Customer Reviews of Kurt & Courtney

Not as great as advertised
Exposes on legend Kurt Cobain are invariably depressing, and this one is certainly no exception. If you expect to get to the "root" of how Cobain died through this video, forget it. Plain and simple: the guy killed himself with a gun; no one murdered him. "Kurt & Courtney" shows Courtney Love for what she is, fake and wretched, but she never hired anybody to kill her husband. Her daily existence was enough to drive Cobain away.

The director's filming style and questioning is shoddy, probably even to the most casual observer. He asks dull questions, and proceeds not to follow them up with anything worthwhile, as viewers are left to look at the stoned, boring faces of his unworthy interviewees who had little to do with the actual lives of the Cobains. Oh yeah, we are treated to insights from Courtney Love's bizarre father. When you see him, you'll understand where Courtney...um, never mind...this documentary is almost a complete waste of time.

Sad thing is, put in the hands of a capable, less self-involved director, a documentary on Kurt and Courtney might have been truly interesting. Maybe someday we'll get that. As it stands, though, this movie contains nothing special, save for Kurt's genuine and loving aunt who is interviewed, and a few interesting personal tidbits along the way.

pretty Good
Well this DVD story interviews Kurt Friends and Courtney Love. The main point of this DVD is to show that Courtney Love had a motavation to murder Kurt Cobain. But thats just crap but this DVD is only for a person who belives Kurt was murderd.

flawed
A good documentry,but seriously flawed on the main clue that Courtney did do it...When he says it is proven that with his dose of heroin,he could've lived long enough to shoot himself because it has happened before.The person in question that they compared those results to was on methadone,which is similar to heroin,but is NOT heroin.Heroin is directly shot into the bloodstream,where as methadone takes a little bit longer.The guy who did this documentry didn't have any idea where it was going to go.First he wanted to make Courtney look bad,then he wanted to say she didn't kill him at all.He also failed to mention the piece of paper found in Courtney's bag a week after Kurt died.It had samples of kurt's handwriting and her's...trying to forge it.I basically summed it up in one paragraph:COURTNEY DID IT.And don't watch this documentry unless you want distorted truth and lies.
