Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

This year, Rush are 40, and a new DVD will be out soon - R40, but not yet, so we look back at R30 - when Rush were 30 years old and were great and perfect to the top. Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson and Neil Peart do a tremendous show of all their imaginable Best Of material, starting with an excellent cartoon video, then going through the Medley of their earlier songs and then plunging headlong onto mesmerizing Spirit Of Radio. Each song is a highlight, and I especially recommend Neil's outstanding Drum Solo, which itself is a Suite of several parts and never drags or bores. Even later songs like Earthshine stand out well in comparison with earlier output and they prove that Rush's music will stand the test of time well. Geddy's impossible virtuosity sends me shivers every time I see him playing bass guitar, singing and operating his multiple pedals at the same time. A;ex is as usual cheerful and mighty, while Neil nails it down to make a perfect Trio of all times. 10 out of 10

These guys are excellent and anything they put out to the public is first class. The musicianship of this band is amazing and we should all be very thankful we live in a world where Rush exists. Future generations will never be able to see such mastery live and in person. Get this DVD and you will enjoy it throughly!! I was recently able to see these incredible musicians play in Houston, TX and was blown away. I have not missed a show since power windows and I have to say that they are better than ever. Everyone should embrace these guys and teach others what real musicianship is! There will never be such a tight and well put together trio again in our lifetime. Lets just hope and pray that they do not retire anytime soon!

I never thought much about Rush before seeing the R30 Concert, except for the fact that Neil Peart was a god. However, after watching this blistering performance, which hooks you in like nothing else with its 13 some-odd minute musical jam session which starts it all, I understand why these guys are cultural icons. My only complaint is the unnecessary use of Jerry Stiller (Frank Costanza) at the beginning and end of the performance on the wide screen. I'm sure the Germans were rather indifferent to it, as would anyone would be. But holy crepes, this band is tight as hell. Geddy Lee is flawless in voice and kick-butt bass playing. Alex Lifeson still rocks with sonic ingenuity. And Neil Peart - I can watch just him for the entire show without anything else as he is simply perfect and the best drummer in rock history. Highly recommended to Rush lovers and naysayers alike.

R30 captures some great performances and a whole lot of energy. It is recorded in hi-def and with great sound quality. Standout performances are found throughout the concert, but especially on Subdivisions, Red Barchetta, Earthshine, Xanadu, and Between The Wheels.Go out and get it if you are a fan from their 80's-era, or if you're new to the band and learned about them from their more recent releases.The recording focuses more on capturing the great light show as well as showcasing clear sound quality. Geddy's voice is front and center (unlike the recent "Rush In Rio" DVD) and the audience-level is rather subdued.R30 is a "10" !
