Inclubabu Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
aqua_swing As a fan who has never seen NIN live, this thing was good for me to get. It has on one side, all the videos, and all the live stuff on the other side. It's crazy videos that have never been shown on TV (Happiness in Slavery) sometimes make you sit there and wonder what was happening in the minds of the video producers, and the live footage makes you wonder how many more times Trent can throw himself into people and musical objects without hurting himself. The best parts of this video though, are the David Bowie parts. If you've never heard the version of "Hurt" sung with the two of them, you're definitely missing out. Alongside Johnny Cash's cover, it's the best version of this fantastic track.A must buy for any NIN fan.
mesmre I was really scared the first time i saw this film, well the second film i watched them the wrong way round, but even so they are still visually stimulating and mentally mind-numbing. Definitely worth there money and weight in gold. The first video is a treat a collection of NIN videos for the not so MTV friendly world, including tunes like head like a hole and wish. The second is an assault of violence giving a sneak view of the self destruct tour, which is just amazing for those pour NIN fans that haven't seen them live. Roar untamed hedonistic power.
andy-227 I borrowed this tape from a friend who likes NIN, yet he said this tape was a gift he didn't ask for and wouldn't have asked for. I watched it knowing what I would see was going to be something sick. It's kind of weird, because the first tape is like a documentary on acid, yet it does have a sense of humor, a first for NIN. One who watches it cannot help but laugh at the scene where the group throws everything they can at an exit sign to knock it down, including beer bottles, couches, chairs, and so on. I found myself enjoying this tape, as twisted and distorted as it was. Then came the second tape, which was an assortment of their music videos, complete and uncut. It was here that the enjoyment of the music and the madness took a downfall. It gets particularly disturbing. I originally had an interest in buying this tape, but the video "Happiness in Slavery" was enough to make me run the other way(I don't want to get into the details). Who do they hire who are willing to participate in portraying such sick activities as depicted on these music videos? It's a mystery! I don't think I'll know what NIN or Trent Reznor's trademark of technical distortions and sick imagery really means or why they are doing it, but a little bit of really sick stuff never hurts, as long as it stays within a boundary that's watchable.
TMBeJ "Closure," an extensive video compilation released in November 1997 by Nine Inch Nails, contained two tapes. The first tape follows the infamous group around on a 1994-96 tour. The second tape contains all Nine Inch Nails videos ever produced, except for one particular video, for the song from the Oliver Stone movie, "Natural Born Killers." (The name of this song is called "Burn.")The video segments are sometimes too disturbing and uncomfortable to watch (the videos for "Sin," and "Happiness In Slavery" come to mind.) The rest of the videos, as bizarre as they may be, are slyly connected by the director by interesting, if not partially disturbing segments.At its best, tape two of "Closure," seems to have been produced without any compromising of aesthetic goals. At its worst, "Closure" proves to be too sickening to be enjoyed. Keep the remote control handy, because you'll want to fast forward through a few of the clips. Some "watchable" videos include "Head Like a Hole," "Down In It," "Wish," "Eraser/Hurt/Wish (Live)," "March of the Pigs," and "The Perfect Drug."Even if you can stomach extremely disturbing stuff, this one might cause a second or two of crawling skin. Enjoy, NINnies.
