A concert movie on an unprecedented scale. Rattle And Hum captures U2 – on and off the stage – during their triumphant Joshua Tree tour. From the giant Technicolor stadium celebrations to the black-and-white intensity of the indoor shows, this is U2 at their best. Follow the group across America, exploring new influences, playing with the legendary B.B. King, on a journey which takes them from Dublin to Graceland, from San Francisco to the streets of Harlem, from The Joshua Tree to Rattle And Hum.

Summary: Brilliant! The cinematography amplified U2's sheer rock music power
Comment: Quite simply, this DVD was incredible in capturing U2's passionate concert performances and intense songs. The DVD showcases U2's "musical journey" - taking epic scenes from various concert tours they performed throughout the US. The film provided an intimate setting and, for the most part, filmed in black and white, amplified the essence of rock (-n-roll) music.
I went to one of their concerts several years ago. I paid $60 to sit at a nose-bleeder seat so high up in the arena that Bono was as big a my thumb! So, to finally have this DVD, I now can actually see them perform "live" to my favorite songs...priceless!

Summary: Rattle & Rock!
Comment: This was a great documentary. It has some great band interviews, live performances, behind the scenes footage and a few celebrity guests like B.B. King. Even though the Joshua Tree songs were mixed in with the live blues album, Rattle & Hum, that was recorded while the band was on tour, it's a great video. Bono owns the stage when he's performing. The camera work was excellent as it really gives you a front-row seat to an intimate U2 performance. I highly recommend this DVD.

Summary: Still haven't found... all I want is you...
Comment: I can't fricken believe it. One of the most famous moments of this concert isn't on the stupid DVD! In the day, MTV played the living daylights out of ALL I WANT IS YOU. The famed video shows Bono (I believe) roaming the stage with a big spotlight, and when the Edge does this simple but powerful lick, the entire stage explodes with light. It's AMAZING... and for some stupid reason... omitted from this disc. Well, the song is there, but they ROLL CREDITS instead of SHOW THE PERFORMANCE!!!
This is the MTV historical equivalent of playing credits during Michael Jackson's THRILLER instead of including the video on his video hits collection. Are you kidding?!? And seeing how some diehard U2 fans seem to dislike this film, why not add in needed bonuses.
Stupid, stupid, stupid.
