This review is from: Sleeping Dogs Lie (DVD)

it runs only 29 mins. it does have special features that seemed to be longer. alot of kissing ed asners ass by everyone. which was probably due. Maynard displays his superior interviewee and socialization abilities. the only music i remember hearing in it is a song off 13th step. I'd buy it again but I'd like to pay about 10 bucks tops for it including shipping. it is only 29 mins.

This review is from: Sleeping Dogs Lie (DVD)

A huge fan of both Brad Wilk and Maynard James Keenan, I had to buy this. Great short movie. A question of memory- where do Our words go after We say them? The director of photography is wonderful.

You will say 'no way' at the end!

Watch the bonus footage.

This review is from: Sleeping Dogs Lie (DVD)

Do you love Maynard James Keenan and Brad Wilk? Do you want to see them in a great movie? Well, maybe someday, but not today. This short, 29 minute film is mediocre on the surface; I fell asleep during it several times, which is a feat for only a 29 minute movie.

In other words, DON'T BUY THIS DVD FOR THE FILM!!

The value of this DVD is in the bloopers and interviews - more than an hour's worth of extras. The interviews are priceless, especially for fellow Maynard lovers - I have never seen him as natural and easy-going as he is in the interviews. He is hilarious in the movie, but is even funnier in the interviews and bloopers! This is a very intelligent, quick witted guy that you don't always get to see in the Tool or A Perfect Circle concerts; he is up close and personal - well worth the price of the DVD. I have over 40 live concerts on DVD from Tool and A Perfect Circle, and I've never seen him anything like he is in the film or the interviews.

One final note, don't expect to get this DVD right away. I had to wait several weeks for mine to come, and I consider myself lucky for that. I had tried to purchase it from the main SDL website, and waited for two months before I had to file a dispute with PayPal (and still didn't get all my money back). If you want it right away, you might want to check on ebay, but only one person sells them on there, so they are pretty rare. I definitely wouldn't recommend buying from anywhere else other than Amazon or ebay - you'll never get anything.

Bottom Line: If you love Maynard, then this is probably the most natural you'll ever see him (you do know he ALWAYS shaves his head, right? He wears a wig for most concerts). Since Maynard is still hiding himself at the 2006 concerts, this is probably the last chance you'll ever get to see him well (unless you get some older concerts on DVD or something). Not a great film, but the true value is in the extras; if you don't mind a wait of possibly months, then this is well worth the price for Maynard lovers.
