Jack Osbourne - God Bless Ozzy Osbourne (DVD)
Eagle Rock Entertainment
www.eaglerockent.com

Rating: B

Jack Osbourne went behind the camera to do a documentary on his famous father, Ozzy Osbourne. The result is a look back at Ozzy from growing up in war torn Aston to his current status as a clean and sober aging rocker looking back at his life.

Jack was able to take the camera into places a normal filmmaker would not be able to take it and the result is up close and very personal interviews with Ozzy’s family and friends. The most emotional moments center on Ozzy’s kids and his failings as a father. Also emotional is Rudy Sarzo speaking of the plane crash that killed guitarist Randy Rhoades.

Much of the historical rhetoric found in the film has been very well documented so sitting through Ozzy and dove or bat biting instances or his drug drooling days where he smeared his own poop on hotel walls has been done before, however, the interviews with Ozzy’s kids, and with Ozzy himself are what make this one special.

You will laugh, be grossed out, be star struck and be bewildered by the end of the show, throughout the flick, though, you will be glued to the set.
