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.”

Loved this film as a teen, but now, as an adult, I understand why the remaining members of the Doors hated it.

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

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.

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.

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.

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

Val did a great JOB playing JIM I love this movie...

Not accurate at all, dumbass.

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.

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

Meg ryan looked the best in this movie

Val Kilmer was insane but why nobody is talking about the guy who played ed Sullivan, I thought it was really him!

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 .

i looked for this drum sequence for years!!!!!!

Dude Johnny Drama can play the shit outta those drums!

I can not believe it. Val did not get an Oscar for this masterpiece. What the f........... God Bless Val Kilmer.

Idk why but it’s really satisfying to hear Stoma talk about Val’s “beautiful, honeyed voice”

The real Paul Rothchild died on March 30, 1995 of lung cancer at age 59.

Bruce Gary was the drummer of The Knack, the band that released "My Sharona". I didn't know he had taught the actor playing John Densmore to play drums

I was born in 91, watched Doors in 98. Wit my uncle Jeff. .

I think they need to make more rock movies like this because this was the best movie that came out of 1991

JUST OLIVER STONE CAN MAKE THIS MOVIE... VAL AND THE OTHERS ARE PERFECT!!!

great movie!I loved it...val is amazing

The best moovie forever....And the best band!

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.

Pretty great movie and brought a lot of attention ack to the music of the Doors.

Hey Bruce Gary from The Knack. Focking great to see him. And RIP

So many mixed emotions about this 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

I always thought that Jeff Buckley carried the spirit of those times .

great drum pattern !

Oliver certainly knew how to capture the feeling of an acid trip!

Excellent!!!

He did a great job coaching Kevin Dillon. I'm not sure if Dillon played drums before doing this movie, but that one clip they showed he was kicking butt! But John Densmore was IN the movie. Not sure why they just didn't get HIM to show Dillon what to do. Robbie Krieger coached Frank Whaley, to make his performance believable. But there are people who can play, and people who can teach. Maybe Densmore wasn't able to teach what he did to someone else. I've often wondered if Dillon kept up with the drums after filming this movie.

Fuck that, outstanding flick

סרט טוב עצוב שזמר כל כך מוכשר ואהוב גמר את החיים לו ככה. זמר הכי טוב בכל הזמנים

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.

I LOVE THE DOORS

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.

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..

What a shame it wasn't a very good film

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.
