Wow! Such a good movie.
Did you people see the same film I saw?
While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
View MoreGreat example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
View MoreLive from The Zenith in Paris, British rock band Muse perform brilliantly in-front of a packed arena. Songs are from their first two albums, Showbiz and Origin Of Symmetry.Critically acclaimed for their live performances, Muse do not disappoint here. Some almost insane displays and technically brilliant music from all three guys, this is definitely worth buying if you are a Muse fan or a fan of rock music. They are without doubt the best British rock band of the last 6 or so years, and one of the best live bands in the history of music. They are my favourite band, and are technically far superior to their contemporaries, such as Franz Ferdinand, Kasabian or Kaiser Cheifs.Overall, a great DVD, disc 2 is nothing to rave about though, a couple of neat little features, but nothing special.If you like this, then you will love the Absolution tour, it has some newer songs, and give a better (which is very hard to do) performance than on here, a definite recommendation.
View MoreQuite simply, Muse are one of England's top rock acts of the last decade and with their new album, Absolution, out now and going stellar, they show no signs of slowing down. Most people who know about Muse already know of this DVD/VHS release and should own it already. It is a top performance by one of the best live bands ever (as agreed by fans and music journalists alike). People outside of Europe (except a few certain places like Japan) will not know much of these songs and the band unless they have acquired Muse imports (for example, Absolution, which was released after this performance, is the only official American release). Needless to say, if you don't like Muse, or don't know who they are, then this is not for you, but for fans of Muse or of music in general, this is a must purchase. The actual recording of the performance is top notch, and the DVD boasts a great sound quality. The songs are work of art and come mainly from Muse's first two studio albums and b-sides.
