Interesting insights into the band, especially into HP Baxxter's mindset
3 October 2023
The documentary offers some history about HP Baxxter's early life and how the band came to be. Former band members talk about their experiences and in general what they say seems genuine.

I liked the cinematography as quieter scenes are directly followed by scenes with loud techno music as interesting contrasting elements.

It feels like the band members, especially HP Baxxter, acted mostly natural and were not acting too much for the camera. The audience can witness arguments within the band, emotional reactions and funny unplanned moments.

Cinematography was not in the traditional netflix style with title cards for time and places and dramatic music. Instead, we are presented mostly with buildings or street signs to find out where the scene is taking place and the musical background is of course Scooter sounds.

Some scenes could have been shortened a little bit

The band's struggle with COVID-19 restrictions and the influence the pandemic had on their music offers something special not seen in other documentaries on music bands.

Some scenes could have been shortened a little bit, the total runtime of 1h 53 min is a bit too long. On the other hand, I would have been interested in seeing more of HP Baxxter's private life.

Definitely worth a watch for Scooter fans or anyone interested in how a band struggled during COVID.
