'Devo' Documentary Premieres at Sundance: Critics Call for More Depth

The film traces the iconic band's history but falls short in providing insight into their ideology and motivations, according to reviews.

The documentary 'Devo' premiered at Sundance, offering a look into the iconic band's history and influence.
The film, directed by Chris Smith, traces the band's journey from its formation in the aftermath of the Kent State massacre to its rise to fame and eventual fall.
Despite the band's significant impact on music and culture, the documentary has been criticized for its lack of depth and insight into the band's ideology and motivations.
The film primarily features interviews with band members, with Mark Mothersbaugh being the most prominent voice.
Both reviews note that the documentary could have benefited from additional perspectives, such as historians, journalists, or music critics.
