 Rating:  - REASON FOR CUT PERFORMANCES ON DVDTHE REASON WHY CERTAIN PERFORMANCES WERE CUT (GNR, METALLICA, EXTREME, DEF LEAOPARD TO NAME A FEW) WERE DUE TO COPYRIGHT ISSUES FOR PUTING THE CONCERT ON DVD...IF YOU ARE A TRUE QUEEN FAN THIS DVD IS FINE BUT FOR THOSE WHO WANT THE CONCERT IN ITS ENTIRTY WILL HAVE TO SETTLE FOR THE VHS AT THIS TIME....WHO KNOWS WHEN THEY'LL RE-ISSUE THE DVD...MAYBE THEY WILL ON BLU-RAY ONE DAY, BUT FOR NOW IT'S ALL WE GOT AT THE MOMENT... Rating:  - Poor tasteI was so excited to finally be finding this on DVD, but like so many others, I am extremely disappointed in that not only were all of the opening acts and footage of Freddie's performances cut out, also Elizabeth Taylor's appearance was cut out! She was one of the main people behind putting this concert together not only for the sake of raising money for AIDS Research, but also in honor of "Queen" and Freddie.

Such as the performances of Def Leppard, Mertallica, Extreme, Guns n' Roses & other artists whom I know participated in the concert. I was not informed that the DVD I was purchasing during the time contains and limited to only selected concert performances. Rating:  - Freddie's memoryI loved this DVD. I cried more than once and re-lived a time I thought had been forgotten. For any Queen fan, this is a must have! I will continue to watch it and remember for years to come. The second DVD was great seeing the behind-the-scenes views and comments from the contributors also! Rating: - Emotionally touching from beginning to end.If you loved Freddie, you must see the preformers who flew to Wimbley to pay respect for their friend (and were not compensated). I also bought a copy of this dvd for my extremely difficult to shop for mother, who called me in tears (of happiness) afterward. Proceeds of the concert and dvd sales are donated to AIDS research.
