This is a great portrayal of what a good rock concert should be like. Full of energy, lots of good tunes, and filmed on 35mm film, it is truly inspiring. I wish all shows could be this good. Long live AC/DC!

This movie rocks, literally!
Simple, yet effective.
That is the best explanation for this video and the band themselves. The camera goes back and forth. It zooms in and out. This is not very exciting, except for that classic cannon fire, but the band makes up for it. AC/DC plays a variety of older material and tracks from their newer album, The Razor's Edge. Brian Johnson prowls the stage doing his best to make up for the absence of Bon Scott, while Angus Young works his Chuck Berry homage as only he can. All nineteen songs fly by, played with the power that makes several of them classics and the rest giddy confections. This is either a fine treat for lovers of this recent inductee into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame or a fine introduction to one of the greatest of the last quarter century.
For those about to rock
If you want to rock out to one of the best rock bands ever then this is a must purchase. AC/DC is a band that always knows what it's fans want and then gives it to them. This is a live concert DVD with one of AC/DC's with plenty of high energy and excitement that you've come to associated with AC/DC concerts. Angus Young works the crowd like only he can. From the very beginning to the very end of the concert the energy level never lets up.
Brian Johnson voice fits well with earlier Bonn Scott(the original singer of AC/DC) songs like "Jailbreak", "Hell Ain't A Bad Place To Be", "Highway To Hell", "The Jack", "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap". The concert features a lot of songs from the Razor's Edge album which was new at the time with songs like "Thunderstruck" and "Fire Your Guns". There are the usual songs such as "Back In Black", "You Shook Me All Night Long", "Hells Bells", "Shoot To Thrill".
