Movie Reviews of Korn: Live
Movie Review: Eh...
Summary: 3 Stars
Korn is a great band but it wasnt their best performance. They did a cool cover for One but they didn't play the whole song. Its not worth buying. buy their cds instead.Movie Review: Not a good show.
Summary: 2 Stars
Korn is one of the best live bands I've ever seen. I should know. I've seen them FIVE different times in concert. In 2002, on the eve of the release of "Untouchables", they played a sold out show at the Hammerstein ballroom in NYC. What followed was a band that obviously hadn't played a live show in some time.
Jonathan is overweight, out of shape, and seems (at that time) to be losing his hair. He has to hold onto his microphone stand half of the time. He has gotten into shape (and looks much better now), but in June of 2002 he looked as if he had one too many cheeseburgers.
The rest of the band plays pretty subdued compared to other performances I've seen. They have obvious difficulty on (then) new songs such as "Blame", "Embrace", and "Thoughtless". Jonathan's vocals, especially when he has to sing high notes, really suffer. I'm not trying to slam them or anything, but you can tell they needed to get some more touring under their belts to get the rust off. The opening "Here to Stay" is the highlight, with everyone hitting on all cylinders on that one.
The back of the case lists Metallica's "One" as er, one of the tracks (no pun intended). However, while they do perform the song, they only play about one minute of it (the fast "darkness, imprisoning me, all that I see...." part) as part of a melody with "Shoots and Ladders" and "Justin".
There is a 2nd disc, with a 10 minute or so feature on creating the lights/effects for the show. Apparently they almost didn't pull it off, and if you watch the show, there is one major production screwup: The curtain falls to reveal the band about 3 seconds too early.
There is also the option of watching the background videos that play behind the band during the concert as a standalone. It's a nice touch, but gets old real fast, unless you're planning on recreating the concert in your basement or something.
Overall, I applaud the effort and am glad it was released, but it just doesn't hold up to other performances. The "Live on the Other Side" DVD from 2006 (from the same venue) is miles better.
Movie Review: he can be better
Summary: 2 Stars
I think this DVD is not great because the sound [isn't very good]. The voice of Jonathan Davis [isn't very good] and not mixed great.The 5.1 sound is a joke and dont work propedly because the sound mixer of Korn is a newbie i think
But The song on this Dvd is so sweet, we can listen new tracks like here to stay and old track like falling away from me
But the worst thing on this DvD is the voice of j. Davis, this guy cant sing good on all songs.
The worst song on the Dvd is Thoughtless. All the musician [isn't very good] onb this track and the songs look like an imitation of the real by a no talented band.
But if you really like the band and dont know anything in music buy this DVD.
Movie Review: When Will This End?!
Summary: 2 Stars
I borrowed this DVD from my friend, who got held back in high school. As I went through it, I noticed something very strange and familiar. Most of Korn's fans are kids. Mostly kids buy their cd's. Jonathan Davis always sings about crap that happened to him when he was a kid. I then turned off the DVD when to go for a walk and ponder my maturity. I think Korn needs to grow up. I mean, they still put out good material, but they need a new quality to appeal to. I have their self-titled album as well as Follow The Leader. Why are two-discs necessary?!Movie Review: I love Korn, but this is not the band at thier best.
Summary: 2 Stars
I strongly reccomend not buying this DVD. The sound quality is pretty bad and they change camera positions way too fast. The only good thing about this show is that they played some of thier best songs but the concert itself is not very long. I have seen Korn live two times and on both occasions they sounded much better than they do on this DVD. Definately buy one of Korn's other films instead.
