Shot in 1986 and only just now remastered for release in the West, this documentary captures Queen in all their glory both on stage and behind the scenes
The musicians' thoughtful comments add a layer of meaning to their high-energy performance. And on stage, Mercury is simply mesmerising
Flirtatious, hyper-aware, funny. What a champ.
Hardly The Last Waltz... Is it even worthy of a DVD release?
Playing anthem after anthem, Queen show off the full spectrum of their sound, from thrillingly pompous to poignant - sometimes both in the same song.
This is a band who lived to be on stage, and this is the best document I've seen of that experience.
The Hungarian authorities, deeming it a historic occasion, deployed a vast film crew to record the gig, here crisply remastered in HD with surround sound.

Poor quality audio, pathetically re-mastered video; a great concert rendered very average. Yet another Eagle Vision "cash grab".
