Good , But It Is Overrated By Some

Disappointment for a huge fan!

Critics,are you kidding us

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Unbelievably nostalgic yet so fresh! Brilliant DVD, the music is fantastic as always, the sound quality, visuals and whole production amazing. For years I only knew what they looked like in the 90s and later. To see how they looked in the 70s is awesome. I used to feel ambivalent about some of their music, I loved some of it but not all. Having this DVD to play and replay made me realize just what great musicians they were and still are and I usually follow it with Pink Floyd at Live 8, when the four of them got back together again for the first time in years. Amazing to see the march of time in their faces, they're my generation so its not off putting or anything. In fact it just confirms what we've all known for so long, Pink Floyd are Timeless (and still very handsome! I'll always love you David! Sigh!)

This film is one of the most impressive music docs I've ever seen. I live in Iceland and we don't have much of rare DVD material like these old concepts albums, VHS or what-ever - reproduced and remade to DVD. But God bless the Internet - because with it's help - I could get a copy, legally of course - and this film is great to watch on a gigantic theater-mode tent I have in my garage (which I turned into an office - the kind you can go to and listen to music, play the guitars, read good books and use the Internet for great things). Then I put my feet up - comfortably numb I watch from the computer, through the home-theater network system, to a projector that shows with great quality on a big theater-tent as big as the garage-doors. And with 8 speakers - 2 at the front left and right - 200watts. Not very uncomfortable!-Oh... yeah.. the Live at Pompeii movie... It's the best! Everybody who want's to learn to listen to Pink Floyd or has learned but earns for more (P U L S E does not come out on DVD until next fall). -PINK FLOYD:LIVE AT POMPEII IS THE ONE TO SEE!Note: Scenes from volcanic eruption are filmed in Iceland and also you can see in some scenes the hot spring place called "Geysir" and "The Blue Lagoon" (a natural hot water filled with some great minerals, health mud or something like that, right in the middle of a lava-area)Both are places in Iceland whom no tourist misses.

Pink Floyd: Live at Pompeii is a true masterpiece with the excellent combination of adding the psychedelic features of Pompeii with some of Pink Floyd's greatest songs. Although it isn't as good as The Wall it's definitely a great movie to watch on a little of something if you know what i mean. Have a good time people I had a excellent time (wink wink). Chris Ferraro Your Friendly Neighborhood Commenter Thank You for your well deserved attention P.S. Pink Floyd is a respected band please do not laugh during the movie and just respect it for what it is. Ahh what am i saying have a good time its a psychedelic movie for a good time. Laugh!Laugh!Laugh!

This is what Pink Floyd were like before Dark Side of the Moon shattered their status as a cult band. By performing in such peculiar surroundings they showed they didn't care if this was a daring move - playing live with no public but an empty amphitheater build 2000 years before.The songs are greatly performed - the only flaws are the filming, that sometimes doesn't show what it should. Examples of that are One Of These Days and near the end of Echoes, part 1. However, the video is a must see and have for any true Floyd fan. The Mademoiselle Nobs bit with the dog singing to a blues melody is amusing, reminding us of the same device used in the track Seamus from the Meddle album.By the way, it is said there is one edition of this video featuring interviews and behind-the-scenes footage of the band in the studio, but unfortunately this is not the one I've got.Forget about the lame stuff the Roger-less Floyd have put out and sit down, relax and watch a great piece of music.10/10.
