Would’ve been way better. Densmore is jealous of Jim and says a lot of untruths. Ray and Robbie were very unhappy with the way Jim was portrayed in the movie and that was due to Oliver Stone using John Densmore’s accounts instead. Never use a jealous man’s “memories.”
Oliver did well portraying Jim’s public persona, but never relayed the wise, down to earth, intensely interesting conversationalist Jim on interviews I’ve heard. Still I’ll watch the full movie when ever I catch it on.
jason crumpet well really ray was the only one who despised it. I don't think Robbie and John minded it. John even said Val Kilmer should've gotten an award for his performance as Jim.
Doesn’t show the true nature of the real Jim Morrison who by all accounts seemed like a genuinely nice guy when the legend and all that is stripped away.Best book on Jim IMO is Jim Morrison :Life Death Legend by Steven Davis
Clouded Mind we all might not know how jim was really like in person we all weren’t there obviously but I mean. There is a thing called like interviews & documentaries & biographies from the ppl that really knew jim & where there
Debra Franklin's yea don’t get me wrong I like the movie but I like it because is the only doors movie we have and some parts are very Jim like but they exaggerated the wild persona of jim and it’s not accurate, Oliver just wanted to make it more entertaining I get that, it’s a movie but don’t fuck up Jim Morrison’s legacy like that. Only true fans will know.
I see a lot of people here criticizing the movie. First off, to depict a character as deep and complex as Jim Morrison is pretty much impossible, Val Kilmer probably did about as good a job as anyone could. Jim did more things in one day then most do in a lifetime and not even Ray understood a lot of what he was really trying to do or say. I'm talking about “real” things not just going to work, walking the dog, mowing the lawn etc. Second, to take the thousands of things done by these guys and discuss them all in a two hour movie is also quite impossible. Stone's method was to blend several instances or characters into one. This of course is not “literally” accurate but was an attempt to give an overall feel for the Doors and the time. The movie is a work of art and philosophy not a documentary.
Thoriel Criafer I don't think anyone is criticizing Val Kilmer,he did a remarkable job as an actor portraying Morrison. I think most people criticizing the movie are more frustrated with Oliver Stone's interpretation of Morrison. Certainly, some artistic license is to be expected, but portraying Morrison as a falling down drunk, or being high 24/7 is not only inaccurate, but unfair as well. The Doors wrote, recorded and released 5 albums in the short 4 years that they were together...presumably Morrison had to have been sober at various points to be able to do that. Interviews with him that have come out in the years since his death show a lucid, thoughtful and intelligent man. There were other totally inaccurate scenes in the film; I saw The Doors when they did Light My Fire on The Ed Sullivan Show in '67, and Morrison never made an animated, over dramatic facial expression when he said the word "higher" during the song. He never lunged at the camera as he said that word, as Kilmer did in the film ( assume not that Kilmer was directed to do so by Stone); he put no more emphasis on that lyric than he did any other line in the song. Had The Doors been a fictional band, then Stone could have gotten away with interpreting the story any way he wanted to. But they were real, an important part of music history, and their story deserves to be told in an honest way. At the very least, more honestly than Stone told it. Artistic license is condensing the story to fit the time allotted, perhaps leaving certain things out, etc. But completely altering the truth, or portraying a real person as someone they are not ( or weren't) is not artistic license. It's just fiction.
the band never did peyote together in the desert, jim never tried to burn pam alive, jim never lunged at the camera on the ed sullivan show, ray believed in jim way more than shown in the movie, and jim wasn’t a drunken asshole to everyone who ever asked him a question. i could go on. the movie is straight up disrespectful to not only Jim but the whole band as each of them is so 1-dimensional. Oliver Stone takes way too many liberties in other films too, especially Salvador. He dramatizes scenes, events, and people that don’t need any changes made. If it takes too long to shed light on who Jim really was then maybe it should have been a 3 hour movie (like malcom x) or no movie at all.
Kilmer really did a great job not easy role to play loved the movie & the doors are still my favorite band and probably always will be music is timeless
Saw them in the Men’s Gym at Long Beach State College on December 1, 1967, a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away... Opening act, Canned Heat. We sat in the bleachers. I was 16. ‘Tis a magical musical memory still turning in the windmills of my mind.
Always felt Jason Patric (The Los Boys) could of rocked it as Jim. He had the leer, the darkness, whereas Val was too bright eyed, but did a great performance. There were great parts in the movie and some bad ones, what can you do. //g
