Synopsis:
"Mott the Hoople: Under Review" is a 90-minute documentary film charting the career and music of one of Rock music's most influential yet all too often neglected bands. Despite being championed by many of modern culture's coolest names - from David Bowie and Morrissey to the Clash and the Sex Pistols (not forgetting Barry Manilow covering an Ian Hunter tune!) - until now this extraordinary group has rarely had the recognition it deserves.

Features Include:
- Historical musical performances re-assessed by our panel of esteemed experts
- Obscure footage, rare interviews and seldom seen photographs
- Previously seen tour film from the private collection of Mott's keyboard wizard Morgan Fischer
- Review, commentary, critique and insight from; Morgan Fisher - the man behind the unique keyboard sound that the band achieved; Mick Jones - Clash guitarist/co-songwriter, and major league MTH fan; Tony Platt and Mick Glossop - Mott The Hoople producers/engineers; Kris Needs - legendary music journalist (NME, Zigzag, Mojo) who set up the original Mott The Hoople fan club in 1972; Nicky Horne - former Radio One and Capital Radio DJ and colleague of the group; John Robb - Music Journalist and Author - and many others
- Live and studio recordings of Mott classics, including; 'All the Young Dudes', 'All the Way from Memphis', 'Honaloochie Boogie', 'Roll Away the Stone', 'Golden Age of Rock n' Roll', 'Saturday Gigs' and many, many more
- Numerous other exclusive features
