At first I didn't realize that "unauthorized" meant that the director of the film did not have the legal right to play the music of the band or actually interview the band. I expected more than a narrated story of how the band met. I wanted footage of concerts and interviews. This is definitely not what I was looking for. I DO NOT RECOMMEND this video to anyone.

I thought that this would contain interviews with the band members, much like maybe KoRn's Who THen Now?. However, if something says "Unauthorized" don't buy it. I fast-forwarded through the whole thing waiting for a non-slide show interview only to be greeted by people I didn't know: Friends of the band. I was expecting SoaD and that's not what I got. Very saddened.

If you are an EXTREME SYSTEM fan and you MUST own EVERYTHING that has the words "SYSTEM OF A DOWN" on it. . . then buy this just to add your collection. This isn't the greatest DVD ever, but it has some awesome pictures on it. This is the kind of thing you have playing on the TV (with it muted of course, system never once speaks , it's just some english lady who can't even pronounce their names) and just basically a background filler.
So to make a long story short if you are not a PYSCHO system fan, don't bother.

I AM SO PISSED OFF AT THIS! WHEN I BOUGHT IT, I THOUGHT IT WOULD ACTUALLY HAVE M O V I N G F O O T A G E OF THE BAND, INSTEAD ITS JUST SOME ENGLISH LADY WHO CANT EVEN PRONOUNCE THEIR NAME TALKING ABOUT THEIR UNDERGROUND CAREER BEFORE SYSTEM OF A DOWN THE ALBUM!!!! I NEARLY CRIED IN HATRED OF THE VIDEO HALFWAY THRU, I DIDNT EVEN FINISH THE PIECE OF SH**, THE VIDEO ITSELF WAS SCREWED UP TOO, THE ENTIRE VIDEO WAS IN AN ORANGE HUE, WITH LINES GOING UP AND DOWN THE SCREEN (THAT WERE NOT FROM THE TELEVISION) AND HAD GAY MUZAK PLAYING IN TH BACKGROUND(WHICH WAS ALSO SCREWED UP BECAUSE IT SOUNDED LIKE A LASER BEAM POWERING UP AND DOWN) I WANT MY F***ING MONEY BACK!!!

This is UNAUTHORISED and CONTAINS NO MUSIC by the band. Why are there DVD's like that???

This is absolutely the worst $25.99 I have EVER spent on something about one of my favorite bands. As one user stated, Don't buy it if it says "Unauthorized." There are no interviews with the band, No performances, and overall, it's just a ripoff. AVOID.

Please don't waste your money. This is the worst thing I have ever seen

Pretty good film on SOAD. No music from the band in this documentary, but plenty of interesting interviews and lots of great footage and stills of the band. Definitely of interest to real fans of the band!!

I thought this DVD like MTV i don't like this i did order twice time for music DVD what i never recive.
If i can i will like to sell back, pleace let me know if OK to sell back inclueing North West shotout DVD too.
Thanks You.

This was a sweet Dvd that was loaded with tons of info that not a lot of people would know but it had no interviews with the band themselves
