Follow the group across America, exploring new influences, playing with the legendary B.B. King, on a journey which takes them from Dublin to Graceland, from San Francisco to the streets of Harlem, from The Joshua Tree to Rattle And Hum.

Great movie
I hadn’t seen this since watching it at the theater when it was released. Brought back great memories of past days and is still as enjoyable as it was originally.

The best U2 movie of her best era
This is the single movie I watch most in my life. I have the honor, as a 12 year kid, to watch in the theater. I've never heard of the band at that time but the poster said the "greatest band in the world" and, as the comedy we went to watch had no more ticket, we risked to watch Rattle & Hum. It was a defining moment in my life. I instantaneously fell in love by Bono vigorous performance in the opening “Helter Skelter” and was in awe when the film suddenly turned in full color with that red panel lighting up. Well that’s many memorable moments to count but rest assure some of the performances surpass the ones in disc (I could mention “Running To Stand Still” and “Sunday Bloody Sunday” as two of those). The voice of Bono is at its best, Edge and the other are as good as ever and all is in full high def blu-ray glory (even though the director sometimes uses a granulated kind o film to shoot, mainly in the interviews parts. It’s the best U2 performances of his best album/tour. I would recommend this for anyone, even those not familiar with U2’s work.

Great band, great film, BUT...
...this disc does not work on any DVD player known to mankind. Where did the seller get it? What is it's format?In will not work in [a] pre-Blue Ray, or Blu-Ray players on my television. Neither will it work on my PC's disc drive supported by a popular paid DVD app.UNREADABLE and therefore useless. A dust collector.

Inspiring live performances and commentary by U2
This Blu-ray is filled with passionate performances and good rock from superstars U2. Most of it is filmed in black and white for special effects, but it is none the less interesting and moving. It goes back to the 80's right after the Joshua Tree CD and gives a glimpse of what U2 was about back then. Bono provides a moving explanation of what Sunday Bloody Sunday is about that you may not find elsewhere if you are a U2 fan. There is a strong deep bass track through the performances which sounds good on my subwoofer. At a couple of points I could hear the bass amp speakers go into distortion close to blowing a speaker and also some bass feedback distortion like Jimi Hendrix, although I think this was unintentional for the song and accidentally made its way into a highly revealing master audio soundtrack. Since it has dialog interspersed with the music, I don't listen to it as much as if it were a pure live performance, but it is a good insight to U2 as a band and as individuals and it is worth it for that.

When they were the best..
The U2: Rattle and Hum DVD is a great time machine back to the '80s when U2 had it all. The documentary/stage performance combo gives a great insight into what made them such a great band and fueled their present mark on the music industry. Now they are much older men, their music is still off the edge.. but in 1986, the charisma came across on that stage. Bono gave everything then.. and now he seems so much more reserved. I liked the Bono of Rattle and Hum. He has evolved, but his earlier performances were true charisma.I know that at this time we can not time travel, but this DVD is the next best thing to it. Pop it in the DVD player or instantly download it, set some pure uninterrupted viewing time aside and hit the play button. The trip is well worth the time.

Love this Group! Love this Movie!
Despite what everyone says, this move is just fine! The picture quality is the same (or better) as the original motion picture release (back before HD, 1080P, and 4K). The sound is AWESOME! This movie holds a special memory for me, as I was THERE for the concert at Sun Devil Stadium, Tempe Arizona! I was all the way back, and to the left, of the mixing booth.. but man! What a night! Awesome concert!

U2's musical journeys in America
Rattle and Hum came on the heels of the Joshua Tree tour and followed the band on its self-described "musical journey" through America. Most of the footage is in grainy black and white for the documentary segments, and finer detail for the concert excerpts. Some songs are in colour but they don't arrive until later in the film.The reason for this has something to do with the mood of the song as felt by the band. "With or Without You" and "Where The Streets Have No Name" are in colour showing the tour delivering what the fans want, while songs like "Pride" and "Silver and Gold" give another slant on the performance. There are some really great onstage camera panning moments, placing you right with the band instead of just in front of them.The video image is anamorphic (1.85:1) and is a mixed bag because of the combination grainy documentary segments to the higher quality concert scenes.The sound mix also varies. I found "Where the Streets..." had the bass level too quiet for my liking but it picked up in different songs.The extras are limited to one movie trailer, a bit disappointing. If you are a U2 fan then this title should find a place in your collection right now.

Prodotto usato ma perfetto
Ero dubbioso nell'acquisire un Bluray usato, ma ho ricevuto un prodotto ottimo che inserito nel mio lettore, è stato letto perfettamente senza nessun tipo di problemi. La qualità artistica di Rattle and Hum degli U2, non ha bisogno di recensioni perchè è ormai nel mito.
