English Rugby's Six Of The Best - The 90s DVD

Advantages: piece of history
Disadvantages: price

...I think that this an excellent way to sum up the English win at the 2003 rugby world cup. This DVD is a must have for all of those English rugby fans out there who want to treasure a little part of history on DVD. Throughout this DVD there is tension and suspense time and time again after already seeing it several times. The quality of the DVD is excellent and truly remarkable. The sound quality is tremendous on both accounts of the crowd and the commentators. The DVD has only the best parts of the game, which in some ways is a lost because it would have been nice to have the whole match on DVD as well as the highlights throughout the game. The action replays and camera angles of the tackles and tries in this DVD are some of the best that I have ever seen. If you are wanting to keep a part of history about England's first rugby...

Advantages: Some great action for rugby fans, Extras are very good
Disadvantages: A Little rushed, Too much time spent on opening ceremony

...With the Rugby world cup 2007 fast approaching, I decided to root out this DVD, which I had bought as part of a set of four after the 2003 event. As a big Rugby union fan, I definately enjoyed this DVD, which features all the best tries, tackles, kicks and performances from the wonderful tournament. However it does feel a little rushed, and way too much time is spent watching the highlights of the opening ceremony. The rugby action is good, but the chapters can sometimes look more like montages than actual rugby footage. This DVD does feature the entire Wales vs New Zealand quarter final, widely regarded as one of the best games in rugby world cup histroy. This is a great bonus, as the game is brilliant from the first minute to the last, a truly great game. THE DVD Released just after the end of the 2003 world cup, this DVD shows all... Read review
