"U2 -- From The Sky Down Review"
5 stars"

This documentary comes from award winning film maker David Guggenheim (An Inconvenient Truth, It Might Get Loud) This documentary gives us an inside behind the scenes look at one of U2s biggest album’s from the 90’s Achtung Baby, the band take us back toe where the album was recorded, Hansa studios in Berlin. We hear about the internal friction that almost caused the band to break up, we hear the early stages of two of the albums big hits taking shape (Mysterious Ways and One). The finale of this album is brilliant with a performance of their hit One back in the studio where 20 years ago they had recorded the track along with the rest of the album. Overall this documentary is a must see for any music fan and even more so U2 fans.

Description

Early in 2011, U2 returned to Hansa Studio in Berlin to discuss the making of ‘Achtung Baby’…

‘From The Sky Down’ is a new documentary film directed by Academy Award winning director Davis Guggenheim (‘It Might Get Loud’, ‘Waiting for Superman’, ‘An Inconvenient Truth’).

‘From The Sky Down’ was the first ever documentary film to open the prestigious Toronto International Film Festival.

Twenty years after the release of U2's ‘Achtung Baby’ (1991), Davis Guggenheim charts the path toward this groundbreaking album. Guggenheim uses animation and unseen footage from Berlin and Dublin alongside conversation to reveal what is now a key chapter in U2's career.

“In the terrain of rock bands – implosion or explosion is seemingly inevitable. U2 has defied the gravitational pull towards destruction… this band has endured and thrived. From The Sky Down asks the question why.”
