Customer Reviews of Budo Masters - d

Budo Masters? I don't think so.
This dvd is titled "Budo Masters." The only Budo master in it is O-sensei, the founder of Aikido. The title should be, "Boring Kata Masters," Because that's all it is, a bunch of Karate-ka doing worthless kata. Most of the arts shown on this dvd were sport arts. Budo and Budoka's are not about competition. Don't waste your money. If you want to see a bunch of useless kata, go to the library and stare at a book on Karate or Tae Kwon Do.

not worth it
This film as a dvd is quite annoying because the entire film is one chapter, not allowing you to navigate to a particular scene. The sound quality is terrible, the music annoyingly repetitive and while the "rare" film footage has some interesting moments the quality is so bad that you can barely make out what is happening. Also there are much better and dynamic shots of some of these budo masters that this film (because of copyright?) didn't make use of. More of a slide show the narration is ridiculously limited, the titles amateuristic and so all in all nothing is missed by not having this poorly researched and trite exercise.

Great DVD when it's not stopping and skipping
The music is beautiful and the footage is outstanding. It's just disappointing that it never plays straight through. All my other dvds play with no problems, so I'm not sure why this happens, but it's certainly a distraction and inconvience when the footage is so exciting.
