This film really didn't have a heart. It was a series of music videos tied together with a meandering and unfocused plot. I was impressed with Naheed Nenshi's performance portraying Albert Grossman.

I thought a movie two and a half hours long would be too long but the time flew by. The story was very interesting and the performance was very well done. I would have definitely portrayed Johnny Cash with Joaquin Phoenix.

I wish the movie had been longer!! Was a teenager back when Bob Dylan was in the beginning of his career. Loved his music then, and still do. Hummed and sung to myself during those iconic songs, throughout the movie.

You don't have to love Dylan's voice to be amazed at how this movie shows what an unparalleled lyricist, songwriter, and musician he was. After watching this flick, I made a point of watching the documentary "Don't Look Back" about the real Dylan and Joan Baez on their infamous concert tour of England in 1965. The Real Dylan did a great "imitation" of Chamalet in this movie. For those of us in the 70's the movie gave us goose bumps throughout as we see the reaction to songs heard for the first time that are now part of American musical folklore.

True folk music traditions (particularly the blues) are not about "pretty" vocals. The salient fact about Dylan's vocal style is that his lyrics always stand out clearly, except perhaps when he pushes a fast tempo. Then it's just a matter of being able to keep up. Clarity prevails. "I dreamed I saw St. Augustine. alive with fiery breath"

Superb acting…..I felt as though I were witnessing the early Bob Dylan in real life. Facets of his early career were revealed, which many people might be unaware of. Music was, of course outstanding! Every second of the film had my undivided attention!
