You´re not necesarily need to be a DOORS fan, you only need love rock´n´roll to enyoy this film. In the 90´s when I first read that Val Kilmer was the elected actor to play the role of Jim Morrison , I think skeptical that he even didn´t look like him, but after I saw him, I know that Val Kilmer really transform and captures the essence of Morrison. This film can only be seen on cable tv, mutilated or in midnight function because of the nudity. The script was based in the book "Riders On The Storm" written by former DOORS drummer John Densmore and tells the story of the rise and fall, life and death of Jim Morrison tortured soul. The dvd have a lot of extras including 43 minutes of additional scenes and a documentary "The Road of Excess" who have original concert footage. In the movie appears many cameos like former DOORS Robby Krieger(guitarrist), John Densmore (drummer), Paul Rothchild (producer of DOORS records), Billy Idol (punk pop singer who later recorded a DOORS cover "L.A. Woman"), Eric Burdon(from THE ANIMALS, 60´s group), Oliver Stone (director of the film), Patricia Kennealy-Morrison (journalist and supposed Morrison´s wife, in the film was interpreted by Kathleen Quinlan), etc. among others. So don´t wait no more and enjoy this film that is pure entertainment that scorched your eyes and blast your ears.Read full review
Val Kilmer gives an excellent performance in Oliver Stone's The Doors. I don't think there's enough of getting to know the characters in the movie. You get to know the mostly bad sides of Jim Morrison, which I guess Oliver Stone wants to focus on his excess which is alright, but I wish he would have let us get to know the other bandmates more. Oh well, maybe next time. This small shortcoming is made up for in the cool concert footage which is amazingly accurate and the excellent acting performances. Great soundtrack. This movie made me go out and buy all their albums.
There was a time when Val Kilmer was a truly amazing actor and had the world at his feet, and this was never more true than in his turn as drug-addled, "Doors" lead singer Jim Morrison. Stone's unusual approach to the too-soon-to-be-parted rock star suits the icon like a glove. This film stands out as one of both Stone's and Kilmer's best works, and features some of the most memorable and haunting celluloid to grace the screen. A masterpiece.
