That was an excellent one.

Really Surprised!

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

For better 'world music' try Afro-Celt.I would not recommend this to anyone. The best parts were the commercials. (I watched this on Crackle.)One line summary: If you enjoy lens flare and smoke, you'll love this.Two stars of five.----Setup-----The film consists of concert footage interwoven with documentary interviews.The camera-work on the concert footage is truly poor. The sound recording and playback is rather good, but the visuals are amateurish in comparison.Perhaps most unfortunate about this uninspired effort is that the interviews (beautifully shot, but impoverished in content) seem to have less than nothing to do with the concert footage.I have recently watched and reviewed Metallica: Through the Never, Rush: Beyond the Lighted Stage, and Muscle Shoals. Compared to those majestic accomplishments, this film is amateurishly directed, visually ugly, and musically listless.----Scores-----Cinematography: 0/10 If you enjoy lens flare and smoke, you'll love this. The film is beyond belief ugly. The multiple overlay method fails badly; the background videos seem irrelevant.Sound: 10/10 Just fine. That is why I gave the film 2/5 instead of a (first ever) 0/5.Acting: z/10 Supposedly not applicable here, but some numbers were clearly lip-synced, and done so quite poorly.Screenplay: 2/10 Documentary clips: relentlessly boring, incomplete, and self-important. Concert footage: musicians were competent, but poorly presented visually. Fusion: complete failure. With eyes closed, the film is a bit better.

I bought the DVD the minute it was released and let me be the first to say WOW!!! The video captures the band and the music. The sound is excellent. Thievery corporation is just a monumental group of individuals that really come together and justify their music and their righteous politics. Great choice of songs and nice mix of backstage footage. Nice to see a band that chooses to sing about the world and the way life should be. Songs include: Mandala, Lebanese Blond, Until The Morning, Shadow of Ourselves, Liberation Front, Originality, Radio Retaliation, The Numbers Game, Illumination, La Femme Parallel, 33 Degrees, All That We Perceive, Hare Krisna, Exilio, Vampires, Sweet Tides, The Richest Man in Babylon, Assault on Babylon and Warning Shots.Beautiful sounding DVD. Nicely done. Only a 9 out of 10 cause it should be 16 hours long! Loved it! Tommy D from Boston!
