It
finally happened, a DVD about a band without any of their music arrived that I
had never heard of and could not recognize a song of if I was on a game
show. The Killers Leaving Las Vegas (2006) tells us of how the band
came together, became successful and why they endure. Unfortunately, despite some interesting
interviewees, this could be a mockumentary if we did not know better because it
has none of their original music.
That
means after an hour of this, I have to take it on faith that the band is
good. I am purposely avoiding their
music for a while, thinking through this show and seeing if I agree with it or
not. Lets see how long the band lasts
for that matter. At least it is
well-researched.
The 1.33
x 1 image was finished in PAL video and shows such flaws, plus much of the
footage is NTSC. The Dolby Digital 2.0
is simple stereo at best, especially since none of their hits are here. Extras include discography, The Hardest
Killers Quiz in the world ever and beyond DVD promo section.
