Bob Marley’s universal appeal, impact on music history and role as a social and political prophet is both unique and unparalleled. Marley is the definitive life story of the musician, revolutionary, and legend, from his early days to his rise to international superstardom. Even it has drug content, thematic elements and some violent images you can enjoy this documentary launched in DVD-blu-ray in August 7th

This movie describes life story of Bob Marley from the point of view of many different people who shared his life as well as wonderful film footage of Jamaica and old videos of Bob Marley that most people have never seen and of course it was set to the beautiful soundtrack of his life, his music of peace and struggle, love and war, happiness and sorrow. Even is a little bit long movie, his music and his faith is showed in great detail from many people close to him, including his wife, children, producers and fellow musicians, all lending their voice to unfold Bob’s story. The films compelling portrayal of Marley is told much more through the narrative drama of his life and less through a straight interpretation or celebration of his music. It’s about illuminating Marley’s roots and the trials he faced in his tragically short life. Two thumbs up for this awesome movie!
