4.0 out of 5 stars So the Hidden Levels Drive You NUTS..........., April 27, 2003

Before tossing this one in the trash, know that there is an easier way to access the extras. Delightful and funny documentary of a very decent bar band. Crowe's voice isn't Pavorotti, but it is passable, especially on songs meant to rock. Not cracked up with his balladeering, but there is an interesting rap type track of a little song called "Nowhere".

Now to those harder than hell to get to levels. DVDs like Texas have titles and chapters. Most DVD player remotes come with a display button. Hit the display button and navigate the titles starting with 1 then 2 and so forth through 20. It is a very easy way to get around this DVD without going through all those inane instructions. I really don't know who's idea the levels were, but they must have been in some sort of dream state.

1.0 out of 5 stars Watching this DVD will give you a full blown stress attack, February 8, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: 30 Odd Foot of Grunts - Texas (DVD)

I personally love Russell Crowe and 30 Odd Foot of Grunts. My excitment in receiving this DVD was soon a great disapointment. With the DVD come four pages of instructions on how to navigate throughout the DVD to see all of the features. Some of the insutructions were very detailed including looking for hidden codes in the credits section of the four page booklet. If you were unable to successfully navigate to a certain section, you were denied access. I did not spend almost $30.00 on a DVD where I have to work so hard to figure out how to watch the DVD. I am VERY disappointed with this product, and I urge others not to buy it. My husband and I screwed around with this ridiculous DVD for almost four hours and still could not access all of the features. The features are all encrypted and encoded, and a huge pain in the [rear]. Save your money. And Russell, please forgive me for slamming this piece of garbage.

5.0 out of 5 stars The TOFOG Experience Captured, January 15, 2003

I was fortunate enough to see TOFOG in concert in 2001. This DVD truly captures the concert experience, except for standing 5 hours+ in the Austin heat. TOFOG is a great live band, and the dedication,musicianship, as well as geniune friendship these men have for each other really comes through. I appreciated the fact that the band did not attempt to make Russell Crowe seem perfect and let him be seen in an honest light. People new to TOFOG will also enjoy the Australian videos included. They illustrate the difference in norms between our cultures. It is $.. well spent.
