Chemicals and reaction
The Chemical Brothers performed a triumphal concert one night at last year’s Fuji Rock Festival in Japan. Director Adam Smith was there to commit a movie. The result is what some critics have suggested is one of the best concert films ever made. Don’t Think (screening in select theaters worldwide starting Wednesday, in the UK on Friday) works because of its fan-centric perspective.
Kia Makarechi of The Huffington Post says it “bravely faces the challenges of translating a concert to the cinema without relying on an imposed narrative frame. Smith's ability to resist layering a hokey story on top of the concert experience is admirable …” It also works because of the sound; it’s being marketed as the first concert recorded in Dolby 7:1 surround sound. Want tickets? Here.
