Synopsis

Oliver Stone's homage to 1960s rock group The Doors also doubles as a biography of the group's late singer, the "Electric Poet" Jim Morrison.

The movie follows Morrison from his days as a film student in Los Angeles to his death in Paris, France at age 27 in 1971.

The movie features a tour-de-force performance by Val Kilmer, who not only looks like Jim Morrison's long-lost twin brother, but also sounds so much like him that he did much of his own singing.

It has been written that even the surviving Doors had trouble distinguishing Kilmer's vocals from Morrison's originals.

User reviews

Michael Mitchell
8/10

The music in the movie not only complements the storyline but also serves as a character in itself, reflecting the turbulent and passionate nature of Jim Morrison's life and artistry.

Margaret Taylor
3/10

While Val Kilmer's vocal performance was impressive in mimicking Jim Morrison's singing style, it often felt like an imitation rather than a genuine interpretation. This took away from the emotional depth and authenticity that could have been achieved with the original recordings.

David Miller
7/10

Val Kilmer's mesmerizing vocal performance in the movie is so eerily reminiscent of Jim Morrison's own voice that it adds an extra layer of authenticity and immersion to the viewing experience.

9/10

Val Kilmer's incredible vocal performance in the movie is truly impressive, as he manages to embody Jim Morrison's unique voice and style with such authenticity that it's hard to believe it's not actually Morrison singing.

Stephanie Thomas
2/10

The soundtrack of The Doors felt repetitive and lacked diversity in musical styles. It seemed to rely too heavily on the same psychedelic rock sound, making it monotonous to listen to for an extended period of time.

Charles Garcia
8/10

Each song in the soundtrack serves as a powerful storytelling tool, enhancing the emotional depth and complexity of Jim Morrison's character portrayed in the film.

Jennifer Hill
8/10

Overall, the soundtrack of The Doors not only pays homage to the iconic band's legacy but also stands on its own as a remarkable musical achievement that enhances the overall cinematic experience.

Carol Hall
2/10

Some of the song choices in the soundtrack felt disjointed and out of place within the storyline of the film. It seemed as though the music was added as an afterthought rather than being carefully integrated to enhance the narrative and emotional impact of the scenes.
