Ok, first the reasons why I’m giving it only 4 stars: Why couldn’t they put together a Blu-ray deluxe package? I had to choose between buying the full 2-disc DVD + 2 disc CD version or, if I wanted superior audio and video, go with the 1 disc Blu-ray. I definitely think that’s something they should look into for possible future Blu-ray releases. I would have liked the option to get the full 3-day setlist on Blu-Ray. They did the same with the Nimes Blu-Ray of which there is a boxed set version only available on DVD. Again, I opted for the Blu-Ray. Another thing I don’t really like about the Mexico Blu-Ray is that they placed interviews/behind the scenes stuff in-between songs instead of having it separately as Special Features like on the Nimes disc. It’s annoying if I just want to watch and enjoy the concert for it to be interrupted but little bits of fan or band interviews (all in Spanish, by the way).
The setlist on the Blu-Ray is as follows:
The Ecstasy Of Gold
Creeping Death
For Whom The Bell Tolls
Ride The Lightning
Disposable Heroes
One
Broken, Beat & Scarred
The Memory Remains
Sad But True
The Unforgiven
All Nightmare Long
The Day That Never Comes
Master Of Puppets
Fight Fire With Fire
Nothing Else Matters
Enter Sandman
The Wait
Hit The Lights
Seek & Destroy
Since Metallica played three consecutive shows in Mexico City, the footage is from all three nights combined. I was at the concert on the 4th of June and, again, I wish I could have seen all the songs they played that night on Blu-Ray (Blackened, for example is only available on the 2-disc DVD package). The concert was awesome and this disc is extra special for me since I was there. Audio and Video are great…it’s awesome to finally see a Metallica Blu-Ray release. I do think that the Video quality of the Nimes Blu-Ray is slightly better…but that maybe because of the cool venue they played in Nimes. Also, the helicopter footage was clearly not shot in HD as the quality is horrible compared to the rest of the concert footage. BTW…buy both at the Met website instead of here…they’re cheaper there even with shipping!
