DVD Reviews of 1 Giant Leap

DVD Review: 1 Giant Leap
Summary: 5 Stars

Excellent movie. Give it as gifts ever Xmas! Never get tired of watching it!

DVD Review: Never stop watching
Summary: 5 Stars

Very audacious project of the guys. Really nice idea traveling around the world collecting opinions, sounds, images and snapshots from the most distinct kind of cultures.
Apparently, they restricted a little bit by just interviewing people that speaks English. This could have imposed some limitations, but it is overall a "must-see". I watched it many many times and show to every friend to go to my home. Really, is very insightful and entertaining. If it was just the sound, it would be already very nice, therefore, I think the CD can be also another good option. Make sure you don't miss the Extras!

DVD Review: Feelings Confirmed
Summary: 5 Stars

I happened upon this DVD while surfing my cable network programs. All I can say is the movie put into words the feelings I've had for as long as I can remember about being connected as human beings. I always had a problem with " religions " and this movie just confirmed for me that it's not about being religious...it's about being spiritual. So, if you are not hung up on religion titles, then you will thoroughly enjoy this, and if you are then you need to see it so you can learn a thing or two about the world we live in and who we really are as people.. Besides that,the format of the DVD was an unexpected surprise!!

DVD Review: 1 Awesome DVD!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

I'm 55 years old but I believe I feel the pulse of what's hip/happening/current. I've been a musician all my life. What I believe is happening is that the self-created walls of imagined separetness are in the beginning stages of being dissolved and that's a very good thing as it invites the best of who we are to emerge after a rather long cacooning period. In this DVD you will see that emerging, an opening to our unity as a people on a tiny, beautiful planet spinning through space. We have some much to share with each other in expressing our basic goodness as seen in this DVD. For those of you "who think I'm a dreamer, I'm not the only one and some day you'll join us and the world will live as one." We choose how to create our lives, now is the time to become responsible for what we have created and begin to create anew in light of what we have learned, namely, "greed" & "separateness" are no longer acceptable behavior like jumping on the couch as a kid. The wise and truly visionary need to simply say "no"---no more greed, no more hatred and intolerance, no more lives based on fear, no more harm to others nor the enviornment,etc.

This DVD helps us all to awaken to our innate unity and celebrate our differences, love one another, enjoy each day. Have hope...this DVD will help you feel that hope is real and alive, growing more and more, becoming more visible. Buy this DVD and share it with others. Enjoy!

DVD Review: Great music, pointless film
Summary: 3 Stars

Two young white guys went around the world and recorded lots of musical performances in India, Thailand, New Zealand and Africa. They put it all together and made some great music that might remind you a bit of Deep Forest or other such world beat projects.

That would have been enough.

But they decided to make a film. Which they didn't do as well. It seems that perhaps they had no particular agenda, that they went around talking to whoever would agree to an interview and then later in the editing process put pieces together that seem to fit a thematic whole. Much of it is just arm-chair philosophizing, and from perhaps not too astute philosophers such as former porn star Sharon Mitchell and actor Dennis Hopper. Authors Kurt Vonnegut and Tom Robbins and activist/business woman Anita Roddick make some pointed observations, but the rest could have been left on the cutting room floor.

If you have a choice, skip the DVD and buy the CD instead.

Description of 1 Giant Leap

1 Giant Leap is a collaborative dvd project for the 21st century, which fuses music, words, sounds, rhythms and images from over 25 locations in 20 countries around the globe to celebrate diversity of musicians, story-tellers, authors, filmmakers, artists, entrepreneurs, artists, and thinkers from many different cultures. 1 Giant Leap is a title, a philosophy, a leap of faith that sprung from the minds of visionary UK musicians/visual artists Jamie Catto (Faithless) and Duncan Bridgeman. It is the embodiment of the unity in human diversity and a cross-cultural exploration of universal truth that is a global journey unto itself. 1 Giant Leap features: Kurt Vonnegut, Dennis Hopper, Ram Dass, Tom Robbins, Anita Roddick, Brian Eno, Michael Stipe (REM), Robbie Williams, Neneh Cherry, Speech (Arrested Development), Stewart Copeland, Baaba Maal, and many more.
World music, world travel, and worldly wisdom form the unified whole of the ambitiously bohemian DVD 1 Giant Leap. Creators Duncan Bridgeman and Jamie Catto cast themselves as globetrotting ambassadors of goodwill and good music, and they prove better as musical explorers than as filmmakers. The result is a flowing, loose-knit tapestry of imagery, interviews, and diverse performances. Gathering material from 25 countries and dozens of famous and not-so-famous musicians, authors, celebrities, spiritualists, philosophers, and unique individuals from nearly every cultural background, this enveloping DVD is best enjoyed as a soothing audiovisual odyssey (select "loop mode" for continuous play!). Assembling this cornucopia by theme (Time, Inspiration, Sex, God, Death, etc.), Bridgeman and Catto function as co-composers with an astonishing array of collaborators, giving 1 Giant Leap its richly international (and some might say inter-spiritual) identity. The result is a far-reaching glimpse of our world through the eyes of those who improve it by their musical presence. --Jeff Shannon
