Anyone going to check this one out? The trailers seem to describe it as a documentary with plenty of insight on the life of the man and his music. Any other thoughts? Release date 4/20....<wink>

I cannot believe that I can get in "On-Demand" in my house! That is awesome. BUT, I just looked at the running time. It says that the movie is only 104 minutes. The movie in the theatre is 144 minutes.

Maybe a typo?

Can my 6 and 8 year old kids watch it?

Well, I watched with my wife and 6 year old. Both of them fell asleep. Apart from limited drug references, which are likely to go over most kids heads, I say it is safe for kids to see. But they'll probably tune out due to boredom.

I thought it was very, very well done. Gave decent insight into his music and who he was. Doesn't seem like they sugar coated it, which was nice.

Savannah Day Dreamin recommended it on her show last Saturday. She had all kinds of Marley stuff on her show.

I saw it last night and really liked it. Told the story as true as you can about someone who is such a legend.
