Review: I thought the mixing of an symphony orcestra and heavy metal rock was impossible to mix and make it sound good, boy was I wrong, this is one of the most amazing concerts (instrumentally)that I have ever seen. I really like their new song, No leaf clover, IT ROCKS !

Summary: A must
Review: Having been fans of both heavier classical music and heavy metal for over two decades, it was positively astounding for us to see those two worlds merge into one in this great video. We have always been partial to The Call of Ktulu, Master of Puppets and For Whom the Bell Tolls, but watching them performed here shed an entirely new light on the musical structure, for the first time bringing to light what those songs actually contain. And the new song, No Leaf Clover - well, you will just have to experience it for yourself. Lastly it must be said that Metallica, in our view, have never in their entire career performed as they do here. They have always been good, on quite a few occasions terriffic - but this, ladies and gentlemen, this has simply to be seen to be believed. A word of advice: please view this on a powerful surround system and a big, quality monitor. To reap the full benefits of this performance, we believe it to be absolutely essential.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: a lot of BANG for little bucks!
Review: Not a big Metallica fan I was intrigued by this release and bought the collection with the BONUS video...Well worth it! the behind the scenes bonus video is interesting to say the least and the concert video is stunning. Maybe working with the symphony takes a little of the thrash edge off these guys that has turned me off in the past, but regardless I found this POWERFUL and very enjoyable. Lets hope the DVD comes out soon.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: WHERE IS THE OTHER VIDEO?
Review: The second I saw This video at the music store I bought it. Then much to my suprise as I was at the mall the next week I saw the same S&M video with a bonus video attached of behind the scenes footage. So if you buy this video you will only get the concert tape, don't make the same mistake I did. Anyway the performance on the video is excellent. Metallica is in top form, as opposed to their usually sloppy live performance.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: S & M, just the thing!
Review: Symphony and Metallica together? well it's no joke! This is one of the greates combinations that i've ever heard/seen. This is a majestic show, living behind the pyro that Metallica uses, in a theater, with an orchestra in the back. The sound is great, the ilumination is awsome, It's a show where Metallica plays at their finnest. This is why they are considered the kings of metal. They were greately tunned, timed, and playing the right cords and riffs at the right moment. It's a must see show. Never have i seen something like that, I have seen them twice already, and this show makes the difference. The video is better than the CD, can't wait for the DVD.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: THE BEST CONCERT EVER!
Review: This is the best concert I have ever seen. I have seen metallica live and it blew me away, but this is just the ultimate. Who would have thought that the intensety of metallicas music would blend so well with the eloquent sanfrancisco symphony orchestra. Classics such as Master of Puppets and for whom the bell tolls are brought to new heights, they were made to be performed with a 100 strong orchestra. There are songs on this album that are so underrated. The outlaw torn is an epic song, so full of diversity and talent. One almost brought me to tears, it is so beautiful. If I had one complaint it is that there arent enough songs on the album. You could spend an hour talking about what songs should have gone on the album but in the end you'd just realise that you had named every single song metallica have ever written or covered. If you are a metallica fan, then you really should have this album already. But if you arent then this album will make you change your ways, a definete classic.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Must for the Metallica Fan
Review: This is probably one of the best videos of the year. It's Metallica at its finest. All of their songs that they sing sound a lot more powerful with the symphony. The behind the footage tape has lots of cool footage of the concert. Michael Kamen is simply a genious. This only proves one thing: Metallica will continue to rock.
