Supersonic

Documentary, Music

An in-depth look at the life and music of Manchester-based rock band, Oasis.

The critical consensus

Whether you're Team Liam or Team Noel, Whitecross's film does what good retrospective rock-docs should: makes a seismic moment for rock's history books roar with raucously entertaining life again.

****(*)Kevin Harley, The List, 30/09/2016

The excitement of Noel and Liam Gallagher’s rapid rise to pop stardom is well captured in Mat Whitecross’s documentary, but it is disappointingly coy on the band’s decline and breakup.

***(*)(*)Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian, 02/10/2016

The story of Britpop’s iconic band at its peak is told with wit, honesty and swagger. Which, given its two leads, is entirely fitting.

****(*)Jonathan Pile, Empire Online, 03/10/2016

Unfortunately it ends with the band’s Knebworth concerts in 1996 and largely avoids the acrimony between the siblings and the band’s later years.
