Masterful Movie

an ambitious but ultimately ineffective debut endeavor.

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

I was at the Phoenix. I did not realize that one of the 2 concerts (the other being Seattle Washington) was the one I attended until I heard J. David Holmes talking about "concert Psyching rock" He was a DJ for 98 KUPD at that time. The DVD is one of Ozzy's best. Not only does it include his best songs, but the original members of Black Sabbath came on stage and played a couple of songs. This makes the DVD really worth buying. It was unbelievable in person. For all those who were unable to attend the show, the Live and Loud DVD will let you see what you missed. you will not be sorry. It was an amazing show and an amazing DVD.

This concert film is a total waste of money. It's not even a concert! It's just clips of about 100 Ozzy concerts mixed together to create a piece of junk. Most of the movie is seeing drunk fans and Ozzy's outfit change in every scene he's in (due to a mixture of concert footage). Technically were not seeing Ozzy actually performing the songs. It would also be cool if we got to see the band members like Zakk Wylde for more than a half second at a time. At one point in the movie we see color swirls and the drummers foot and closeup of his face flashing in the same shot. The whole movie made me sick to my stomach. I give it 2 stars because the sound and songs are excellent but if I wanted the sound I would have bought the C.D. Terrible. Rent or buy Ozzy: Live At Budokan if you want a full live Ozzy concert experience.
