The Magic of Flight (Large Format)

Summary: My worst DVD.....
Review: This is the worst DVD I ever seen, I was expecting a lot of action, since I saw the trailer in an IMAX theater, but those 3 minutes of the trailer are the only 3 minutes that are worth in the hole presentation. Is boring, and the images of the blue angles are for about 5 minutes of show only. Trust me, you are going to be very, very dissapointed with this DVD.

Summary: Ive never seen a reaction like it...
Review: This is used in a home theatre lounge at a retail outlet and used on a L.C.D projector. Certain chapters through the movie will draw crowds from all directions and leave them GOB-SMACKED and Dizzy for the next couple of hrs..I mean this disc is that good!...Im just so thrilled with my purchase, the sound is available in DTS and picture quality phenominal...Im constantly fighting off customers who want to purchase the my copy of the disc then and there.

Summary: Good flight Scenes, boring narrative
Review: Tom Seleck narrats this film and he is way to dry! You look at the box and think you are getting a whole bunch of flight scenes when you are lucky if you get 10 minutes. Too much time talking on how flight was developed. Thats OK if that is what you are looking for.

Summary: Great Experience
Review: Wow! Widescreen TV is a viewing bonus. The photography on this DVD is amazing. Angles from IMAX cameras mounted on the Blue Angels planes as they fly. You see just how close to each other these people fly. Watch the main feature; then watch the "making of"; then watch the main feature again with a whole new perspective.

Unfortunately, even with a widescreen TV, it's not the same experience as being in an IMAX theater with a 60' screen -- you don't get the feeling of being in the pilot's seat, like you do at IMAX. But a great experience nonetheless.

The other great thing from this IMAX film is the pilots truly convey their joy of flying. Blue Angels, stunt pilots & pilots taking off / landing on aircraft carriers; you can feel their passion for what they do.
