This 2-disc set offers an all-access pass to the tumultuous inner world of Metallica and includes over seven hours of special features, such as 40 "unreleased" scenes, two audio commentaries (by the band and by the filmmakers), highlights from film festivals and premieres (Sundance press conference with the band and Q & A with the filmmakers, Metallica's hometown premiere at the San Francisco Film Festival, New York premiere), intimate interviews with Metallica about the film, a music video and trailers. Paramount Home Entertainment is supporting the DVD release of METALLICA: SOME KIND OF MONSTER with consumer advertising on MTV, VH1, E! Comedy Central, Spike, CBS and UPN, as well as print ads in Rolling Stone, Blender, Alternative Press Magazine and Metal Edge. The film that The New York Times describes as "Entertaining, moving and historically significant" is an intensely intimate look at one of the biggest rock bands of all time. METALLICA: SOME KIND OF MONSTER takes you inside the studio and into the psyches of Metallica, as they record their Grammy-winning album St. Anger. Over the course of two and a half years, the band - James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich, Kirk Hammett, Robert Trujillo - battle their way through communication breakdowns, addictions, a band member's defection, fatherhood, domestic chaos and near-total disintegration during the most turbulent period of their 20-year history. "Trying to whittle down over 1600 hours of footage into a feature-length movie was an often heartbreaking task," said filmmakers Joe Berlinger & Bruce Sinofsky. "We are thrilled that as part of the extensive special features on this 2-disc set, we were able to resurrect some of our favorite scenes that were so difficult to leave on the cutting room floor." The DVD set of METALLICA: SOME KIND OF MONSTER is presented in full screen format (its original theatrical aspect ration of 4:3), it features Dolby Digital English 5.1 and Dolby English 2.0, English and Spanish sub-titles and it is closed-captioned for the hearing-impaired. METALLICA: SOME KIND OF MONSTER is priced around $20 in the U.S. and C$36.99 (S.R.P.) in Canada. The set is Not Rated in the U.S. by the Motion Picture Association of America and is rated 14A in Canada. It has a running time of approximately 140 minutes and is encoded with the Macrovision Anti-Copy process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Shmoe Posted January 15, 2005 Author Share Posted January 15, 2005 Yes, it should be really good. It recieved excellent reviews at the film festival also. I wanted to catch it when it played in the local theater but it was there such a short time, I didn't get the chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wheelman Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 I just went on amazon and preordered it instead, and then bought cd's. Needless to say I didn't save any money in the long run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Shmoe Posted January 19, 2005 Author Share Posted January 19, 2005 Metallica usually does it up right, so I look forward to this coming out. I have seen quite a few clips of the film, when they were on Jane Pauley & it definitely is more personal. My only wish is that there was a happier ending where Jason comes back into the band Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Shmoe Posted January 26, 2005 Author Share Posted January 26, 2005 Wow, very cool DVD. I would defintitely recommend this movie, if you are any kind of a music fan. As the DVD states "This is not a concert film, This is not behind the music.... this is something else". There are tons of cool clips on this DVD. Most of it revolves around the recording of their latest CD "St. Anger". You can check out vintage stuff with Cliff Burton jamming away on the bass & relive the terrible accident that claimed his life. Also get Jason Newsteads perspective on the band. In Jason's words the idea to meet with a Psychotherapist was .... lame (not the exact language there)He states Metallica is the biggest heavy metal band of all time, who made million & millions, been through everything & we can't get over this? The there's the meeting with Dave Mustaine. I swear I thought this guy was going to cry talking about the band kicking him out in 1983. He states it has been a dreadful experience & people hate him because of Metallica and he says he is constantly taunted over it. Lars his "little Danish friend" admits to feeling guilty, but there isn't closure because James wasn't there. This DVD shows you the personal side of the band. I guess I didn't expect watching a movie about a heavy metal band to see James & Lars hanging around with their kids? It's not a bad thing, but threw me off for a bit there. All in all I would say this is a great film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wheelman Posted January 27, 2005 Share Posted January 27, 2005 Good to hear you liked it. I was hoping it would be like you said. I am sure it's done well those producers/directors or whatever are killer on the documentarys. They did the one on the memphis three, and that was the first metallica let anyone use their music for a movie. Which was a documentary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wheelman Posted January 31, 2005 Share Posted January 31, 2005 Well I finially got it and viewed it. Excellent I would say. Much different than I thought. The way the directors made this movie it seems to me to have a deeper meaning. It's like therapy for all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corvzr1 Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 Well I am biased, but I will say that this was a good movie. The cool thing for me was looking at all of there equipment. Im a guitar junkie and some of this stuff made me drool. They have the best amps in the world. Mesa(i have one), Marshalls, Peavy 5150, Solondos, Fender, Vox, Deizel and a bunch of other ones. Well enough about equipment. Overall the movie was great if your a fan, and good if your in to documetories(spelling). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
