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.

'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]

The expert crafting of the narrative leading up to the final moments earns itself the right to maintain convention.

I must have seen this film at least four times. It is very interesting and captivating. The backstories to the band members are very well told and it is put together phenomenally.

A marvellous well assembled documentary about one of the greatest bands of all time. Which features about the Gallagher's childhood and so much more. It discusses the bands downfall due to their crazy antics and what went on behind the scenes. and it also discusses the rise of the band on how they came together and how they actually created some of the greatest songs of all time. I would definitely recommend, Supersonic (2016), if you're interested in wanting to know a lot more about the behind the scenes of the band, Oasis and how they formed together. Or even if you're a huge fan of Oasis. It's honestly worth the watch. 26 Sep 2021
