The Last Waltz transcends its genre AND transcends its medium -- it is, simply, a remarkable work that succeeds both as Art and as Fun. My favorite moment: Look into Neil Young's eyes at he sings "Helpless" (harder than it sounds, given the jaw-dropping beauty and intensity of his performance). The whitewalls around his nostrils may have been edited out, but the manic, cocaine-fueled thousand-yard stare remains for posterity to enjoy. And as a bonus, you understand why Neil scared the living bejeebus out of Joni Mitchell, Graham Nash, and the rest of the "Canyon Rock" royalty when he so famously threatened, in song, to "kill them in their cars." God bless him :-)

I've never seen any other concert video even come close to this. They have captured a piece of what I can only imagine attending one of their shows would've been like.

Simply the best rock-u-mentry I have ever seen!

Very good for what it was. What it was? A concert, albeit a very good one, on film. What actually made it a movie and not a concert? If the fact that you film something technically makes it a movie. So be it.
