Robert 1d Really only for people that love megadeth, not something worthwhile for anyone else. Its kinda like a YouTube video or album extras kinda thing. Im a huge YouTube fan and it couldve been there but the theater experience is nice. Its a listen of the new album with Dave talking about each song and some band history. As a megadeth fan I enjoyed it but no one else will. See more Patrice 1d Great way to hear the new songs from the upcoming final album! Nice older footage and insight from Dave on the making of the Megadeth catalog and certain songs in particular. A bittersweet experience now that we're looking at the final album and tour. Overall, very enjoyable and a must for any Megadeth fan! See more David W 2d It was total Megadeth with history bits you can't get elsewhere. See more Christopher 2d Ive been a fan of Dave Mustaine, since his early days as a member of Metallica. Once he formed Megadeth, I was suddenly hooked and became a fan of both bands. Loved the movie and new music from their final album See more Albert DeMello 2d Great conclusion to Dave Mustaines MEGADETH. Crushing songs. Nice history info behind the scenes. Great visuals during the new album preview. 4 stars. IMO , their best work. See more Kevin 2d Great introduction to the new album, full song music videos and great insight from Dave Mustaine. Even my wife who is not a metal fan came away liking the movie and the songs. See more Read all reviews
