Coachella

RS: 2.5of 4 Stars

2006

Considering this documentary on America's greatest thriving alt-rock festival features fantastically charismatic acts, Coachella is surprisingly dull. Inarticulate fan interviews bog down the pacing, while choppy editing and frantic camera work give the performances an MTV slickness that squashes the festival's indie vibe. Radiohead, The Flaming Lips, Iggy, Bjork and Morrissey have all looked better elsewhere.
