1.0 out of 5 stars Rhino ....You guys cut the best part out of the dvd, June 5, 2009

This review is from: Last Days of the Fillmore (DVD)

I was a little bit shocked that this version of the Documentary "Fillmore, the last days" isn't even the complete film.
Rhino what in the world possessed you guys to elminate the best performance in the movie? Was it money? It certianly wasn't due to a time constraint.. Did Boz Skaggs not want any involvement? I find it hard to understand that aspect as there where announcements regarding the release of this months ago on his website.. Why the sudden disappearce of his footage and involvment? The movie itself is just O.K. but when you take out argueably one of the better performances it doesn't make it any more attractive to purchase..There were so many better performances that week that got captured on audio, Only the visuals are lacking.. (where is "Brother can you spare a dime" w/t Tower of Power horns" ... damn what a shame... Rhino.. I guess this probabley is the main reason this release was held up and pushed back..Money , Money , Money, not art.
Also this would have been the perfect type of release that would have cried out for extra bonus footage and important talking heads going on and on about the Fillmore and what it meant to them..Oh well another missed opportunity..I hope Rhinos other ventures into films and their preservation at least have the sense to realize that a film is a piece of art no matter how big or small and deserves to be seen as the director intended..Not cut for time or money concerns..put it out like it was meant to be seen..truly dreadful Rhino..
indeed..

1.0 out of 5 stars Not The Real Thing, June 4, 2009

This review is from: Last Days of the Fillmore (DVD)

This is not the movie that was in the theaters. This is much shorter and leaves out great bands and substitutes the best parts with filler. Save your money or be prepared to be disappointed.

4.0 out of 5 stars What's left, May 27, 2009

This review is from: Last Days of the Fillmore (DVD)

I've waited for so long for this to be released but there are some major disappointments in what is missing. No Stoneground, no Sons Of Champlin, great songs replaced by jams. Went to all the last shows but one and this does capture the closing of the Fillmore West (not to be confused with The Fillmore) in a somewhat clinical maner. No matter what you do, there is really no way to fully cature any event. I remember being somewhat disappointed when this movie originally came out. It's still a good movie, just not as good as it could have been.
