They weren't the Sex Beatles, as London's music press dubbed them. They were rock's Marsalis brothers, advancing and embodying their own highly selective idea of a canon. Go to Full Review

4/5
The determination and confidence of brothers Liam and Noel can inspire young musicians and artists, while the less savory stories can serve as a warning about the more damaging parts of the rock and roll lifestyle. Go to Full Review

'Oasis: Supersonic' is not the most honest movie about the group, but definitely, perhaps, the best documentary about a rock band to this date. [Full Review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

Theodore P Jun 24, 2018 Such a good doctumentry ! 10/10
Anakin R Mar 1, 2018 This is an enjoyable documentary and one that gives a decent insight into the Gallaghers, their family life and in particular the formation of Oasis. Didn't really hit me with nostalgia in the same way some of these films do and a lot of it you already know but this is still a pretty interesting story and in particular amazing to remember how quick the band's ascent to stardom was.

Abraham S Jan 3, 2018 Is it my imagination Or have I finally found something worth living for? I was looking for some action But all I found was cigarettes and alcohol  See more
Ron P Dec 28, 2017 Really enjoyed it. A lot better than I assumed. It really focussed on the family struggles, and personal lives of the band. It was quite deep. See more
Anakin S Dec 27, 2017 Fans will love it and given everyone was a fan, that makes for a lot of people. The early days are the most interesting parts and it's a shame we don't hear more of the perspectives of the supporting cast but really Noel and Liam were the stars so why not hear their views. A rollicking and enjoyable reliving of an exciting time on British music history. The last great British band. See more
Draco R Dec 24, 2017 Oasis are the best band ever
