2.0 out of 5 stars Drums of Thunder, October 6, 2005
This review is from: Taiko Drums of Thunder (DVD)
The DVD is poorly shot. The sound is ok but it look like a home movie, shakey, people walking in front of the camera,most of the footage was shot with one camera.

1.0 out of 5 stars Almost a home movie, September 6, 2006
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Taiko Drums of Thunder (DVD)
The following comments are not about the very talented drummers who are making the music. It is the production that is the problem. I had not expected a commercial DVD to be shot in such a manner that:

-- there would be people walking between the camera and stage or talking loudly enough so that (at times) private conversation was picked up by the microphone.

--Most of the shooting appears to be shot from a single point of view.

-- There are no indications of who the groups are.

-- Some of the groups shots start with the group already playing.

-- The lead in the the disk shows a group playing but there is no sound.

Only a couple of times does the camera jiggle so that it is obviously being poorly hand held.

I would put the techincal aspects of this production at the mid to high end home movie range. The drummers are indeed good, but not up the the "world's best" as advertised.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not really "the World's Best", March 31, 2006
By 
This review is from: Taiko Drums of Thunder (DVD)
Bought this DVD expecting to see some of the "World's Best" taiko groups, but then watched it and realized it was just a free community concert of amateur taiko groups at Nisei Week in Los Angeles. I asked my friend about it, who's in one of the groups on the DVD, and she said she had no idea they were videotaped or put onto a DVD. That's messed up
