The movie itself was nothing great, but is nostalgic for not only Kiss fans, but also Rock and Roll fans in general. Certainly, some high school memories will be jogged if you ever went to a concert with a bunch of friends to see your favorite band. The music in the movie was terrific, featuring not only Kiss classics, but also music from AC/DC, Van Halen, and a host of other mid to late-70s Rock and Roll.

The DVD features some great extras, including three (count them 3) commentary tracks. One by director Adam Rifkin, one by members of the cast and crew, and a third by Kiss. Two featurettes are included on the disc, both are superior to the run of the mill featurettes found on many discs. Two music videos, surprisingly neither one is by Kiss, though one is a cover of Strutter, and additional behind the scenes footage, some use of the multi-angle feature, and the usual bios and trailer.

The only real negative as far as disc features is one of the most annoying menus I have ever seen. Do yourself a favor and hit "title" on your remote control as soon as you see the "slide history of the remote control" begin.

The DVD in enhanced for 16x9 TVs and the image is quite good, as would be expected for a new release. Audio options, besides the commentaries, are DD 5.1 and DD surround. The music sounds great in 5.1. The segment where Van Halen's Running with the Devil playing deserves to be cranked up.

Overall, it is a solid movie, and would be of interest to folks who grew up during this time, in addition to the music, you get a chance to see many teen icons from the late 70s. If you are not a big fan of rock, you may want to pass on this one. New Line does, once again, deserve credit for putting out a great disc as far as extras, too bad the movie was not a tad better
