Featured review
I wish it was better because it deserved to be, but it was all over the place in terms of the timeline. Nothing was really in chronilogical order, which was a shame.
They moved from one album to the next, but the next was the album before they just went over, so it needed some real good re-editing.
Knowing Me, Knowing You is covered, but that album came after the next song, Dancing Queen, in the documentary. It made no sense, and some of the stuff was repeated too many times like Agnetha's fear of flying, she literally talked about that 5-6 times.
And the biggest shame is they did't interview any of the band members for this documentary, it's all old footage.
