DVD Reviews of Hedwig and the Angry Inch (New Line Platinum Series)

DVD Review: Transsexuals Love to Rock!!!
Summary: 4 Stars

I thought this was a pretty good movie! Hedwig had an awesome singing voice and looked extremely sexy dressed as a girl. Throughout the film, Hedwig tells us his/her life story starting from East Berlin, to getting a sex change so he/she can get married and go to America, loving a teenager named Tommy Speck / Tommy Gnosis, who steals Hedwig's songs. Hedwig follows Tommy around to give him a lawsuit. If you love rock musicals, and transsexuals, you'll love HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH!!!

DVD Review: TOP TEN ALL TIME
Summary: 5 Stars

I know that may seem like a lofty statement but I love this movie. Better than the Rocky Horror Picture Show by a mile and I have seen that about 100 times in the theaters with live actors. This movie played for quite some time as a live stage performance as well and in blew me away. The sound track stands up on it's own and the performances of the characters in the movie is wonderful. Pick it up, you won't be disappointed.

DVD Review: Hedwig is ten years old and still rocking!
Summary: 5 Stars

One of the best rock musicals ever produced! Hedwig's still got it after all these years: this film version, starring and directed by and its co-author John Cameron Mitchell, is as relevant, funny and poignant today as when it was first presented off broadway in 1998. This is a sublime work of art, not to be missed.

DVD Review: wonderful, and beautiful.
Summary: 5 Stars

I've read some reviews where people just didn't understand, and I can understand some of that. It's a story about a world far from our own, and that's why i think it's so amazing. Hedwig is an amazing person, and I found this movie hysterical and touching.

If you are one for indie, documentary-like films then you should see this! The music is amazing, and 'midnight radio' is now a top fav of mine. I think this movie is loved by a select crowd, but still should been seen by everyone.
However I don't think I'd watch this with my parents, lol. Some parts of the movie are odd, nothing wrong with the scenes...just culturally odd. :/
for example, the gummy bear scene. Yet I still loved every minute of it.

Hope all of you will enjoy the movie :)

DVD Review: I just wanted to add my two cents....
Summary: 5 Stars

I was totally taken by surprise when watching this movie. A friend gave it to me about two years ago and I refused to watch it because I wasn't interested in another low budget gay movie about a drag queen. Well, I must say that I am rather sad that I waited so long to finally watch it. The reason I finally watched it is because I was wondering what other movies the fabulous Michael Pitt had done. Though Pitt does a fine job, it was John Cameron Mitchell that kept me glued to the screen. The songs were not only entertaining, but down right electrifying. The story itself was even different, which I loved. I have since found out that this was originally an off-Broadway play. I wish I had seen it. This movie was quite the surprise and I am glad I finally watched it. I will definitely watch it again.

Description of Hedwig and the Angry Inch (New Line Platinum Series)

This is the story of hedwig an ambitious glam-rocker who comes to america determined to find fame fortune and his other half. Studio: New Line Home Video Release Date: 06/03/2003 Run time: 91 minutes Rating: R

Sometimes grace and hope come in surprising packages. The title character of Hedwig and the Angry Inch, a would-be glam-rock star from East Germany, undergoes a botched gender-change operation in order to escape from the Soviet bloc, only to watch the Berlin Wall come down on TV after being abandoned in a trailer park in middle America. Hedwig gets involved with Tommy, an adolescent boy who steals her songs and becomes a stadium-filling musical act. Suffering from a broken heart and a lust for revenge, Hedwig follows Tommy's tour, playing with her band (the Angry Inch) at tacky theme restaurants. Into this simple storyline, writer-director-star John Cameron Mitchell packs an astonishing mix of sadness, yearning, humor, and kick-ass songs with a little Platonic philosophy tucked inside for good measure. A visually dazzling gem of a movie. --Bret Fetzer
