pedrito r @RT87549390 Jun 19 Is simply one of the best concert movies i´ve ever seen See more 09/22/2019 One of the very greatest concert films of all time. See more james b @RT54975811 08/05/2015 I honestly never got why the kids were in this movie. I always thought the movie would have been better without the group of kids following the band. After listening to the additional audio tracks from the producer/director....it makes more sense now. It is a great concert DVD, and really captures a great moment in Depeche Mode's career. See more 01/22/2013 Caught most of this on TV. Solid doc. about these guys. Might pick it up sometime if I can find it on DVD somewhere. See more 01/09/2013 The teens on the journey to see Mode, are a little annoying; other than that, a great insight into one of the greatest (and largely underrated) bands ever, around one of their best albums. The Rose Bowl finale is jawdropping. See more 02/10/2012 Easy to watch tour video which shows they are not the out of control rockers you generally see in this genre of cinema.
