Movie Reviews of The Grateful Dead Movie

Movie Review: Grateful Head Movie
Summary: 5 Stars

Deuter: try the soundtrack for the tunes cut short by the movie..five discs have all the movie stuff plus all the extra's.

The movie itself is awesome. I've been waiting for years...my Laserdisc version holding me over until this fabulous release. The remaster with the improved sound is excellent and the extra stuff is a great bonus. David Lemieux (dead archivist) promises that they'll be more to come from this set of historic '74 Winterland "farewell" shows.

P.S., the Dead wanted to document the ENTIRE Dead Head concert experience so all the audience coverage was deemed necessary as it aint a show without the Heads!

Movie Review: US Blues
Summary: 5 Stars

There are a couple of good reviews on Amazon about this DVD already, so I'm going to try to keep this short. First off, this is a great DVD (both of them). The footage is terrific- showing many aspects of a Dead concert.
But this DVD is more than just conert footage. By the end the viewer can almost feel the temperature of the place, the work and hours that went into building the stage, long hours on the road, and the flat out soul the Dead brought to the fans... and vice versa.
I would suggest watching this DVD, the reading Mr. Lesh's book and then watching this again.

Movie Review: Just so amazingly good!!! Get it - you'll be glad you did.
Summary: 5 Stars

I cannot express in words how awesome this dvd set is. They did an excellent job with it in every way. The sound will blow you away, especially if you have a 5.1 system (you don't need it, there is a regular stereo sound option too) but the surround sound is insane.

The extras are all top notch - stuff you actually want to watch. I have to say that this is probably the best music DVD purchase I have ever made - the content, the packaging the little booklet - it's all of the highest quality. Very highly recommended!

Movie Review: very cool - Fans must have it!
Summary: 5 Stars

my man, Norman, turned me on to the Dead. we have this movie and it is sooooo cool! if you are a fan, you must have it!

Jerry produced this and made it, hired cameramen etc. and did it. shows back stage stuff, set up, the concerts, the hippies and fans in the crowd. experience a Dead concert - watch this movie - 'cause you sure can't go see the Dead in concert like this anymore. (Jerry is gone, sniff)

a real cool experience - for sure. Dead-heads - buy it. curious? buy it.

Movie Review: !!! IF ITS NOT A BABY, THEN YOUR'E NOT PREGNANT !!!
Summary: 5 Stars

This is the only footage available from the BEST era of the Dead. Although the performances aren't always the best, Jerry seems downright confused and/or timid during China Cat...proban=blt trippin'!, there are plenty of great moments musically. The new SOUND is weel done and invigorating, especially in Surround Sound. The DVD has 1 1/2 hours of new concert footage. A true classic and a must own for those interested in the band.
