Wistful oddball documentary by George Hickenlooper.
Orlando Sentinel
May 21, 2004
Captures Bingenheimer in all his celeb-fondling glory. But it's a forlorn sight, one the film doesn't turn away from as it arcs from giddy inclusion to lonely pathos.
April 30, 2004
Occasionally laughable, often sad, and profoundly evocative of the way we live now, adrift in a culture saturated with celebrity and obsessed by fame.

too much in awe of subject matter

a great doc but sad as hell
Hollywood Reporter
August 10, 2004
Has a commercial reach that goes beyond local hero worship thanks in part to an all-star lineup of interviewees, including Cher, David Bowie, Mick Jagger, Gwen Stefani and Courtney Love, to name just a few confirmed Rod-heads.
Washington Post

Feels like an elegy for an aging rock pixie.
January 15, 2006
By the end, I felt neither happy nor sad for Rodney. I enjoyed being in his presence for 90 minutes, but I can't exactly agree that he has a magnetic personality.

Creepily entertaining.
October 26, 2007
A film that critiques our obsession with celebrity while simultaneously exploiting it.
April 30, 2004
At first a wryly comic study of a real-life, shag-topped Zelig ... Hickenlooper's nuanced documentary shifts into far deeper and darker emotional territory once it starts revealing Bingenheimer's heart-wrenching backstory.
