Customer Reviews of Kids In The Hall - Same Guys, New Dresses
Solid doc w/ interesting insights-NOT a concert film! First off, let me say that anyone looking for the Kids In the Hall's answer to "Monty Python Live at the Hollywood Bowl" will be sorely disappointed. This is more of a backstage documentary, though some live concert sketches are included (only a few full scenes, mostly segments). The audio was not taken from the theatre's sound boards, so it is a bit dodgy at times, though always audible. You want to pick up this DVD for a glance at the Kids' actual personalities and how they interact as a group. And it is fascinating as such, with as much insight as one could cram into 90 min. (obviously, you will not come away knowing the boys backwards and forwards). Also, don't expect a laugh riot - when offstage, they five are not always "on" and cutting up. Indeed, it's far more interesting to hear them discuss business and their methodology than simply trying to be funny constantly. Though, the commentary IS possibly funnier than anything in the film, as the Kids freely comment and rip on themselves and each other while viewing the film. Guest commentary by Mike Myers, Jason Priestly, and Andy Richter is amusing and interesting, though the comments from Trey Parker & Matt Stone are unfunny and obnoxious (they're trying WAY too hard to be funny). As far as the Kids go, McDonald and Thompson come off as the nicest (though Thompson seems rather, shall we say, eccentric), McKinney is amusing but the most businesslike, and Foley & McCulloch come off as the least likable. The extras are bizarre and irreverant, as one one expect from the troupe. Well worth picking up!
A must have for KITH fans
This is a great dvd for those who are longtime fans of the Kids are curious about their backstage dynamics. You get a great feel for their live shows, as well. The commentaries are funny and insightful. Some people have complained about the audio quality of the dvd but it is only poor in parts because they were just using the camera mic to capture the sound for the behind-the-scenes segments. Therefore, the quality of the audio depended on how close each person was to the camera. Most of it is just fine, and the stage segments sound fine because they are wearing mics. I was very pleased with this dvd and would love to see one made from their 2002 tour and a set done from their tv shows!
A Real Buzz Kill.....
I LOVE the Kids, but this dvd is so disappointing! Too much focus on the backstage bickering. Badly filmed, muffled sound. The situations and discussions filmed seemed to make the Kids look like a bunch of whiny babies who don't like each other anymore. I wanted to see more of the stage show, what little was covered of it looked pretty funny.
I guess this is really a look into the reality of the Kids and how they (didn't) get along with each other after working separately for the years after the TV show was over. It just made me sad. I can't wait for the TV shows to all be on DVD--if it isn't in the works then it oughta be.
