Movie description
Starting with the band's origins in Forest Hills, Queens, END OF THE CENTURY: THE STORY OF THE RAMONES gives a fascinating background portrait of the eccentric group of individuals who came together to be one of the most influential punk bands in history. This documentary about the New York City renegades who made their mark in the mid-1970s with counterculture lyrics and underground performances at rundown joints like CBGB on the Bowery, shows how the band eventually earned recognition, even being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2002. But it is the insider look at the blue collar upbringing of the band members, and their desire to be part of Manhattan's burgeoning hard-rock scene, that is most endearing about this particular film. In candid interviews with Dee Dee Ramone, he tells stories about the group's total lack of complexity in its earliest days. Going to see contemporary acts like the New York Dolls and Iggy and the Stooges, the Ramones quickly created their own sound and practiced frenetically. When they finally made their debut with an extremely loud sound, furiously fast and short songs, and lots of drama such as blatant on-stage arguments, they practically scared away their fans. While other stars, like Steve Jones of the Sex Pistols, comment on the Ramones' subsequent rise to punk stardom, providing wild stories about sex, drugs, chaos, and tragedy, it is the truly interesting story of the band's start that will linger in viewers' minds.

Editorial reviews
"[A] documentary that digs deep inside this most revolutionary and tortured of punk quartets..." Entertainment Weekly - Owen Gleiberman (08/20/2004) "[A]bsorbing....[T]he music has lasted..." New York Times - Stephen Holden (08/20/2004) "[A]n engaging and emotional documentary..." Los Angeles Times - Kenneth Turan (09/10/2004) "It's the most comprehensive and compelling overview yet of the Ramones' career." Uncut - Carol Clerk (02/01/2005) "There is pathos in their story, and a kind of perverse dignity, but this level-headed film resists the impulse toward instructive moral fable." Sight and Sound - Andrew O'Hehir (02/01/2005) "[R]iveting....The final word on the strange birth, revolutionary genius and dysfunctional adulthood of the mother of all punk bands." Mojo - Mojo Staff (04/01/2005) "[I]ts bitter emotionalism comes from a hopelessly bowl-cut band that was too legit to quit." Rolling Stone - Peter Relic (04/07/2005)