I went to see this when it came out in the cinemas in '91 tripping on blotter. I thoroughly enjoyed everything about it. After the movie we all went to our favourite night-club called "The Doors" in Johannesburg and danced to classic rock and alternative until the wee hours of the morn. Great weekend that was. Probably wouldn't enjoy the movie now as much as I did then though.
Val did an incredible job playing JIM. Great movie and acting. Not totally historically accurate at times and portrayed Jim more negatively than many remember. Still great job imo.
This was and still is an incredible movie. Oliver stone created a great tribute to this beautiful complex and ultimately enigmatic God of rock. Val Kilmer became Jim Morrison. I love this movie!
Funniest thing is that when I watch this movie, I can't even see the actors "acting" the members of the Doors. I just see Ray Manzarek, Jim Morrison, Robbie Krieger and John Densmore. You tell me that Jim is Val Kilmer? That Ray is Kyle MacLachlan, for god's sake? Frank Whaley is Robbie? I mean look at the actors outside of the movie, and tell me those are the same people acting The Doors! It is insane. Some cosmic event happened in this movie and turned those actors into the people they were portraying man. Hahaha Val is _still_ Jim in the interview... the way he speaks... tbh I think it took Val YEARS to completely get Jim out of his system.
Thank you for bringing this up. Ray was actually a pretty down to earth and pleasant man who had a real love for playing music. He had intelligence and complexities but he really wasn't a "stuffed shirt." He was also far fonder of Jim than we see in the movie. Stone doesn't really give very dimensional portraits of the other Doors either.
Horrible movie. Not even close to the real Doors' experience. Jim was much more than a druggie, drunk, sex symbol. He was much deeper. This movie was superficial as hell.
it may not have been 100 percent accurate and they showed his drinking side and drug side more than the soft poetic side of jim. but the live singing and playing was 100 percent accurate for sure. add the more softer poetic side to the live musical playing and its a way better film. the intro was great too.
Love The Doors. Love the movie. I continue to watch it once in awhile. I met Ray at his book signing at Borders Books at the Northridge mall. Purchased his book and he signed it and also signed my Doors album. My album is framed and on my wall. I will never forget that night.
Before the 'Doors' became famous they would play a lot at the end of Windward at the community centers lawn, and some times on the large drain pipe near the center. Other groups played yr ed there constantly around the mid 1960s. Ironically I had 4 days work as a cop and a hippie in the film .
Patricia was never backstage at the New Haven Concert in a bathroom with Jim it was with an unknown brunette, so allot of the stuff in the movie was exaggerated and such...
Most of the Patricia K stuff in the movie was a collage of true events involving different women. Stone said if he were doing it over again he would have given the character in the film a fictional name.
I love this movie for what it is... an Oliver Stone film. This is no diff than what Tarantino did with Inglorious Basterds. These filmmakers can take all the liberties they want.
Ray Manzarek, the real keyboard player for the doors HATED the movie, he called Oliver Stone a putz for portraying Jim as a drunk and drug addict, he said there was so much more to Jim. Morrison was incredibly literate and although destructive when Jim wasn't drunk he was a beautiful person and very intelligent
I loved this movie when it came out around 1991. I was 23 years old back then. But after hearing different interviews with the late Ray Manzarek saying that Jim Morrison wasn’t exactly the same persona like Val Kilmer in the movie, I suddenly realized that he was absolutely right about it. I must agree with Ray Manzarek all the way. By far, Jim Morrison was a much better human being than what was presented in this movie. I think that Oliver Stone made a laughing mockery out of Jim Morrison by making him look more violent and more like a jerk. Besides, it’s been proven that there’s been a lot of fuckups in the events and most of the chronological dates were wrong in the movie as well. Thank you. Johnny, Montréal, Canada.
A typical Oliver Stone movie, based on fact, just very little of it. But he still makes very entertaining movies, just don't use them as a source for real history.
Somebody gets it. Just because it’s all false doesn’t mean it can’t be a good movie. You can very easily find a real account of all of these moments anyway.
Val Kilmer is a great actor and did his best with what he had to work with,however Oliver Stone is known to make up his own stories while using non fictional characters in his movies ,the movie and pretty much the rest of the cast were total crap.
One of the worst aspects of this extremely average film is the use of terrible and obvious wigs. Completely distracting and unnecessary for a big budget film like this.

