Movie Reviews of Rush in Rio
Movie Review: Video Good - Sound Bad
Summary: 3 Stars
I have been a Rush fan since the 70's and have been to several of their concerts.
Pros:
1. The filming of this video was done great. Not too jumpy.
2. The crowd is REALLY into it.
3. Very wide selection of songs.
4. Alex and Neil are on fire! They hit every note every Song.
5. It's Rush! One of the most talented 3 man groups ever.
Cons:
1. Geddy cannot hit those high notes anymore.
2. The mixing of the audio sux. I cannot speak for the 5.1 option, but playing it in stero mode on a $15K system is disappointing. I can put in Alice in Chains - MTV Unplugged [Region 2] and tell a WORLD of difference in the quality of the audio.
Seeing Rush in their later years is cool, but not having quality audio to go with it ruins the whole experience.

Movie Review: Bad sound, to be endured rather than enjoyed
Summary: 2 Stars
I've never been a Rush fan, but always felt I could be one. Never owned a Rush album, but heard all the radio cuts, and had seen one awesome, high-energy performance piece on VH1. I bought this DVD on impulse figuring I'd be in for a treat.
There was excellent musicianship, good energy from the band and crowd, good camera work. But, the sound was BAD. And, that's bad, since we are talking about MUSIC.
Ugh. The audio was muddy, and Geddy Lee's vocals were buried so deep I could not have followed them at all if I had not know words to a third of the songs. It did improve slightly as the concert progressed, but not satisfactorily, as at least one other reviewer, here, stated.
I'm surprised the DVD got released in this state.
Movie Review: Audio Ruined It
Summary: 2 Stars
This could have been a fantastic piece of work for Rush fans. Great quality video and good song selection by the band. However, whoever mixed the sound should lose their job or be shot, maybe both. Garbled muddy sound made this unwatchable to this Rush fan. I recommend R30 instead. Don't waste your money on this.Movie Review: Rush from Rio Dissapointment
Summary: 1 Stars
Do not buy from these people. I repeat do not buy from these people.
Buyer beware.
My copy of Rush in Rio will not play on USA region dvd
players.
I have sent two emails to these people to either exchange
it for a copy that plays on USA region dvd players or I want to return it.
There is no phone number that I have found to contact these people.
They have not returned my emails.
