It's too bad Jack Bauer was busy solving an international terrorist crisis. As seen with unflinching eyes in this wickedly entertaining documentary, Kiefer Sutherland could have used the organizational powers of his 24-star alter-ego to help him with his duties as road manager of a burgeoning rock band. Sutherland is exposed as steadfast devotee of Rocco DeLuca & The Burden as he tries his best to manage the details of the band's brief winter, 2005 tour of Europe. In addition to his career as a famous actor, Sutherland is also co-founder of the indie record label Ironworks Music, and as I Trust You to Kill Me proves, he's clearly the #1 fan of Ironworks' up-and-comers Rocco DeLuca & The Burden. The band's tour of small clubs took them to London, Dublin, Reykjavík, Berlin, and points in between. Director Manu Boyer lets his camera linger over the best and worst of it all. Some of the worst is of Sutherland as he ineptly (but utterly sincerely) tries to pump the band up at every opportunity, whether it's doing radio promos, hauling heavy amps into a London nightclub in the freezing cold, or slyly handing out tickets in Dublin pubs and street corners for an undersold show. It's hilarious to see him simultaneously exploiting and enjoying his celebrity status with passersby--some of whom know who he is, others only vaguely realizing that they ought to know who he is. Director Boyer also does some nosy prodding into Sutherland's private life, especially after he's hefted a few pints (the clip of Sutherland taking a drunken running dive into the Christmas tree in a posh London hotel was brief a YouTube smash after the film first aired on VH-1). We see the crawling-up end of the rock 'n' roll lifestyle from Sutherland's point of view and from the band's. Though it's certainly not the best rock concert movie, there is some terrific footage of The Burden performing their bloozy brand of rock behind DeLuca's raw wail. In spite of Sutherland's "help," the band may have a good chance at gaining a following. I Trust You to Kill Me (the title of The Burden's first album) documents both a personal journey for Kiefer Sutherland and a glimpse at the hardscrabble of a band clawing their way up. On both counts it's great fun and a terrific piece of rock 'n' roll entertainment. --Ted Fry

I actually picked this DVD up at the local video store. I saw Keifer on the cover and being the 24 fan that I am I read the description on the back of the DVD and thought "Why not", so I rented it. I was impressed by this documentary. I thought it was cool seeing Keifer drunk; he's hilarious. If there was one person in the world I would like to spend the day with, it would be him. But, the main attraction in my oppinion is definitely Rocco Deluca & The Burden. I love their southern fried sound! ... Read More

i dont think it was worth the $20 i paid for it. I was under the impression it was more about kiefer than the band he was promoting, so i was wrong there.
Rating: -
the doc is excellent and the music is of course rocca de luca and the burden; even the music that is not performed live is their music. i'm predicting right now in 2007 that this band will be the next led zeppelin of this century.

Highly recommend this documentary to anyone who's a fan of the band or even just curious about their music. Although I would've prefered seeing more of the band/less of Keifer (though he does provide many laughs), it's a great documentary of a band struggling to get their name out there. And after seeing the band, live in concert, myself, I think this DVD should be in everyone's collection! Go see Rocco Deluca and the Burden!

This movie was a fun and intimate look at Keifer Sutherland's music label's first band: Rocco DeLucca and the Burden as they toured Europe for the first time. It was a lot of fun to watch, and the music was great.
