Summary: Iron Maiden at the Pinnacle of their career!
Review: The video and audio quality on this DVD is incredible! Any die-hard Maiden fan that has stuck with them through all of the changes throughout the years will be blown away by the choice of songs. What's great is that if you are a hard-core Dickinson fan and not keen to Blaze Bayley's sound you get to hear Dickinson sing on 2 of Bayley's songs "Sign of the Cross" and "The Clansman" which have become 2 of my favorite of all time. The guitars, with the addition of Janick Gers, is incredible. 3 lead guitarists rippin' off blazing solos is a sight to see and hear. You'll want to watch it over and over again!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: very good, but something is missing
Review: Tons of songs, excellent picture. Although one sidenote, you may want to put this through a stereo or surround sound, because when you dont, to me is sounds harder to hear bruce sing, maybe this is my dvd though, because my brother said he played it on his DVD and didnt have the same problem (of course he did put it through a stereo). Anyway, that is not my complaint, my only complaint is maybe a silly one, is with the band itself. Call it eighties withdrawl if you will (who knows) but i dont like their new image. Liked bruce with long hair, and I think they have lost some of their stage presence. Which is unbderstandable, they are not 20 anymore. I remember them in their prime, with the pyrotechnics, multiple eddie props on stage, bruce bouncing around like and idiot, it was wild. Still, this is a very good DVD. Buy it

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: GREATEST SHOW
Review: This is a great DVD!!! great songs in special of New Brave World album. The sound and video quality is really good. Maybe the edition of scenes is too fast and Adrain's solos needed more camera attention. But the real important thing is that Iron Maiden is more live than ever. They just love the music, what a 3 guitars, steve"simply great", Nicko is the heart's band and Bruce is the best heavy metal singer ever. Without Bruce IM is not the real IM. Great songs and also the second disc(interwies,etc) is very cool. Buy this DVD. Up the Irons.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: POWERFUL
Review: Very good concert DVD. Showcases Iron Maidens' triple guitars, driving bass and percussion, and Dickinson's vocals. Excellent picture and sound.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: I was there...
Review: This is the better DVD I have, the song is great and the film is wonderful! For me it's not 5 stars because some musics (like Fear of the Dark) were edited!
I was there in Rock in Rio (I'm from São Paulo - Brazil) and the live show was at least 98979 stars!!! :-)
Sorry for my bad english!

Summary: This sucks
Review: Make the nightmare that is iron maiden go away. Get your asses off the stage. There is a time to quit.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Mixing Issues
Review: This would be a great DVD, but the mixing left the vocals clouded. The crowd noise and the instruments leave the vocals barely audible. If this was done intentially, then maybe they shouldnt have put this product out. I love Maiden, but this DVD is getting returned for a full refund.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: This Is A Must
Review: Rock In Rio is an excellent representation of how Iron Maiden still know how to pull it off. The sound quality and video is the best live production they've put out to date. The only complaints I have is unless you have 5.1 surround you lose out on some of the sonic production... My other small complaint is that I wish there were more classic tracks. I know Maiden have put out plently of live videos with all of the classics, but never with this quality. All-in-all, Maiden live up to their dedication to their fans and have put out yet another must-buy. Die-hard fans should also get their hands on "Eddie's Archives"...this should have been put out years ago...it is amazing!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Blimey, my head hurts!
Review: Cheers on a great DVD!
My head hurts from head-banging and playing this DVD at very high volume.
My head also hurts from the dizzying camera changes.
I know they filmed this w/18 cameras but they didn't have to use all of them within the context of four minute songs.
The editing was enough to give me a headache.
Camera was never focused for more than a second or two on any particular angle which made for an unpleasent viewing experience at times.
Just when the guitar solo would start we'd get a nice 2 second shot of Nikko, then 2 seconds of Bruce, then 2 seconds of Steve and, oh yeah, 2 seconds of the bloke actually playing the solo!
Steve Harris, stick to playing/writing music because I didn't care much for your editing, mate.
I love the band and enjoyed the song selection, though.
I think "Brave New World" was a great release and enjoyed seeing many of these songs performed on the DVD.
All-in-all I loved it!
Up the irons!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: great sound and picture - horrible editing
Review: I think Steve Harris has a.d.d. This DVD has about 200 cuts a song. In the first song, "Wicker Man" first they show Dickson singing, then the fans. Then Nicko then back to Dickinson then to Harris then over to Gerrs, then back to the fans, back to Harris, then back to Dickinson who jumps off part of the stage, then right in the middle of the jump back to Nicko, then the fans in all of fifteen seconds, during "Brave New World" Gerrs is doing a solo yet the camera is all over the place BUT NOT ON HIM!!!. Also the sound is great however I think Dickinson was TOO SPOT-ON with his vocals. The band should be ashamed to release this. I tried to watch this twice and I got a headache both times. Then there's the fact that it's a two disc set and the second disc is truly worthless it's "Rock in Rio" not "Talk in Rio" Also the packaging of this set is basically a piece of cardboard which could scratch both discs. I though maiden cared about their fans but I guess they don't, this set shows maiden is just trying to milk money from their fans with really a really bad product.
