and live performances provide for a damn good soundtrack. "Instrument" is a must view for any Fugazi fan, or anyone who appreciates great music and respects the makers of it.
Best and most intense emotional documentary film ever see. April 4, 1999
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This documentary is great in that it combines both 8mm, 16mm, and video medias. It also uses sync, and non sync sound. The musical collages, and demos where amazing. I liked this film because it showed both behind the scenes footage (interviews, band @ grandparents house)with stage performances. It is amazing how this film brought so much intense emotion to fugazi's music with slow motion, silences, and the use of text through out the film. I think that anyone who enjoys fugazi will love this film.
