So much average

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

To someone who's not a big radiohead fan this film may be boring and uninteresting due to the fact that it doesn't really introduce who the band is and what was their journey. One of the most interesting things about this film is the fact that it has absolutely no narration over it. Akk the dialogue comes from filmed interviews, news clips, or stuff that was filmed of the band by the doc crew. What comes out of it is a phenomenal film which documents what was probably one of the most difficult periods for the band as they nearly split up during the world tour of their incredibly successful OK Computer. Some of my favourite scenes from any film come from this documentary and it remains as one of the most interesting films I've seen.

If you like Radiohead, watch this movie.It's got awesome behind the scenes footage of the band, rare footage of early versions of songs, and some hilarious moments with fans. It was shot during their tour after OK Computer and before Kid A. Obviously this was a very pivotal moment for the band. Really cool to see them play some parts of songs that would come out much later. I wish there were more Radiohead documentaries and movies, but this is really the only legit one. As a result, I have seen it many times. Very dank stuff indeed. I'm going to continue to type because I need ten lines for my review, but if you aren't convinced by now I'm not sure what else could make you watch it!

"Meeting people is easy" is a pretty good documentary of Radiohead's OK Computer world tour. It abruptly begins with concerts (bits and pieces), photo shoots, behind the scenes and interviews with the media through Europe, USA, Japan, Australia and ends back the UK where you hear them recording music for their next 2 albums (Kid A and Amnesiac).Its not really a coherent documentary, with scenes cutting back & forth and some arty stuff chucked in for the sake of it, but this DVD shows the media attention and coverage they received, all because of their highly regarded album OK Computer... they were the in band at the time.From this the stress and tension builds up throughout the world tour and we clearly see them getting emotionally drained. You get to hear them playing bits of new and unfinished music which would be later added onto there next 2 albums, but don't just expect live performances (as there is hardly any). They're a band that's not afraid to experiment with their music. Though this DVD is more about their experiences throughout the tour, then that of their music. Some people might have found this boring but I actually quite enjoyed it. It would've been great to get some full length live performances than that of small snippets (though there is good full length performance at the end) but I found the media's attention towards Radiohead and how it was eating them up, very interesting indeed.4.5/5

"Meeting People Is Easy" is an amazing, groundbreaking work. This is not merely a concert video, nor is it, consciously, a short film. It is a visually stunning, aurally exciting piece that twists your head around in wonderful ways.Don't judge "Meeting People Is Easy" based on whether or not you like the Radiohead that you hear on the radio; nothing could be further from relevant when regarding this film. The concert footage, in conjunction with the searing visual pyrotechnics, brings to light the product of a band of rare quality, skill, and creativeness. Each bandmember is given a moment in the spotlight to show off their individual talents, and the process as a whole is, well, breathtaking.Several people that I know, some Radiohead fans, some not, have attempted to watch the DVD but not been able to finish it. This, almost invariably, comes not from disinterest or disgust, but rather from the overwhelming emotional roller coaster the film progresses along. This can be an exhausting work to take in. If you feel ready to be challenged, however, and, (especially) if you love Radiohead, this DVD is absolutely essential.
