4 stars Well, I'm not quite sure what's more enjoyable, 'The Rebirth of Germany', 'Prog Rock Britannia', or this film. I mean, here you have the boys talking about their music-making approach, eating loads of food, having a joke on Nick Mason with ham and peas, and, of course, freaking out like no one else would at the time in US or UK, unless I'm wrong. None of their performances are up to the par with the studio originals, but they were good. The first half of 'Echoes' is my personal favorite here.

Just when I read in a review that the Floyd were only acting as if they were making 'Dark Side of the Moon' when they were already finished with it, I was a bit frustrated with the knowledge of that. Nevertheless, this documentary is a lot of fun. I got to be in the canteens with the Floyd and watch them play in an empty Pompeii amphitheater.

Stamp: 'I like it.'
