The Doors - The Doors Are Open

Review: As a huge Jim Morrison fan, I was so excited about purchasing this DVD. Unfortunately, the sound was awful (low grade) and the news footage took away from the music. I was hoping for more interviews, and clips of Jim and the boys, but they're weren't many. I wouldn't have wasted my money if I had known.

Review: I am a Doors fan. I love the Doors. I am rating the DVD, not the group. My opinion is that this DVD has a great documentary of the group. However, the reason why I purchased the DVD was because of the 5.1 Dolby Digital Surround recording. Once I purchased the DVD and listened in my surround sound system, I became very dissapointed of the sound. The sound really sucked. My AM kitchen radio sounded better than the DVD. I am not taking away the content of the DVD which is excellent. The sound is just poor for 5.1 Dolby Digital.

Review: Jim Morrison, real rock star. In stage he is like a Guru with too many people following him. Watch It.

Summary: Execellent look at a real Doors concert
Review: Jim, Ray, Robby & Jon. Blitzed out of their collective mind, lost in their own music. If all you know is "Light my Fire" and "Break on Through" this may not be for you. If you "know" The Doors, this it a must.

Summary: Quintessential Doors
Review: Screw the guy that said the sound quality makes this tape unbearable. This tape is a documentary of the Doors in their prime. Morrison is depicted as both the thinker and the showman. A Doors fan must own this, as should anyone interested in one of the greatest bands ever.

Summary: This video shows the Doors at their peak
Review: The Doors are Open is a documentary of the Doors performance at the Roundhouse Theatre in September '68. Filmed in black and white, this video has the Doors performing their best songs at the top of their game. Morrison's grunts and spews his poetry throughout. Originally this documentary was filmed for English television, interspersed with the music are scenes from Vietnam and riots back in the states. Although the Doors were not a politically motivated band, this video really puts into context the tumultuous times they were living in. Anyone interested in Morrison or the Doors would serve themselves well to own this video. There are only a few filmed Doors concerts out there, and this is about as good as it gets.
