¡Cuatro! (2012)
"¡Cuatro!" is a unique, raw and unprecedented look inside the world of the multi platinum rock band Green Day. From the band’s home studio in Oakland CA, to various intimate live performances in New York City, Austin TX, Newport Beach and Los Angeles, the film chronicles the band's year and a half long journey writing and recording their recent musical trilogy.

Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.
Awesome Movie
It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.
Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
This has received a Grammy nomination for Best Music Film, and I can see why. It's a good look at the creative process of the musicians at this point in their careers, experimenting for the first time since 1993 by performing to small audiences and then tweaking the albums (Uno, Dos, and Tre) according to their reaction. There is a good mix of interviews/studio time/live performances in the film.Note: You can watch this on Qello.com with a free 7-day trial. Also for the record, I wouldn't consider myself a huge Green Day fan. I've always enjoyed Dookie and American Idiot, and I saw them at Lollapalooza in 2010, but otherwise find it difficult to listen to most Green Day albums from start to finish.
