Diagonaldi Very well executed

Actuakers One of my all time favorites.

Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Francene Odetta It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

beresfordjd I have just watched this for the umpteenth time in 40 years and even as a die-hard Stones fan I have to say this film is really not worth it as a record of the Rolling Stones performance. They really seem to be going through the motions especially Wyman. Perhaps they felt they could not cancel due to Brian Jones' death and so they went ahead. Out of tune and under-rehearsed the playing is less than one would expect even as early as this in their career. Mick Taylor makes a decent job of his first live gig (talk about pressure!!)The African percussion was an appalling idea and I am sure if any performance was as bad as this one then they would have been canned off at any other time. Jagger (bless him) is as phony as he always is-I love the fact that I have never been sure which is the real Mick as every time I see him interviewed he has a different accent. Don't get me wrong I still hero worship him and his band-no-one has done what they have done and probably never will. Never judge the Stones on a given performance-the next one will be as awful or as brilliant as you have ever seen.This film is just a snapshot of a particular time and day and as such is worth looking at.

Peter Hayes The time, the Summer of 1969. The place, London's Hyde Park. The group, The Rolling Stones #2.Literally days after the mysterious death of their former leader (Brian Jones) the new look Stones gather in London's largest park to play a - prearranged - free concert to more than 250,000 casual onlookers and fans.(Read Bill Wyman's autobiography "Stone Alone" for the detailed back-story.)An hour long documentary about the day - rather than a strict concert film - Stones in the Park captures the famous rock band in musical and personal disarray: Traveling to the show to the innocent chatter of children; the 60's nonsense philosophy (including Jagger's rambling London School of Economics maths that gets too complicated for him!); setting free the White Moth Butterflies (most still alive - despite what you might read elsewhere) and reading Shelley in honour of their recently departed/sacked (and now largely forgotten about) founder.As a stage climax they bring on painted "African tribesmen" for a half-hearted rendition of "Sympathy For the Devil." Presumably a reference to the (unfortunate) black magic/occult trip that they were on at the time. The large crowd behaved well, and to thank them the weak English sun shone on their straggly long hair, bright clothes and beads..How silly, ramshackle and amateurish it all looks today - especially with baby-faced Hells Angels as stage security guards. But somehow oh-so-very British We even glimpse an untroubled Paul McCartney wandering about among the crowd.(The Stones paid the ultimate price when they tried to repeat the trick at Altamont Speedway in the USA, but that is another story and another film.)More random and abstract thoughts: Doesn't Mick Jagger sound like a public school headmaster when asking for silence. How under-powered the amps look (could everyone actually hear?). How mediocre and listless the band performance was, featuring the ever-hesitating new boy Mick Taylor ("I am the only guy to leave the Rolling Stones and live") on wishy-washy lead.Wouldn't it be great to see members of the crowd today (especially the girl stage invaders) and see what Father Time does to all of us. Although I hear it is kinder to those that don't take loads of hard drugs and visit the dentist at regular intervals - any reference to actual members of the Rolling Stones, in that statement, should be taken as pure coincidence...
