Plot summary

From Lemmy filmmaker Wes Orshoski comes the story of the long-ignored pioneers of punk: The Damned, the first U.K. punks on wax and the first to cross the Atlantic. This authorized film includes appearances from Chrissie Hynde, Mick Jones (The Clash), Lemmy and members of Pink Floyd, Black Flag, GNR, the Sex Pistols, Blondie, Buzzcocks, and more. Shot around the globe over three years, the film charts the band's complex history and infighting, as it celebrated its 35th anniversary and found its estranged former members striking out on their own anniversary tour, while still others battle cancer.

Overall an interesting movie for Damned fans, but

Overall an interesting movie for Damned fans, but somewhat awkwardly put together. Production wise, audio jumps and spikes in certain footage and then gets quieter, making you want to cover your ears and then let go quickly. The editing was strangely ordered, the over all story of events was chronological, but then corresponding footage and interviews would jump backwards in time without explanation. Many of the subjects involved aren't properly introduced or lack titles below them and it takes a long time to figure out who is being interviewed and who are being referenced. A lot of the footage feels like it was used to kill time. There are large pointless sections that don't tell the story or entertain. Overall it's worth watching for fans, especially for the captain sensible scenes.
