anybody watch Standing in the Shadows of Motown DVD? picked this up at walmart for $5.50. all the online reviews are great, but for some reason, i trust the opinions of peeps in here more than some schlub on amazon.com. everybody is giving it four stars....is it really that good? i won't be able to watch it until next week, and i don't wanna get all excited for a critical darling that's some boolshit (open water, blair witch, etc..) you look better on your facebook page than you do in person  | |

It's electrifying. The Funk Brothers sound young again. You get some great, great extra features on the dvd. It's an awesome movie. Check me out and add me on:

I love it!
I was MAD that Martha Reeve didn't sing a # with them tho but it was still nice seeing her after all these years. I loved Bootsy Collins's pre4mances and I loved Chaka Khan's duet with Montell Jordan on "Ain't No Mountain High" altho after Donny Hathaway, I don't think anybody esle after him should remake "Whats Going On?". My fave scene is the return of that exotic dancer,,,,ol' girlfriend can still jam with 'em  | |

I've had it awhile now. The Funk Brothers were no joke and TOTALLY underrated. Seriously, if u like music a hairline of a percent, you'll dig this. SynthiaRose said "I'm in love with blackguitaristz. Especially when he talks about Hendrix."

I really surprised that movie hit the bargin bins. It's really great but to be honest, I've never seen the special features. Interesting stories about the musicains. It's a really complete movie. Funny, emotional, awesome music! | |
