DVD Reviews of The Beatles CelebrationDVD Review: Mostly A Downer, But With Some Redeeming Moments Summary: 3 StarsGeoffrey Guiliano is a very boring person to listen to. He talks with such monotony that I almost fell asleep. There is no music in this DVD at all. But there are some interesting interviews.
Frederick Seamen, a friend of John Lennon, was interviewed for this DVD. There are interviews with Alan Williams, Pete Best, as well as with John, Paul and George. There is information here that is not in the Anthology, which I like. More importantly, there is an interview with the Maharishi, which is something I haven't seen in any other documentaries.
Interviews aside, there is little value here. Just a boring Beatles "expert" talking about the Beatles. A casual fan would not want this. An extremely dedicated fan will be interested in the interviews on this DVD.
DVD Review: absolutely daft Summary: 1 StarsBoring, tiring, not good video quality and if it wasn't for the few rare "home-taken" postBeatles pictures i would throw it away..
If you're a fan and really into the mania or want to have every single thing about The Beatles, then it's fine, otherwise don't spent your money in this.!
Oh and for a Beatle-related film, there's an awful little stuff abour Ringo!!!
DVD Review: A new perspective on the Beatles Summary: 4 StarsThis is an interesting perspective on the Beatles story using some interviews that I had never heard before.
DVD Review: Don't Expect the Best... Summary: 3 StarsHowever you can sure expect PETE BEST. This DVD is just OK. The interviews and video clips are good, but the narrator is annoying and just plain WEIRD. It would have been nice if they had video of them in concert or something, but I guess you get what you pay for. Don't expect another Beatle's Anthology.
DVD Review: Don't Bother Summary: 1 Stars
Amazon needs to create a negative star rating for some items.
When you have a built-in market that will buy anything
about a subject like the Beatles it's hard to lose.
But this does in a big way.
It's sort of like a PowerPoint presentation of random Beatles-related things.
A voice over including snippets of what may be the Beatles' voices rambles on as
you see a slide show of such fascinating items as receipts, pages out of books
and magazine photos, taped to a wall. At least they could have varied the fades
from one picture to the other, or cropped out the tape holding the picture to a board when they shot it.
It's very mechanical and soul-less.
Basically this would have to improve to be bad.
Description of The Beatles CelebrationHere at last is the ultimate visual and cultural history of the Beatles. Packed with dozens of never before seen film clips, ultra rare photographs and exclusive interviews, John, Paul, George and Ringo come alive in this intelligent, compelling, inside glimpse into the impenetrable inner-circle of the greatest musical group ever.
