Best movie I’ve seen in a long time. Acting was superb and I lived the 60’s so brought back true to life events and memories. Love Bob Dylan and his music is timeless. Some will think it’s a ‘60’s free love negative connotation which it is not and I can’t say enough about the quality . I watched it again at home but was best at the theatre.

We thought this was a great movie. The acting was so good, the story moved along very well, we were surprised when it ended so quick! We could have watched hours more and enjoyed it. There was a lot of cussing, but it was a good story and worth seeing if you are a music fan of any kind.

Loved every minute of it. Hearing the music is wonderful. Timothy Chalamet does an great job. So glad this music is being passed on to young people. Dylan, like all of us is a complex person. Love that it starts with Woodie Guthrie and Pete Seeger. Can't get enough of hearing Dylan's words and stayed til the last credits which I rarely do. Form your own opinion and don't be swayed by all of the negative reviews. If you feel negative let it be from your own experience not from a reviewer.

Did not like BD before the movie like him even less after. Total waste of time unless you are a fan. I noticed loads of hippy baby boomers in the audience seemed pleased, laughed at the stupid, contrived moments, one damaged soul within earshot was sobbing in response to shameless, contrived fiction. I caught myself checking my iPhone watch every 5 minutes couldn’t take any more of it and I got up and left.

This movie is a lovely, but superficial overview of Dylan's first five years as a performer in The Village, recording artist and concert favourite. The movie and his desire to perform as a rock & roll artist peaked at his highly controversial appearance at the Newport '65 Folk Festival with a rock band. Fellow travelers Joan Baez, Pete Seeger, Suze Rotolo (renamed Sylvie Russo in the movie at Dylan's request), Albert Grossman, Bobby Neuwirth are all portrayed faithfully by a group of wonderful actors. If you are expecting to see a movie that is 100% factually accurate, then you will be disappointed. If you want to see a delightful movie spotlighting the finest folk/rock composer of the 20th century played beautifully by Timothee Chalamet, then by all means go and enjoy 'A Complete Unknown'!

Depressing. I was named after him and i think my hopes were too high. Pretty girlfriends, though. Every time i see scoot mcnair, i think of his great character in killing them softly

No sure why anyone would go see a biopic about Bob Dylan if they weren't a Dylan fan but the stupidity of the movie going public these days never ceases to amaze me. I guess if Dylan wore spandex tights and had laser beams shooting out of his eyes the people on this forum might give it a thumbs up. Sadly, most of them wouldn't know a good movie if hit them in the face.
