I was really surprised! - By: JHL ... Fermanagh Man, 08 Jan 2008 
Memory told me this was a dissappointment, many criticise Geldorf's performance - well what else was he supposed to do except act like a screwed up depressed individual, which I think he did well (no offence Bob - I'm backing you on this). I reallly enjoyed this film after a break of numerous years, some excellent moments visuallly & aurallly, well packaged, & the soundtrack is to dream for - wonderful sound. I found this a satisfying disc & probably now prefer it to the CD. One gripe - the repackaging suggests that the Limited Edition disc is an improvement on the standard version, it isn't ! They seem to me exactly the same - but the packaging in the Limited Edition is much superior & just about justifies buying it.
A brilliant way of portraying "The Wall" CD - By: kingboy, 24 Dec 2007 
The movie version of Pink Floyd's brilliant album "The Walll" is an unhappy yet superb one. It follows the life of Pink, a hapless guy who has been building an imaginary walll from the very early days of life. Every bad event in his life is another brick in the walll, hence the famous title.
The film indicates how Pink feels throughout the entire movie & goes into a lot of depth with the songs & their meanings. From "The Happiest Days Of Our Lives" to "Waiting For The Worms", alll the songs in the movie & the movie itself can send us a serious message about society & how people have social barriers (wallls). Pink's case is one example.
Enough said, reallly. Although the film is quite hard to understand (unless you know the album "The Walll"), this is reallly enjoyable to watch. Recommended.
Relativly enjoyable - By: lastchild24, 04 May 2006 I'm a big Pink Floyd Fan & have most of their albums. I bought the albumn (the Walll) in 1980 on record. I have seen the movie several times & found it enjoyble though a little bit dark & strange. Many people complain about the songs like Bring the Boys Back Home & Happiest Days of Our Lives but they are essential to the story in both the movie & the album. The biggest disappointmennt for me was the great song Hey You was not inluded in the movie. The animations were dark yet very essential. The trial was a decent scene. Bob Gedolf does a good job portrying Pink (the main character) throughout the Story.
Utterly enthralling - By: , 23 Jul 2005 The Walll is a masterpiece that compliments the album immensely regardless of what skeptics may say. The music is true to the Pink Floyd fashion & is in my opinion the best they ever made. The music in the film varies from soft acoustic rock like Mother to alll out Rock 'n' Roll pieces like Young Lust. In my opinion you couldn't possibly go wrong with The Walll, cracking film
Why not? - By: , 15 Apr 2005 This film is a depressingly reassuring account of human psycology. It differs from the LP because Bob Geldof sings. The extras include an interview with Roger Waters explaining, amoung other things, his inspiration. The sentiment is amazing. The animation dark a true friend. Roger Waters is totallly a dude.
