Movie Reviews of Louis Armstrong - Satchmo

Movie Review: Louis Armstrong - Satchmo DVD
Summary: 4 Stars

If you really like Louis Armstrong, I advise you to watch this title.

This title is not to show Louis' concert but to show Louis' whole life. This is a kind of a documentary.

It was a great joy for me to see Louis Armstrong in his childhood. Besides, I was much happier to hear his clear voice in his childhood.

Although the quality of the pictures and the sound is not good enough, I highly recommend you to watch this title if you really like Louis Armstron.

Movie Review: Disappointed
Summary: 2 Stars

I strongly disagree with the other reviews. While the DVD is a good documentary of Louis Armstrong's life, it only has "imbedded" songs, and the menus (indexes) are not set up to go to the songs, so you have to search for them. Unless you enjoy watching the documentary over and over, this is not the way to enjoy his music. I wish I could view the songs without having to shift though a bunch of commentary. I wanted to watch him perform "What a Wonderful World", but it only had about a thirty second clip of that song, and there were no views of Satchmo performing that song . . . it only had a video of people showing their respect at Satchmo funeral. There really was only a couple songs showing Satchmo singing the entire song. Really disappointing throughtout.
