Editorial Reviews

Val Kilmer delivers what was considered one of 1991's best performances as Jim Morrison in Oliver Stone's hallucinatory bio-pic of the seminal 1960s rock group The Doors. Stone cuts a jagged swath through Morrison's life, starting with a childhood memory where Morrison sees an elderly Indian dying by the roadside. It picks up with Morrison's arrival in California and his assimilation into the Venice Beach culture, followed by his film school days at UCLA; his introduction to his girlfriend Pamela Courson (Meg Ryan); his first encounters with Ray Manzarek (Kyle MacLachlan); and the origin of The Doors -- made up of Manzarek, Robby Kreiger (Frank Whaley), and John Densmore (Kevin Dillon). As the fame of The Doors grows, Morrison's obsession with death increases. The band grows weary of Morrison's missed recording sessions and no-shows at concerts. Morrison, meanwhile, sinks deeper into a drug-induced haze, having mystical sexual encounters with Patricia Kennealy (Kathleen Quinlan), an older rock journalist involved with sadomasochism and witchcraft.

June 09, 2009: This movie is great! it may not be all factual, though most ofit is, but its such a great movie. Val Kilmer is so good in it. He's excellent as Jim Morrison and i thought no other person could do as good of a job as Val. It gives you a good dark story. If your a Doors fan i say BUY THIS MOVIE!!

April 19, 2009: Val Kilmer did an excellen role in playing Jim Morrison!!! praise Val for that......but Oliver Stone did only show Jim in some parts of the movie that he was an all time drunk person....in some parts of the movie..........but it is a great movie overall!! andi love it.....so go out and buy it!!

I Also Recommend: Help!, A Hard Day's Night, Perception, Riders on the Storm: My Life with Jim Morrison and the Doors, Light My Fire.
