DVD Reviews of Hamburger America

DVD Review: Had to run out for a burger
Summary: 5 Stars

Awesome video. If you're a foodie, you'll love it. I didn't do my research before purchasing this video. I thought it was about the best burgers in America. Rather, it's about some very unique burger emporiums. I've already been to two of the featured places and plan to eat a burger at each of the burger institutions included.

DVD Review: Only 8 burger joints?!
Summary: 4 Stars

While this tantalizing DVD did make my mouthwater (minus the butter burger and goober burger) I have to wonder why only 8 places in the entire UNITED STATES were interviewed. I bought this because I bought "Sandwiches That You Will Like" -which is awesome, by the way! This was recommended from my purchase of that DVD. It was good, just lacking I suppose. Only a four because I want more beef!!

DVD Review: WHERE'S THE BEEF?
Summary: 5 Stars

Great documentary! This is one of those documentaries that'll make you want to drive across country just to get a burger at one of these joints.

There was one burger, the goober burger (Sedalia, MO): "NO way...absolutely no way will I ever eat one of those," I said. Thrity minutes later my husband place one of his beautiful hamburgers before me and said, "EAT." I ate my first goober burger and, 'IT WAS MOIST AND VERY GOOD." He didn't use too much peanut butter, just enough, and it was very good. It's really a pleasure being married to a man who is, although not professionally, a great baker and cook: I don't need to go anywhere, except our kitchen table, to enjoy great food!

HOWEVER, it would be nice to vist that place in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and that place in Texas, and that place in ....etc., etc., and etc. This DVD could turn out being very expensive!

DVD Review: True Love Affair
Summary: 5 Stars

Hamburger America is a true foodie's love affair. I first encountered the film in Santa Fe, NM so I was able to eat at the inimitable "Bobcat Bite" whose green chile (they spell it with a "e" out there) burgers are as phenomenal as the decor of the place is simple. You won't strictly need the sides due to the size of the burger, but the cole slaw is fabulous.

Now that I live in Connecticut, I am soon due a pilgrimage to Louis's Lunch in New Haven and a side trip to try the steamed hamburgers in Meriden. There is nothing like a fine hamburger -- nothing! "Hamburger America" is a wonderful paean to the best burgers out there; there are so many others that deserve to be included, so do give us a sequel.

DVD Review: People, Food and Life
Summary: 5 Stars

A film that chronicles people, their lives and passions, just as much as it chronicles burgers. The title is fitting, as one becomes familiar with different regions of America offering different renditions of an American Classic, the Hamburger.