Enjoyed the film thought Val did great as Jim. Interesting fact :Jim was starstruck when he bumped into John Lennon at some event in the 60s. Couldnt speak just froze on the spot.
For those of you out there who think this Doors movie represents the true story of Jim Morrisons life you are delusional. OLIVER STONE should be ashamed of putting out such garbage. Its 100% crap
Im sorry but what ive seen Oliver Stone movies suck generic crap. One or two but this movie was alright but he focused on Jim being drunk 24/7. I dont think that is possible, but yeah this movie is cool
I love Oliver stone movies but i do wish he would be more accurate about things. Some things an not put his “I wish it went like this” in his movies. Especially about Jim.
well, it is art...and when you exaggerate the front man of a popular front man, it just seems like parody lol it's stupid. the band is great. robby wrote a lot of the songs, ray was a classical instrumental genius
Dave Goffredo I agree with you 100% I saw an interview with ray & he did not like how Stone portrayed jim & Ray even said he wanted to deck stone because that’s how jim wasn’t in real life why did he even make this movie ? That’s what he said in the interview I agree with ray 100%
В этом фильме есть герой, наблюдать за судьбой которого очень интересно, а вот, к примеру, современный фильм про Queen и Freddie Mercury - отстой, это одноразовый фильм, там не представлен и не раскрыт такой герой как Jim
It's too bad Ray is gone, I've always hoped he'd make a real Doors film, and of course direct it. He would have shown the real Morrison, the erudite poet, the modern day renaissance man as Paul Rothchild once referred to him. Instead of the caricature of Jim, the black clad leather demon, the drunk. Of course he was also these things as well, but a film about the man, the funny, the storyteller, the human side of James Douglas Morrison..
This film would have won an acedemy award for best music fiction documentary.....that is if The Doors didn't really exist...... To see The REAL DOORS..... May i suggest " When You're Strange" and Feast of Friends DVDs. The real music...the real DOORS.
Imagine a Doors movie in Ray Manzarek hands.
The soft parade exists
@@AvanRoyOfficial it's a documentary, not a movie.
Would’ve been like 5 hours long with extra details & properly recalled events
@@JNava I'd still watch it 5 hours hell even over 9,000 hours
Would’ve been way better. Densmore is jealous of Jim and says a lot of untruths. Ray and Robbie were very unhappy with the way Jim was portrayed in the movie and that was due to Oliver Stone using John Densmore’s accounts instead. Never use a jealous man’s “memories.”
i looked for this drum sequence for years!!!!!!
always thought Harry Hamlin from clash of the titans resemble him the most
He does, but was too old by the time they made this movie. It starts with Jim in college.
NO NO NO, Chicago is America's most legendary rock band. I think the Doors were awesome, but they did not have the complete package like Chicago.
Oliver did well portraying Jim’s public persona, but never relayed the wise, down to earth, intensely interesting conversationalist Jim on interviews I’ve heard. Still I’ll watch the full movie when ever I catch it on.
Yeah you're right. But this is all we got, and it's okay.
Loved this film as a teen, but now, as an adult, I understand why the remaining members of the Doors hated it.
jason crumpet same as me
Dave Goffredo like wise man loved it as a young man but now I’m older & it’s like I have to agree with the rest of the band & you two guys
jason crumpet well really ray was the only one who despised it. I don't think Robbie and John minded it. John even said Val Kilmer should've gotten an award for his performance as Jim.
Same
Doesn’t show the true nature of the real Jim Morrison who by all accounts seemed like a genuinely nice guy when the legend and all that is stripped away.Best book on Jim IMO is Jim Morrison :Life Death Legend by Steven Davis
Jim Morrison was a better person.
True
Yes he was. This is so inacurrate
Debra Franklin's how do you know? Were you there?
Clouded Mind we all might not know how jim was really like in person we all weren’t there obviously but I mean. There is a thing called like interviews & documentaries & biographies from the ppl that really knew jim & where there

