For very serious fans only, Back Street Stories is an unauthorized documentary about the Backstreet Boys. There are no performances included here. The content is a series of interviews with four people, including an Orlando DJ, who have stories about the Backstreet Boys. These are played over repeating video clips. One man was involved with the group's early days, but his connection is never explained. Also, his story of the formation of the band differs from that of the off-screen narrator.

The Backstreet Boys themselves are featured in several interview sequences in which they are sometimes quoted out of context. The video footage of some very young boys on their first trip to New York City is mildly amusing. However, the 50-minute running time relies too heavily on repeating video segments. The DVD includes a feature that will cycle still photos and short video segments, all previously shown, for each Backstreet Boy. --Larry Clark

Customer Reviews

I love BSB, but this was a huge waste of time and money!
I love the Backstreet Boys, especially BRIAN, more than anything in the world! I have every one of their movies, including this one. This movie doesn't even include very much of them, though. Most of it is people talking about them. Plus, it was filmed so long ago, that they are WAY young. I would really recommend something more recent, like their new Homecoming: Live in Orlando one! I LOVE YOU BRIAN!

If you get only ONE BSB video, don't get this one
This video was not bad as much as it was stuff that most fans already know. There was footage from some interviews that haven't been seen in the U.S. but the narration was rather annoying with a thick accent and details any fan already knows. I would recommend that anyone who is getting a Backstreet Boys video consider "A Night out with the Backstreet Boys", "Live in Orlando", or "Live in concert" if you want live performance and "All Access" or "Backstreet Boys the Video". This video is unauthorized and the authorized videos have better footage and more interesting comentary because they assume you are a fan if you buy it.

Ok, not the best, but worth watching.
well, its not that good. its worth watching because of the behind the scenes of when they started out, nick looks so little. All of them do. but its pretty bad footage and its the same thing over and over. I would not personally recomend it but it does have some perks. It would be worth like renting and watching if it were available but not to own and watch over and over. Get the Live In Concert Video if you want a good one to watch, or even The Video, not this.
