Green Day: Bullet in a Bible

This show is amazing!!! Bullet in a bible is the first ever official DVD to be distributed by Green Day. Green Day puts on a rock production filled with pyrotechnics, unbelievable energy, and nonstop action that would surprise even the most loyal green day fan. The concert takes place at Milton Keynes bowl in the U.K. in front of 65,000 fans, where only few other rock bands like The Rolling Stones and U2 have had sold out shows. The DVD features over 100 minutes of exclusive performance, behind-the-scenes footage, and candid interviews with each band member. It is definitely something every Green Day or Punk Rock fan needs to watch!!

Bullet In A Bible is certainly a product of its time. It's a time capsule of the early-mid 2000s.

I wasn't a huge fan of the behind-the-scenes segments that take place between each song. It broke momentum in the show. Green Day were at their best when just playing their music. The musicianship was great and the energy infectious.

Billy Joe Armstrong pretty much jerks off in front of the audience, along with a whole heap of other moments doused in heavy cringe. The yelling of "ENGLAND!" every 5 seconds was tiresome - had we all forgotten where this was and needed reminding every so often?

Highlights for me were some of the old stuff from Dookie-era Green Day, as well as some of the closing songs. The ego (and music video background) of filmmaker Samuel Bayer was its downfall - far too many unnecessary scenes, and changeable camera angles, which was almost enough to give one an epileptic fit.

The music of Green Day will live on and never get old - but this concert (in parts) is going that way. It relies on heavy doses of nostalgia almost a little too much.

The last comment about this live film kind of over shot it. This isn't specifically a momentous green day show as far as content. The only amazing out of the ordinary thing is how any people it's played to. This set is what they play just about every time out minus when I come around, jaded, she, and they cut out the portion when Billie pulls three fans from the crowd to play knowledge. It's a good surface live DVD and a good surface documentary. Perhaps they make a full on concert DVD next time and a full on documentary. Though the split in it's approach takes away from what it could be it's still good, but it's not insanely entertaining for anyone who has ever seen the band play live, on this tour at least.

I loved it, even though being a Green Day fan it should be natural. I thought it was funny, touching, spectacular, over all awesome. It reminded me so much of one of their concerts I got to go to. I thought it was very well put together. Samuel did an awesome job. The interviews really got in deep, and made it to where you can kinda get to know the band a little better. And the backstage access to where you can see what the band does before and after their performances was a nice touch. I also loved how they had a mixture of the new and old material. I think it is well worth watching, especially if your a Green Day fan.

Definitely recommend.

To me this... documentary was one of the best i've ever seen about Green Day!!!!! The footage of the concerts was awesome. I didn't realize that Green Day was this loved until I saw this documentary. When they played Wake Me Up When September Ends and Billie Joe's voice was breaking up because of emotions, it almost brought tears to my eyes.

I liked Green Day's choices for songs to play. Actually I was surprised that they played Brain Stew. But I would be very satisfied with this documentary even if Green Day didn't play my favorite songs because I like almost every song by them anyways. So to make a long story short, this documentary was very well made and I enjoyed every second of it.
