Bandwagon

Purple Rain was personal, man, and that went quadruple platinum!
First off, this is one of my favorite films of all time. I can watch it over and over and over and never get bored of it. I discovered it a year ish ago randomly on Netflix. I was so disappointed when I realized I couldn't buy it on DVD. A few days ago, something possessed me to look for a DVD copy for the hundreth time. I was surprised and excited when I found out I could now buy it on DVD! Anyway, I gave this 4 stars, because I feel it's a bit overpriced for what you get. The packaging and physical DVD itself are kind of chintzy, but when you play it, it is very good quality and everything. It also kind of annoyed me for some reason that there was no DVD menu of any kind, the movie just started playing right when you put it in.

A very telling look into what its like being in a band
I happen to really like this movie. Though I haven't gotten around to ordering the DVD yet, I have it recorded on VHS. I gave it 4 stars based on the fact that the previous review said there is no menu which is a bit of a downer. But the movie is fantastic. It really impacted me in college and I certainly related to it. Anyone who's been in a band can probably relate to this story. Definitely worth checking out.

Edit: I forgot to add, the music is awesome in this movie. It's all original and very catchy. I still have the soundtrack.
