Rating: 2/5 -- X Japan's dedication to music remains admirable but Kijak's film places them on a similar pedestal to that of their swooning fans when it's a closet stashed full of skeletons that would've provided the braver and far more worthwhile material to inspect. Full Review

Invoking the spirit of an epic rock show, WE ARE X expresses all the energy, joy and sadness of X Japan’s music.

Rating: 3/5 -- We Are X does well in showing how X-Japan became famous but like Yoshiki himself, is too mysterious and enigmatic that it keeps the viewer from arm's length, wanting to know more. Full Review

Rating: 3/5 -- Good anecdotes - but the film's willingness to indulge the band's rampant self-mythologising can get tiresome. Full Review
