Summary: Not all it could have been
Review: While NIN fans should really get this, I was dissapointed when I found out it didn't include any of the Fragile official videos, only the concert footage. The only produced video it contains is in a secret menu and it's a video that Trent never wanted tho public to see cuz its bad, how ironic that the only video from Fragile is the one so bad Trent never published it?!
The audio and camera work is superb, when you watch this you are getting pure quality, by no means was their concert taped with home camcorders.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Nothing Beats Live
Review: I bought this dvd because my boyfriend has never seen NIN live, and the last time i saw them was in 1994 (the "Downward Spiral" tour). It's good, but not _that_ good. I really wanted to see the special effects of the screen coming down during "Hurt," like it was in 1994, but I guess he stopped doing that bit... He didn't even do the "smashing the keyboard" bit he usually does.

On the up side, the description is very accurate- it is exactly what was described in the listing, but I was disappointed, none the less. It really is a bunch of home movies, which, for me, takes away from the experience because it's not like being there (not that a dvd could reproduce that, but still...)

I thought there was more focus on the crowd than the band, and I can see those people any day of the week on the bus. I wanted to see the band, not the fans!

Overall, I must emphasize that the description provided is accurate, but nowhere near a microsom of the real thing.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Surround 5.1 sound at its best!
Review: I agree with the other reviewers who are more interested in the actual music content and quality--versus those who seem to find it important to have personality and emotional content in a MUSIC concert (?!?). This DVD seriously rocks and was worthy of our Bose Surround system; it was like we were there and had the best seats in the house!

Note of caution: This DVD needs a good sound system otherwise the sound can distort... and your neighbors will probably complain.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Without words...
Review: Bar none, this is the most beautiful, amazing, and mezmorizing concert video i have ever seen. why it has only 4 stars bewilders me! never before have i seen such an amazing thing...check it out, its worth it! NIN 4ever!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good DVD, but kinda boring
Review: This DVD is a great thing to watch, but after you watch it once, you probably won't watch it again. Its nothing special. There is no backstage footage or anything, and personally, I think thats how it should be. The CD companion to this is a much better buy. If you are one of those people who love NIN more then any other band, this may be great for you, but as someone who is just a basic fan could wait on this and buy other things that may be of some importance.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: this is by far one of the best concert movies ive ever seen
Review: And by that i mean picture and audio quality wise. The kbps is so high that the preformace clips (taken from various stops of the fragilty 2000 tour) had to go on two discs.

And thats the only bad thing abou this DVD, is that it does span two discs, which is bad for the flow of the concert. But thats not to terribly bad. So only one star reduction.

Did i mention that its loud? well it is.

Whats cool about this DVD are the bonus materials. With over a hundread(i think, it took me more than ten minutes to get through them all) photos, and a couple of bonus clips (ones that are on the cd version but not the VHS and one other BIG surprise. whats not to like about this DVD? nothing.

This is a good DVD, but it ould be made that much better if the band had interacted a bit more with the audience. Just some a little talk with them would have been cool.

Overall. 4 stars

Pros:
Excellent Picture and Audio Quality
Excellent Bonus materials

Cons:
No audience interaction
2 disc concert

those cons aint bad. Any nin fan should already have this, but if you dont, you'll love it. Its like reliving the Fragility 2000 tour.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Glimpse Into the Future of DVD
Review: Ok, granted there are a lot of songs performed on this DVD, but many of you still may be wondering why any single concert could possibly take up 2 DVDs. The answer is simply that this is one of the highest quality DVDs you will ever find. Picture quality is amazing and will hold up even on large screens. Sound quality is amazing, and was specificaly worked with to accurately simulate a real concert experience. Hear every nuance of the music as the crowd cheers beind you in a wonderful demonstration of the way surround sound should be used. If you've been to a Nine Inch Nails concert, you will be pleased with how accurately the experience is replicated. If you're a fan but have never been to one of their shows, this DVD is an absolute must. But even if you're only a casual fan, the DVD is worth seeing just to truly realize what DVD is capable of doing. You will not be disappointed. A side note- there are two versions of this DVD, one in DTS surround and one in Dolby Digital. The DTS sounds a bit better, but does not have the multiple angle capabilities which are available on some songs in the Dolby version. Most people will probably not be able to hear the difference, but then again most people probably won't bother with the angles more than once either, so it's really a judgement call. In any case, Enjoy

Summary: sound is great - but the actual concert is stupid
Review: buy the cd - forget about the video - it is pretty stupid - I am a big nin fan - but - this dvd is ridiculous

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The must have for those unlucky few that missed NIN live
Review: This DVD definitely captures the essence of what it was like to be at the show. It brought back my memory of the Dallas show, and I think that it was very cool to have a few hidden items in the DVD (if you are a NIN fan, you know what I am referring to; for those who don't, well I guess you'll just have to buy it to find out, won't you?)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: WOW !!!!
Review: For a long time NIN fan who has never seen them in concert this DVD becomes the next best thing. The song selection is great, the sound is unbelievable (DTS!), and the show is just amazing. The best DTS concert available imo... get it now!
