Summary: Supreme!
Review: The most intelligent and inspiring band of the 1990s. And their high octain live act makes Korn and co. look like an episode of the "Love boat."

Summary: Is there any doubt?
Review: There is certainly no doubt in my mind that this DVD will be another great addition to the Rage Against the Machine Concert bank. Although it follows almost the same playlist as The Battle of Mexico City it has some new tracks, and I'm sure that it will blow us away with the band's unmatched energy and devotion they put into their songs. I already pre-ordered it, and I hope you do the same as well!

Summary: Strong Performances = Great DVD
Review: This DVD captures Rage's final concert performance in 2000. The event was laid down on film, not video, so it's got a professional vs. a made-for-Canadian-TV look. Unfortunately, however, the editing includes too many cut shots with effects (slo-mo, drop-frame, etc) that takes away from the overall package. I would have preferred a straight-forward, almost documentary style for a performance this strong - there's no need to hype it up like a music video. The straightforward look is on display for the bonus material of the performance outside 2000's Democratic National Convention in LA; plus, this may be an even better musical performance than the Canadian show. Both performance are as tight and energetic as you'd expect. They both also highlight the contrast between the heavy rock of Tom Morello, Tim Commerford and Brad Wilk vs. the hip-hop lyricism and delivery of Zach de la Rocha. I don't believe that any of them will ever equal Rage while working on their individual side projects (i.e. the valium pill that was Audioslave). One constant irritation was that both shows would have benefitted from unplugging the mic in front of Commerford - stick to the bass, my man. Also, the obvious opportunity for an unforgettable audience participation moment during "Killing in the Name" went surprisingly flat - come on, don't you people know the words? Overall, a pair of great performance packaged together at a super-cheap price. Highly recommended for the Rage completist or anyone interested in seeing what they're all about. Finally, the liner notes contain contact information for a number of political action groups that they support - no matter what you think of their politics, you've got to admire that they've apparently done their homework and are challenging the listener to do the same.

Summary: if you are not a HUGE fan of RATM - DONT buy it
Review: This DVD features just a mere concert.. not a powerful/awesome/groundbreaking perfomance by "the best rock band in the f***ing universe" RATM. So the concert in LA is the weakest part of this DVD. But it contains some cool bonus features that a RATM fan would like to see.

Summary: Thanks Tom!
Review: This DVD is great. Superb sound as well. The concert outside of the Democratic National Convention is worth the purchase price alone. What great footage of an awesome, high-energy concert. Just watching Tom Morello on stage gives me chills. He is incredible. Forget De La Rocha's stage presence...what about Tom's! He's the man, and he's the reason why you should buy this dvd.

Summary: Rick Rubin does it again
Review: This is one of the greatest live bands to ever hit the stage for those of us who were lucky enough to see them live this is a great reminder of how powerful the band is live. Anyone who says that this is a poorly mixed show is off their rocker! Rick Rubin the mastermind behind the sound, pulled off an incredible job smoothly making the bass rumble, the drums pop, guitars whine, and Zach's voice thunder in a wonderful symphony of sound. If you ever had the opportunity to see Rage or are just a fan this is a must.

Summary: Much Better Than Battle Of Mexico City
Review: This performance (RATM's Last) covers the band in full force. From the early rants of Bulls On Parade to the fists in the air at the end of Freedom, Rage once again proves to be one of the most revolutionary bands out there. Covering songs from all three of their albums, it also includes three tracks from Renegades including How I Could Just Kill A Man with Cypress Hill and others. The camera angles in this DVD are much more spectacular than Mexico City, although the sound quality is about the same.
I was disappointed with the performance coverage of the DNC protest. I thought the camera angles would be better from that, and the sound is much worse than the Olympic Auditorium show. But you get an awesome bunch of concert clips of theirs while How I Could Just Kill A Man play, as well as an old musicvideo of Bombtrack.
Overall, this is a must have DVD, much better than Mexico City. If you are a true Rage fan, then you have to get this. You won't regret it!

Summary: L.A. Rage
Review: When I watched this DVD I felt like I was there. Even though I have never been to a RATM concert, after watching this I felt like I have.
The reason I did not give it a five was because of all the wierd colors and editing that went on. Sometimes it would have black and white then fuzy color edits, but other then that I would recomend this DVD for any RATM fan and a fan of live shows.
