Rattle and Hum

I love this, one of my favorite music movies. Yeah, it's over the top but man, they just ooze talent.

Not one of my favorite movies but it is interesting and has excellent performance of U2 doing 'Bullet the Blue Sky' I have not watched it in awhile need to dig this out and watch it again sometime.

Just really good tight music. At their peak here.

I have the cd, good stuff.

It was one of the first cds I bought from Columbia House (that ol' buy so many for a penny or dollar or whatever it was) and it does have the most awesome version of Bullet To Blue Sky. I've always enjoyed the movie, as well.

I think they were a little less jaded at the time this was made. At least at the beginning of the tour. Bono and Edge get so much notice but they are a tight rhythm section.

Great stuff.

I bought it recently for cheap at Walmart. It's a good concert film.

great snapshot of a certain time and place

Good album and flick - my favorite line:

Bono: "Everybody's always asking me about the revolution - Smurf the bloody revolution!"

TZ, I saw it there for $5. Somehow it made me feel old.

Love this movie...

Rock and roll stops the traffic!

Love the film, but the black and white stuff grips me more than the colour bits do. The Rattle and Hum album version of I Still Haven't Found... is beautiful and so, so moving.


Saw them live a couple of nights ago in Melbourne... absolutely astounding show!

Oh, the 360 tour was AMAZING! I saw them in Oct 2009 in NC. U2 is easily one of my favorite bands of all time.

They come across as one of the most real bands live. Wonder where they stand now as far as attendance records for touring?