The guy in the movie is a jerk. I wouldn't want anything to do with that guy.
Ray Manzarek
IntoTheHeartOfMusic when did he said that?
The actor or actually ray?

@@wheelmantony It's called cinematic license.
Well said
It's a cool movie.
Val Kilmer did great!!! No one could have done a better job
He also played a great John Holmes
He couldn't even sing like him!
I could’ve
@JoeJoe do you have ears?
He always told everyone to refer to him as Jim.
Kilmer really did a great job not easy role to play loved the movie & the doors are still my favorite band and probably always will be music is timeless

Even though he exaggerated Jim Morrison, this is still a great movie
Absolutely
Meg ryan looked the best in this movie
Val did a great JOB playing JIM I love this movie...
Ruby Eversole Lamb me too! Love it!
Just the first half is good.. the rest is bullshit lol
The real Paul Rothchild died on March 30, 1995 of lung cancer at age 59.
Jim Morrison,Batman,Doc Holiday.

Philip II of Macedon, The Saint
Agent Cooper, Brett, Ethan Hawke-lookalike-Densmore
Always felt Jason Patric (The Los Boys) could of rocked it as Jim. He had the leer, the darkness, whereas Val was too bright eyed, but did a great performance.
There were great parts in the movie and some bad ones, what can you do.
//g
JUST OLIVER STONE CAN MAKE THIS MOVIE... VAL AND THE OTHERS ARE PERFECT!!!
So many mixed emotions about this movie.
Val Kilmer was insane but why nobody is talking about the guy who played ed Sullivan, I thought it was really him!
still one of the best rock biopics
Herve B *the worst
Iliyana Serrano exactly, it was so far off
Wonderful job. Val brought Jim back to life.
I can not believe it. Val did not get an Oscar for this masterpiece. What the f........... God Bless Val Kilmer.

Val Kilmer's best performance
Love this movie. Love The Doors. Love Jim Morrison. Thankyou 🙏🏻💖🌠
This was and still is an incredible movie. Oliver stone created a great tribute to this beautiful complex and ultimately enigmatic God of rock. Val Kilmer became Jim Morrison. I love this movie!
Critics aside, Stone captures the culture, dynamics, spirit of those times...
i can't believe this only has 745 likes.....most are mine....

Kevin Dillon is killing it on the drums😮

In the movie they made Ray as a stuffed shirt prick which he was not

He was much deeper. This movie was superficial as hell.
Hey Bruce Gary from The Knack. Focking great to see him. And RIP
it may not have been 100 percent accurate and they showed his drinking side and drug side more than the soft poetic side of jim. but the live singing and playing was 100 percent accurate for sure. add the more softer poetic side to the live musical playing and its a way better film. the intro was great too.

Ironically I had 4 days work as a cop and a hippie in the film .
I think they need to make more rock movies like this because this was the best movie that came out of 1991
IT'S HARD TO TELL SOMETIMES WHERE JIM BEGINS AND VAL ENDS!!!
LOVE THIS MOVIE
I was born in 91, watched Doors in 98.
Wit my uncle Jeff. .
Fuck that, outstanding flick

Ellie Bean the guy at 4:55 shoulve played as Robby Krieger.
I actually worked with Jim and it's as accurate as it gets
To many embellishments or out and out lies. Wasn’t necessary.
I love this movie for what it is... an Oliver Stone film. This is no diff than what Tarantino did with Inglorious Basterds. These filmmakers can take all the liberties they want.
Yes it is, cuz Quentin writes alone. Oliver only CO..... Wrote The Doors Movie!
Kevin Dillion's a pretty good percussionist
love that meg ryan...wow
Ray Manzarek, the real keyboard player for the doors HATED the movie, he called Oliver Stone a putz for portraying Jim as a drunk and drug addict, he said there was so much more to Jim.

Even Ray was miscast.Kiefer Sutherland should've gotten the role.
The best moovie forever....And the best band!
Had that movie, loaned it out
Never got it back
FROM THE LIZARD KING TO BATMAN
loved this movie
What a shame it wasn't a very good film
It was interesting to see a film about the doors. But the film was shite.
Love this movie .... Val was Jim

