It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

I absolutely loved Bullet In A Bible. Green Day is amazing live and they put on amazing shows. From beginning to end this was one enjoyable watch and listen. The behind the scenes stuff was very nice to see and this was the biggest concert done by a punk rock band to date. It has all there amazing breakthrough tracks off there amazing American Idiot record as well as many classic favorites such as Brain Stew, Longview, and Basketcase. They also even include a wonderful cover to the song Shout. Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt, and Tre Cool put on a phenomenal and enjoyable performance that i recommend to any Green Day or punk rock fan in general. This really shows why Green Day is one of them legendary bands that will go down as one of the best ever in punk rock..Green Day rocks!

A boiling hot summer day in Milton Keynes (we don't have many hot days in the UK so a hot day on its own is good)65,000 people in a big field looking place.... what more can you want?! The weekend is something that you think you will never experience again,You try to concentrate on every moment, every stupid/funny thing Billie Joe does so that you wont forget, Its something that you think you wont be able to capture moment like this again. At the start of the gig, I turned to a friend and said to her 'This is the best day of my life, I hope they release it on DVD'. And they did. The first time I watched it, I got back all the butterfly's and happiness that I had when I was there, watching Billie Joe interact with the crowd (no other live act can beat him)watching Mike Dirnt play the bass like it should be played and generally laughing my head off and Tre Cool faces as he drums. If you went to this gig, than you should buy it, It brings back all the great memories of the day, and if you didn't go then buy it cus you can see what you missed out on and enjoy just as much. There are only a few complaints about the DVD, I think its got too many special effects in it, It'll flash Billie, then to the crowd, then do a weird thing with the colours, than to mike, etc. You spend some of the time trying to work out where you are and who your looking at. I would've been happy enough just having one camera on the stage.....actually, maybe on the crowd occasionally otherwise you wouldn't get to see how many people where there. And me being the lucky person I am, I got to spot myself in the crowd. Which for a person who went is amazing. Also, they didn't include some of the songs that were played, I went on the first date, on the Saturday, and on performance I was looking forward to was seeing Knowledge, Maria, We are the champions and then seeing the songs they performed on Sunday such as Homecoming. Anyways to some up, a brilliant DVD, As I'm writing this I've actually got it on, listening to my favourite live performance of Minority. Go out and buy it, It's totally worth it!

To me this... documentary was one of the best i've ever seen about Green Day!!!!! The footage of the concerts was awesome. I didn't realize that Green Day was this loved until I saw this documentary. When they played Wake Me Up When September Ends and Billie Joe's voice was breaking up because of emotions, it almost brought tears to my eyes.I liked Green Day's choices for songs to play. Actually I was surprised that they played Brain Stew. But I would be very satisfied with this documentary even if Green Day didn't play my favorite songs because I like almost every song by them anyways. So to make a long story short, this documentary was very well made and I enjoyed every second of it.10/10

I am a huge Green Day fan. That's why when I heard this DVD was coming out I couldn't wait for November 15. Luckily, I found out that the DVD was going to be shown for a "pre showing" on November 1. I went out and got tickets the day they went on sale and got to the theater two hours early to make sure I would get a great seat. This DVD was the closest I could feel to being at a real concert. And I have been to one so I have something to compare it to. The best part was, not only the concert but, in between songs the band members were able to talk about their success and other things. I'm not sure if that means a "spoiler" so that's why I checked the box. Anyways, I give this a 10 out of 10. It really made me feel like I was there and gave me the need to buy the DVD right away.
