Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Beautiful movie. Comment: The video quality of this movie was very good. My wife and I have been to italy many times and enjoyed this film because it had many of the same places that we had been to. We have a movie similar to this one that is not blu-ray and it just doesn't hold up to the beauty of Italy. I would definitely recommend this movie to anyone interested and I would also recommend a blu-ray player so that you could watch this excellent movie in it's full quality. Customer Rating: Summary: Disappointed Comment: I only wish that more time was devoted to the natural beauty of Italy and its cities,towns and natural coutryside, particulary in the north, as opposed to horse racing, auto racing etc. Customer Rating: Summary: Amazing. Simply Amazing. Comment: It is a shame that there are people who don't bother to READ what these documentaries are about BEFORE they buy them and are disappointed. The oft-stated aim of Discovery Atlas is not a history lesson ... it is a unique look at countries through the eyes and personal stories of a select group of individuals. What better ways to learn the true feelings and emotions than by this manner. Exquisitely shot, wonderfully narrated, these videos provide a unique look into each of these nations that one would not otherwise EVER be party to. Customer Rating: Summary: a let down Comment: Not the thing I thought it was. I wanted the colors of Italy. This isn't it. Customer Rating: Summary: Don't waste your time Comment: I purchased this DVD with much enthusiasm only to find that it dose not play on my combo bluray/HD player. I send it back for replacement and it still would not play and had to finally return it all together. It seem from reading other reviews this is typical of this title (or series). Don't waste your time buying this DVD. More Reviews
