2.0 out of 5 stars Quality is an issue, Dec 13 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I like the idea of seeing some girl bands which didn't necessarily make it high on the charts. Unfortunately the sound/video quality of the first few I watched was poor. Most likely recorded by an audience member. Save your money unless you are an absolute diehard fan.

2.0 out of 5 stars B grade, Aug 6 2012
This review is from: Implicated (DVD)
An interesting story line, but definitely a B-grade type show. As much as I wanted to bail part way thru, I ended up watching to the end. A hokey show, save your money.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bonanza Collection, Jan 10 2011
This review is from: Bonanza Collection (4 Pack) (DVD)
Please Amazon, take the time to list the titles in each collection volume, as well as the complete collection. Don't let your customers be disappointed because some manager is too lazy to have a staff member do the job right. List the titles. Thank-you

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, Jan 1 2009
Batman Begins was a phenomenal movie. Dark Knight was okay, but there was far too much unnecessary and implied 'disgusting' violence. It's unfortunate that directors feel the need for this type of extreme violence. Probably means their show wouldn't succeed without it. PG13 is certainly not an appropriate rating.

2.0 out of 5 stars Don't be fooled., Feb 5 2006
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
It's too bad Amazon didn't write their regular review for this DVD, then I would have known not to buy it. This DVD on Samantha Fox is NOT a concert and doesn't show any of her videos. It is merely a 50 minute documentary. The choice is yours.

3.0 out of 5 stars Loyal Crowded House fans..., April 11 2003
This review is from: Crowded House:Dreaming (DVD)
This DVD is for loyal Crowded House fans. Everyone else, stay away. The video quality on some of the tracks is like watching a 2nd generation VHS tape. If you enjoy their music and are curious to see their interesting, albeit non-elaborate video interpretations, then sit back and enjoy. Make sure you buy it on sale!

4.0 out of 5 stars Bringin' back those memories..., April 3 2003
What makes this concert special and memorable is that all the Beach Boy's were together. Three years later, there would be one less.

This was a 1980's concert filmed at Knebworth Park, Hertfordshire, England. As to be expected, concerts from 20 years ago aren't as elaborate and sophisticated as they are today, however it's still the Beach Boys, and they were great.

Being at the end of the baby boomer cycle and definitely a lover of the Beach Boys in the Seventies, watching this concert was a thrill. I found myself participating in the enthusiasm their songs generate.

If you liked the Beach Boys, buy this DVD. It's a great keepsake.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ultimate evening with Barbra, Mar 18 2003
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
An incredible timeline of Barbra's amazing career. Rather than just song after song, this performance offers both singing and small segments of theatrical entertainment and/or Barbra's dialogue between each performance, culminating with the bringing in of the New Millenium. Definitely worth owing.

1.0 out of 5 stars Beware, beware, beware, Mar 18 2003
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Cry (DVD Audio) (DVD Audio)
I made the mistake of thinking that a title listed under the DVD section was a traditional DVD. Unfortunately not. Where one would expect the playlist to be an assortment of videos and/or concert footage, it is simply a still picture. There are a couple of interviews, etc. with Faith, but nothing that I would want to pay $31 for.
