Ozzy Osbourne - Crown Prince of Darkness

Rating:
Summary: limited photos
Review: Most of the interviews with Ozzy are done over the phone, while you listen to the interview photo's of Ozzy and other band members flash on the screen. That's where the DVD takes a bad turn, because the same photo's flash over and over. I just feel that there should been more behind the scene's photo's or at least different photo's. Also some of the film footage is shot in black and white out of a car window of passing cars and landscape of England that has nothing to do with Ozzy. Most of the contents are well known facts about Ozzy and his life so for the collecting fan this will be a disapointment, but for a new fan it will help them understand a little of Ozzy's history.

Summary: Great DVD
Review: Ozzy is one of the funniest figures of Metal music and it was a pleasure to watch and listen to the story about him. Even though the Osbournes are very well known family, it is always good to go back and follow Ozzy's career straight from the beginning as it was shown on this DVD. The DVD is unofficial, but still worth checking out.

Summary: Bad Film Makers Trying to Ride Wave of Ozzy Popularity
Review: The disclaimer at the beginning of this 'documentary' pretty much says it all (paraphrasing): "There's not a shred of original Ozzy music played in this film, and it isn't endorsed in any way by the Ozzy Camp" (i.e. it sucks). 5 minutes into this film the horrible soundtrack (a $10 drum machine, I think) and the redundant use of still photographs with cheesy "effects" was almost too much to take. This film is a eclectic bag of snippets, poor quality sound bits and bytes from old Ozzy interviews, and "enhanced" photos slapped together by some of the least talented people I can imagine. An obvious ploy to ride the wave of Ozzy popularity to their benefit - don't buy this DVD, they don't deserve the revenue. I'd change my review to no stars if I could, and Ozzy should sue these losers for putting his name on this worthless dribble. Love Ozzy, hated this DVD.
