Great for The Killers Fans!
We are big fans of The Killers! We not only love their music but admire them as band members and enjoy getting to know them from interviews and documentaries like this. We very much enjoyed hearing about them from friends, from them in interviews and seeing pictures and videos of them in this DVD set.

This is a good DVD boxed set,
This is a good DVD boxed set, it includes two DVDs one of which is a documentary film, the other, my preferred film of the two,is a collection of excellent interviews with Brandon and the other guys and is worth getting if you're fan of this very accomplished group.Brandon's views I always find interesting and one of my favorite interviews on here is one where he puts that awful man , Richard Dawkins, in his place in a humble and respectful way. Dawkins is such a know all and respects no one or their faith - which he refuses to acknowledge is a personal matter for the individual. Brandon is a Mormon which is something he believes in, and Dawkins attempts to convert him to Atheism, not understanding that faith is not a scientific principle but a matter of personal belief which defies logic.Dawkins and his Ilk refuse to believe anything they cant see with the naked eye - idiots...

With Great Interviews!
A good 2xDVD set on The Killers with some ( ahem!) 'Killer' interviews with Brandon and the group included. Very informative therefore getting the lowdown from the Horses' Mouths so to speak.

Waste of money!!!
I bought this for my husband for his birthday. Being a huge fan of the killers. I give this No stars as it was a waste of money. The quality was very poor. No music. It looked like it was lifted from you tube. DO NOT BYE!!!!

Documentaries for Ardent Fans.
I quite like this boxed set of two DVD's about Brandon Flowers and the rise of The Killers, even if theyare unofficial and not sanctioned by the featured artists, as stated on the DVD covers. The first disc,"Leaving Las Vegas" is a documentary about the birth of the band, with contributions from friends, mentors, supporters, radio station producers and DJ's who knew them in the early days, with some good input from Matt Norcross who was an early drummer with the band.Although there is no actual musical footage from the boys, the result is an interesting, entertaining lookat which musical influences created the roots for the band that their fans have come to know and loveand how these Battleborn musicians found a welcome in the UK.Approx 60 minutes viewing.Disc two " Secrets and Whispers" is a collection of media interviews mostly with Brandon and Ronnie andis somewhat disjointed with the interview segments in no particular order. Starting with the infamous studio interview in Sweden, where Brandon was attacked by Richard Dawkins about his Mormon faith and standsup to him. The disc continues with interviews and discussions from various media sources about Brandon'ssolo album "Flamingo" and the long tours and stress it can have on family life. It gives some insights intothe personalities in the band.This is not the best example on how to 'showcase' a band, but ardent fans like myself might love to seesomething of how their musical heroes tick. With over 22 million in record sales they appear to be aforce to reckon with. I look forward to their 5th studio album in 2017.Approx 90 minutes viewing.No subtitles on either DVD.Customers should note that there is no music by The Killers on this product.
