Movie Reviews of Rush in Rio
Movie Review: Overrated
Summary: 2 Stars
I am not sure where folks are coming from when they deem this a great video concert. I have seen Rush in concert 5 times and this does not measure up. Not only does it not measure up but there are several DVD's released by Rush that are better than this one such as R30 or Exit Stage Left.
The audio quality on this DVD is not very good for a concert released in this day and age. On top of that, I find that the set list leaves alot to be desired although admitedley, I am a fan of the earlier rush days pre-dating Grace Under Pressure. Surely, many will disagree with me but for me, I don't find that this was even worth my money. I do recommed R30 or Exit Stage Left though. None of the DVD's released by Rush exceed the performances that I saw from the band in the late 1970's though.
Rock On,
DJ Craig
Summary of Rush in Rio
No Description Available.Genre: Music Video - Pop/Rock
Rating: NR
Release Date: 7-NOV-2006
Media Type: DVD
Taped in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on the final night of Rush's 2002 Vapor Trails tour, this double-disc set finds Canada's famous power trio giving its all for 40,000 of the most rabid Rush fans ever gathered under one sky. Sure, the guys are all pushing 50. Bassist-vocalist Geddy Lee strains to hit some high notes, and guitar wizard Alex Lifeson occasionally sounds a tad bored. But by and large they remain at or near the peak of their powerful game--and, from the looks of it, they're having more fun than ever. Drawing from 15 of their 17 studio albums and leaning heavily on Vapor Trails, they celebrate their stylistic range (progressive-leaning classic rock to dense but melodic post-grunge) and the far broader scope of drummer Neil Peart's considered lyrics.
The concert alone pushes three hours, and disc 2 offers a lengthy documentary and multi-angle options for three songs. The Dolby Digital 5.1 or 2.0 sound quality is generally good, if overly compressed. Peart's drums sound fabulous, in fact: splashy and tight and far more natural than they've sounded on any Rush album, live or otherwise, in years. Not to be missed--and needlessly hard to find--is a 1975 promotional clip for Fly by Night's "Anthem." This set is a must, even for the doubtful. --Michael Mikesell
