Summary: Black Sabbath - The Last supper
Review: What were they thinking , when they put an interview right in the middle of some the songs ! If that did not happen I would give this DVD a 5 star rating . The sound is a 5 star. I hope they come out with some more of the original member BLack Sabbath concerts recorded in 5.1 dolby digital .

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Could've...Should've been MUCH BETTER
Review: I agree with the fellow from the UK ...for DVD the annoyingly inserted interviews which CUT INTO SONGS could have been located in a special section of the DVD allowing uninterrupted concert action..this was the EASY transfer from video...not the technical wonder that "Cunning Stunts" is...Metallica understand what the fans want and DO NOT allow the record companies to take the CHEAP way out..unfortunately Sabbath seem to be in for the money grab and are either too stupid or don't care that their final tour is presented PROPERLY given the technology available..I still enjoy it...but wish someone who cared was in charge.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: annoying interviews
Review: Yes, the music was good... But in between each song is an interview. And some songs are only partial songs. Ozzy seems drunk throughout and seems obcessed with constantly screaming out the "F" word. It would have been nice if someone would have labeled the DVD with 'parental guidance suggested'. Ozzy, also moons the crowd to the guitarist's enjoyment. Also, the soundtrack must have been overdubbed, the songs don't always match Ozzy's lips. Maybe Epic could have made a toned down version or alerted the buyer to the obcenity on the DVD.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Sabbath Bloody Sabbath
Review: This is one hell of a show that walks you through the lives of Ozzie,Tony, Gezzer and Bill being on the road and the concerts are brilliant. You American and English fans can think yourselves lucky to see such a great Rock 'N' Roll band, (wish Sabbath would come to the land of OZ (Australia)). The humor between the band when talking of past experiences is first class. I recommend this DVD to any Black Sabbath fan. If there is one draw back its the interruptions of the songs when the band members talk of how the song came about. This small hiccup is eventually over looked when you seat back crank up the volume and drift off with with the Masters of Reality.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: LONG LIVE BLACK SABBATH !
Review: I am so surprised by this DVD which produced with latest technology on 5.1 surround and indeed it was a recent wonderful live concert. I envy those audiences who were able to buy the concert tickets for the fabulous days...... Is it really THE LAST SUPPER (last concert)? It is a tragedy for us to hear that ? Anyway this DVD's sound quality, picture quality are superb, I can prove that by using a high vision 16:9 TV as monitor to view this concert. In fact, would anyone be able to say never die, never being old? For the sake of reality, all members of 70's and 80's rock groups are having the ages of between 45 and 50 years. Thanks so much for Black Sabbath who emerged for this latest concert, we do love you ! Also thanks Sony Company who produced this fantastic music DVD with their super technology for the sound, I can hear the difference ! I hope the groups listed below who could come out for concerts with production of DVDs :- 1. AC/DC 2. DEEP PURPLE 3. GRAND FUNK 4. STEELY DAN 5. DIRE STRAITS 6. BAD COMPANY 7. PATTI SMITH GROUP 8. THE WHO. If you like rock music, buy this DVD !

Summary: Die Hard Fans Only!
Review: My first Sabbath album was purchased when I was in 2nd grade back in 1972. This video was an absolute must for any true Black Sabbath fan. I was very disappointed in the interuptions during the songs. The editor did a grave injustice to the band by mixing it this way. The line up of songs was a very good choice, showing us that they could still drive solid. Ozzy is in great form-His vocals were outstanding. My only wish is that he could have sang live years ago(70's). Geezer does not show his age at all as he belts out the bass. Bill has aged and weathered quite a bit but you could not notice this at all. His hard pounding drums will really test your home theatre system. Tony is my only disappointment. His sound has not changed since Ozzy was kicked out. No one can ever duplicate what Iommi can do on the axe, but in my opinion, he has not progressed his playing in the last 20 years. Ozzy, as everyfan will agree, he skyrocketted. However I think of the reunion, this is one rock video which is at the top of my list simply because I am a diehard fan who's dream has come true with an original Sabbath line up,as short lived as it was. You have to love Sabbath for who they were, not the mixing quality(?) behind this video. I gave this video a 2 stars for production quality but 5 stars because it's true Sabbath! PS-Iwould have gave it 6 stars if they would have filmed the Birmingham show. Where it all began back in '68

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Die-hard fans only
Review: I bought the VHS version of this back when it first came out. The sound is pretty good, but as I was jamming to the tunes, the music fades out and the band starts to talk! I was upset! They could have done this in between songs, as KISS did with Konfidential('93). After reading these reviews, I won't buy it on DVD.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Must have DVD for Sabbath fans? Probably.
Review: The real Black Sabbath together again! Doing some of their classic material. Good sound and video, decent DVD transfer.

Unexpected plus: It is wide-screen format instead of full screen.

Unexpected minus: There are points where songs are interupted or faded into the background while bandmembers talk about them. This is totally unnecessary, they could have easily kept the songs intact by making the video several minutes longer or by better using available DVD technology. This was annoying the first time and will be more so in repeat viewings. You may want to rent it first to see how much this might bother you.

What should and could have been a 5 star video. However, the producers failed to properly take repeat viewing into consideration.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: RULES
Review: Black Sabbath kicks A** thats enough, a must have for Sabbath fans!
