Metallica: Some Kind of Monster (2004) - Documentary Review
Download MP3This week on All2ReelToo’s Documentary Review Series, we dive into the raw, emotional, and brutally honest world of Metallica in the groundbreaking documentary Metallica: Some Kind of Monster (2004).
What starts as the recording process for the band’s St. Anger album quickly turns into something far deeper — a look inside the chaos, pressure, and personal struggles threatening to tear one of the biggest metal bands in history apart. From James Hetfield’s battle with alcoholism to the departure of longtime bassist Jason Newsted, the film captures Metallica at one of the most vulnerable moments in their career while attempting to rebuild both the band and themselves with the help of a psychotherapist.
Directed by Joe Berlinger and Bruce Sinofsky, this unforgettable documentary stars James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich, Kirk Hammett, and Robert Trujillo.