I love that the movie. I feel like Jim Morsting. I wish Jim is still alive ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Val Kilmer is a great actor and did his best with what he had to work with,however Oliver Stone is known to make up his own stories while using non fictional characters in his movies ,the movie and pretty much the rest of the cast were total crap.
Idk why but it’s really satisfying to hear Stoma talk about Val’s “beautiful, honeyed voice”
loved the movie
Kevin Dillon from entourage?
epic movie
One of the worst aspects of this extremely average film is the use of terrible and obvious wigs. Completely distracting and unnecessary for a big budget film like this. In fact, the production and directing are garbage, amateur nonsense. The only saving grace is the casting, which I quite liked. Kilmer in particular was great, despite the absurd caricature nature of Morrison presented by Stone's boring vision. This movie harmed the legacy of Jim Morrison in its cartoonish depiction of the rock star.
Enjoyed the film thought Val did great as Jim. Interesting fact :Jim was starstruck when he bumped into John Lennon at some event in the 60s. Couldnt speak just froze on the spot.
Excellent!!!
this film is nothin but a headline.............. therte's no heart here.......... stone is ridiculous....
For those of you out there who think this Doors movie represents the true story of Jim Morrisons life you are delusional. OLIVER STONE should be ashamed of putting out such garbage. Its 100% crap
Legendary band... awful and superficial movie
Im sorry but what ive seen Oliver Stone movies suck generic crap. One or two but this movie was alright but he focused on Jim being drunk 24/7. I dont think that is possible, but yeah this movie is cool
wish they hadn't . this movie is GARBAGE. AND LIES.
Oliver Stone - great cast bad director. Totally inaccurate portrayal of Morrison + lots of things that never happened.
I love Oliver stone movies but i do wish he would be more accurate about things. Some things an not put his “I wish it went like this” in his movies. Especially about Jim.
Awful and grotesque interpretation of Jim Morrison and the Doors.
well, it is art...and when you exaggerate the front man of a popular front man, it just seems like parody lol it's stupid. the band is great. robby wrote a lot of the songs, ray was a classical instrumental genius
That’s Hollywood for ya !
Morrison was Society's introduction to The 'Me Generation' Narcissism that is rampant today.
que asombrosa película, quiero verla en Netflix o Amazon, para disfrutarla en Alta Definición.
I always thought that Jeff Buckley carried the spirit of those times .
LOVE THE MOVIE
I like when Val made an audio recording of him and played it along with Jim actually singing and he could not tell the difference
One of the best bio-pics of a musician(s) made.
Hated how they portrayed Jim in the movie
I lived each day of the 60s and loved Jim Morrison and...I was in this film....HE WAS like this......and its OK....
Giovanni Loera it was awful the way they portrayed Jim as a mindless drunk.
Dave Goffredo I agree with you 100% I saw an interview with ray & he did not like how Stone portrayed jim & Ray even said he wanted to deck stone because that’s how jim wasn’t in real life why did he even make this movie ? That’s what he said in the interview I agree with ray 100%
The same kind of person who could read Allen Ginsberg's "Howl" while in JR high (as stated by his former girlfriend Tandy Martin from high school)
Same person they described on Last 24 hours of Jim Morrison
Pretty great movie and brought a lot of attention ack to the music of the Doors.
This movie was fantasy. Stone took ridiculous liberties with the story of the Doors.
@ML8593wy
Wrong, dumbass!!!! A movie is a WRITER'S view. Director just Directs.
Cool
Cool Indeed, man!
В этом фильме есть герой, наблюдать за судьбой которого очень интересно, а вот, к примеру, современный фильм про Queen и Freddie Mercury - отстой, это одноразовый фильм, там не представлен и не раскрыт такой герой как Jim
hard to believe this was 30 years ago.....
Val really looks like Jim
Except, No!
PEOPLE THINK THAT AXL ROSE STARTED THE JUMPING INTO THE CROWD THING BUT IT WAS JIM THAT DID!
Deborah Anderson What actor from the 90s do you think would've been great as Axl Rose if a GNR film came out in the late 90s?
Nobody thinks Axl Rose started the "jumping into the crowd" thing because he didn't.
AME ESTA PELICULA......AL PUNTO DEL FANATISMO EN 1994😁😁🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Horrid one-sided portrayal of Jim Morrison.
My god chill it's a film ffs
It's too bad Ray is gone, I've always hoped he'd make a real Doors film, and of course direct it. He would have shown the real Morrison, the erudite poet, the modern day renaissance man as Paul Rothchild once referred to him. Instead of the caricature of Jim, the black clad leather demon, the drunk. Of course he was also these things as well, but a film about the man, the funny, the storyteller, the human side of James Douglas Morrison..
Nu seamănă.dar e bun filmul.dar nimeni nu a reușit sa l egaleze pe jim
Best band, worst movie
This film would have won an acedemy award for best music fiction documentary.....that is if The Doors didn't really exist...... To see The REAL DOORS..... May i suggest " When You're Strange" and Feast of Friends DVDs. The real music...the real DOORS.
