"Rock is Cock." Indeed, this film participates in rock star commodity fetishism, deifying Jim Morrison as a dionysian Phallic God -- a feat only Val Kilmer could pull off.
Oliver Stone is often accused of mythologizing. In this case, that accusation is just. Still, this movie is smart in its understanding of the art icon in the Andy Warhol sense. But that understanding is puerile in film.
