Rating: Summary: Unauthorized Review: 2002 Since forming in 1995, Los Angeles foursome System of a Down have built a massive following for their hybrid of explosive rap-matal, punk, funk and incendiary lyrics. Having cut their teeth supporting the likes of Slayer, Sepultura, Korn, Metallica and Kid Rock, they now habitually pack stadiums with their own headlining shows! System of a Down: Psycho Messiahs is the first-ever biographical film about this uniquely innovative band. With a running time in excess of 60 minutes, it uses extensive band interviews and in-depth discussions with those closest to them, to tell the complete & unauthorized story behind the music. This is NOT what you think your buying......
Rating: Summary: Rip off Review: At first I didn't realize that "unauthorized" meant that the director of the film did not have the legal right to play the music of the band or actually interview the band. I expected more than a narrated story of how the band met. I wanted footage of concerts and interviews. This is definitely not what I was looking for. I DO NOT RECOMMEND this video to anyone.
Rating: Summary: EVERYTHING you could EVER want to know about SOAD Review: First off, this DVD is what it says it is supposed to be, an Unauthorized Biography. NOT a music or concert DVD. It is PACKED with specific interesting information about the past of EVERYONE in the band.
Rating: Summary: bad news for buyers! Review: Having not seen this dvd yet, i can't really judge IT, but based on reviews i've read, this dvd is not what you expected. It's simply a biography on the band, not a live concert or anything, simply band footage and interviews...i'm a big SOAD fan, but frankly, i wouldn't waste my money on this, wait for something big to come out soon from the group...rumor has it that a recent live concert will be made into a dvd and released in time...be patient!
Rating: Summary: Great DVD Review: I AM SO PISSED OFF AT THIS! WHEN I BOUGHT IT, I THOUGHT IT WOULD ACTUALLY HAVE M O V I N G F O O T A G E OF THE BAND, INSTEAD ITS JUST SOME ENGLISH LADY WHO CANT EVEN PRONOUNCE THEIR NAME TALKING ABOUT THEIR UNDERGROUND CAREER BEFORE SYSTEM OF A DOWN THE ALBUM!!!! I NEARLY CRIED IN HATRED OF THE VIDEO HALFWAY THRU, I DIDNT EVEN FINISH THE PIECE OF SH**, THE VIDEO ITSELF WAS SCREWED UP TOO, THE ENTIRE VIDEO WAS IN AN ORANGE HUE, WITH LINES GOING UP AND DOWN THE SCREEN (THAT WERE NOT FROM THE TELEVISION) AND HAD GAY MUZAK PLAYING IN TH BACKGROUND(WHICH WAS ALSO SCREWED UP BECAUSE IT SOUNDED LIKE A LASER BEAM POWERING UP AND DOWN) I WANT MY F***ING MONEY BACK!!!

Rating: Summary: Terrible. Review: I love SOAD and was expecting a decent autobiographical story about them. This DVD doesn't include any music by them, any interviews with them, or any footage of them. You get a very basic history of how they got together. You would get more information and entertainment reading any of their fansites. This DVD isn't even for the hardest of hardcore System fans, it's for suckers.
Rating: Summary: Great DVD Review: I really liked this DVD, it contains a lot of material about System, although admittedly no original music. But still it was good to hear the story about them with loads of info and also interviews with the bans members and their friends. And on top of that there's interactive bit with a photo gallery, discography, etc. Buy it if you're a real SOAD fan!
Rating: Summary: I was very upset... Review: I thought that this would contain interviews with the band members, much like maybe KoRn's Who THen Now?. However, if something says "Unauthorized" don't buy it. I fast-forwarded through the whole thing waiting for a non-slide show interview only to be greeted by people I didn't know: Friends of the band. I was expecting SoaD and that's not what I got. Very saddened.
