Summary: If I had my way, I'd have all of you shot
Review: I love "The Wall," both movie and album. The story is very close me, so maybe I'm a bit biased. I've heard people say you'd have to be stoned in order to watch it. I disagree, I understood it perfectly. "Tommy" on the other hand...now there was a movie you'd probably have to be stoned in order to enjoy! I give it 4 stars only because the album version of "Mother" was better. Plus, the movie doens't have "Hey You." (It was filmed, but was cut out of the movie. See it on the DVD and know why).

Summary: good but not worth it
Review: the only good thing about this movie is that it has pink floyd music in it. pink floyd is one of the greatest rock bands of all time, no doubt, but this movie is sort-of lame. if you want to waste your money, get this, but otherwise rent it and then decide whether or not u should buy it.

Summary: The Album Comes To Video..
Review: Or Shall I Say to Film. I definitely would not recommend this movie to anyone who has never listened to the wonderful music of Pink Floyd. For those of you who thought that this movie would contain anything but music, you must be either totally brain dead or totally out of the main stream. But this was a great movie, it does help in understanding the album a little better. If one were to read the lyrics and pay attention as to what "the wall" may mean, then the movie would probably make more sense to you. Sometimes you have to do a little bit of research to enjoy things. Everything is not just going to be handed to you. That is the beauty of Pink Floyd, they want you to think about what things mean. In ending,a little fact that people might not know is that Roger Waters had almost total control in making the album and film. P.S. the animation sequences are very interesting and vivid and ejoyable even though most of them are violent. The rest of the movie has great visuals as well, but you probably won't appreciate them as much if you haven't listened to the album.

Summary: The Final Cut
Review: Most clearly put, this movie is a spellbinding artistic masterpiece. It will evoke every possible emotion and leave you wanting more of even those that are "negative". Roger Waters knew when the album itself, a masterpiece all its own, was made that he wanted to eventually make an accompanying screenplay. The fact that the music of The Wall forms a story on its own is a testament to Waters' vision. There is very little script in this movie, it is more of a visual aide to the music itself, and allows us to see what Waters really wanted us to see when the album was originally released. It is like an art gallery more than a movie, where each scene is full of both powerful meaning and subtle expression. It spotlights the roller coaster ride of Pink's tumultuous life, who is reportedly based on several influences. From Roger Waters' own personal past, to his views on the influence of drugs on music and performance, to thoughts of the mentally unstable former member of Pink Floyd, Sid Barrett, this movie will both shock and move you. I honestly cannot describe this movie and give it the justice it deserves. You simply must see it. As for the DVD itself, the remastering is truly phenomenal. From start to finish the video is crisp, and the sound.. my god the sound. I dont know if I will ever find a movie which possesses equal richness of sound. This DVD uses both senses to their fullest potential. Some person commented that the widescreen format meant losing a portion of the picture. Au contraire, widescreen is the only picture where you capture everything through the eyes of the director's camera. It is the full screen format which loses the sides of the picture by stretching and trimming to a (roughly) 4:3 ratio. Unfortunately however, being only available in widescreen format on this DVD, those viewers with small televisions might be faced with a vertically short, albeit complete picture. The DVD extras and menus are incredible. This is the first DVD I have seen which has menus to configure your sound system for optimum performance (speaker position and test). And the sound.. did I mention the sound? This movie and DVD version deserves far more than 5 stars, and is the definitive "Final Cut" of Roger Waters' vision.

Summary: tear down this wall
Review: Inchoherent low budget farce of a movie that bombed so miserably, that it went to video within a week of its theatrical run. To nobody's suprise, it's based on an album by Pink Floyd. Zero stars.

Summary: Excellent adaptaion of Pink Floyd's classic
Review: The film version of Pink Floyd's The Wall was released in August of 1982. The movie did fairly well at the box office. It initially grossed $23 million which was alot of money back in 1982 and competing against films like E.T., Rocky III and the first Poltergeist. I first saw the movie when my father rented this movie for me when I was 9. It is still a great film even today. The screenplay was written by Roger Waters amd the film was directed by Alan Parker(Midnight Express, The Committments and Evita) and starred Boomtown Rats frontman Bob Geldof in the leading role as Pink. The movie tells the story of Pink, a rock star whom had a traumatic life. His father died in WWII, an overbearing mother, cruel sarcastic teachers, an unhappy marriage and a successful music career. One night after calling his wife and hearing she cheats on him, he invites a groupie into his hotel and loses it. The character was based on part-Waters, part-Keith Moon, part-Syd Barrett and part fascism. The film is noted for having the unreleased tracks When The Tigers Broke Free(parts 1 and 2), a new version of Mother, the studio version of What Shall We Do Now. Plus new versions of Another Brick in the Wall(part 3), Is There Anybody Out There?, Bring the Boys Back Home and Outside the Wall. Also, Bob Geldof does the vocals on both parts to In The Flesh. Gerald Scarfe's animations in this film are the same as the ones shown at the original Wall concerts Pink Floyd performed in 1980 and 1981. This DVD has bonuses of The Other Side of The Wall documentary as aired on MTV in 1982, the Another Brick video filmed to promote the album, the theatrical trailer and various other surprises. Highly recommended!

Summary: this is difficult
Review: First of all, when I saw it the first time I hated it. Probably because I hated the trial scene and it is really shocking. It was far too dark the first time through, and I have gradually grown attached to it. First though, there are some great scenes, like comfortably numb, hey you, blue skies, the happiest days of our lives and all three bricks. Those are spectatular. The flowers fooking though, that is a bit much. I am not really sure wheither the good scenes really redeem the film.
