Rating: Summary: The best and most packed DVD i've purchased Review: Any fan of this band,album and Movie. This is the DVD we've ALL been waiting for! Full of extra footage, documentaries and cool stills of various art for THE WALL. This is really worth the asking price and I highly recommend it to anyone who's tired of that old Dusty VHS version that you might have lying around in your house. Over 5 hours long! By The Way the audio commentary by Roger Waters during the movie is really amusing as you get to hear (and see in the documentary feature) a side of Roger that we are not used to hearing (or seeing). BUY BUY BUY!
Rating: Summary: Now it makes sense! Review: This Pink Floyd classic looks and sounds better than ever on this DVD - I just wish I had 5.1 Dolby Digital! (I may just have to upgrade my audio equipment just for this). Besides the brilliant film itself, the purchase price of this disc is worth it just for the TWO documentaries included, plus the ongoing commentary by Roger Waters (who seems to lose it in some sections, but regains himself) and animation director Gerald Scarfe. A casual fan such as myself greatly benefits from the behind-the-scenes and history; it'll make sense after this! A must-have for any music fan.
Rating: Summary: It had been a long, long time...... Review: It had been a long, long time since I watched this movie (at least from beginning to end). It brought back so many memories, good and bad, of growing up, listening to music, especially music like this that formed so many of my opinions on life (gee, thanks Roger).The whole "Hey You" and "Goodbye Blue Sky" sequences are brilliant, filling me with buried emotions. As did "Vera/Bring the Boys Back Home", which in my opinion is the pentacle of Roger Waters power as a songwriter (that's my opinion). I also love the scene where young "Pink" takes bullets of his father's and places them on the railroad tracks. There are several tidbits of goodies here, as well. For instance, did anybody else out there catch "Pink" reading poems that were actually lyrics found later in "The Final Cut" and "The Pros and Cons..."? Or, does anybody else actually know who Vera Lynn is? I do. I actually researched it in high school (very sad). Finally, I rented this movie on numerous occasions just to hear "When the Tigers Broke Free" and the longer, better version of "Empty Spaces" (both songs are written in the sheet music book "The Wall" that I have). "Tigers" is such a good song, wow. I hope this will review will at least let other Pink Floyd fans, old and new, know they aren't the only ones out there who need to get a life.
Rating: Summary: WOW ! Review: When the Wall album came out(yes im that old) I wentthru 2 double albums,1 8 Track tape and two cassettes.I loved that album.I still remember the first time I saw the movie.I rented it right when it came out on video.And whenit was over I sat there almost numb(Comfertably)and I could only say, WOW! What a masterpiece of a movie.For so long not really knowing what the songs meant.Then having them played out on screen.It is awsome, The animationis one of a kind great.The story line is perfect to every song. And Bob Geldofis Fantastic as Pink.If you have only heard a few of the songs or wore them out like me.You need to see or purchase the new Re-Releaseof The Wall.Now its affordable, Back then they wanted 80 dollars to purchase it.Its a steal at todays prices. P.S. if you have not heard Pink FloydsThe Final Cut,Do it.It could have easily been the third addition to the Double Wall album.
Rating: Summary: This is AWESOME!~* Review: Hey! The first time I saw this video was when I was only 12 years old....and I loved it then! It's so great, Pink Floyd is the greatest band ever! It's unusual and strange, but it's very unique....I recommend buying it for anyone!
Rating: Summary: excellent pice of film art.... Review: Brilliant insight into the dark,maddening life of a supposed rock star slipping his grip on reality.Dark and haunting with extremely good use of the soundtrack.Hell,see it just for the beautiful,incredibly constructed animation.Disney doesnt come close to this quality.
Rating: Summary: Far better than the album Review: What can I say? The coolest musical pieces from The Wall weren't even on the album... like the intro to "Young Lust," where he does the 'Shall we buy a new guitar? Shall we drive a more powerful car?' routine... these are great musical moments that were never before available on a CD-quality format. Now it's on DVD. It's better than owning the album. Even the mellowed-down version of "Mother" is cooler. But if you're reading this, you're probably already familiar with this movie. The DVD edition of it has lots of cool stuff though. If you are a potential VHS customer, I would recommend you buy yourself a DVD player just on the merit of this movie alone. You won't regret it! Buy it today! Way Cool!
Rating: Summary: amazing Review: This movie is something strange and amazing, when i`ve watched it, i was knocked out. The first impression was: My God! How, Why! Lot of feelings, i couldn`t arrange them, after second watching i understood some of his actions, but not all. I think everyone will find something in this movie, as person looking at first, or at thousand time.
Rating: Summary: my new favorite movie! Review: i am an avid Pink Floyd fan and i own the cd of The Wall. i have seen the movie before when i was like 12 but now that i am older (16) i can apreciate how well this movie was produced and the quality of the music and animation. i would recomend that before you buy this movie that you listen to the cd about a thousand times and get books that tell about the meaning behind ALL Pink Floyd songs. there is a lot of nudidty and violence so it is a great movie. please e-mail me if you would like more information about Pink Floyd music mikekramer@tbcnet.com
