Skillet? A MUST SEE BAND! Yes they are a Christian band yet the lyrics can be taken as just love songs for the most part by those who enjoy great music with feeling! I have personally seen such bands as Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, OZZY, Aerosmith, Fleetwood Mac, Black Sabbath, U2, The Cure, Ted Nugent, Judas Priest, Heart, UFO, Alice Cooper, Van Halen and literally over a hundred more! If you cannot see Skillet then get the deluxe edition of the RISE cd and watch the dvd that comes with it. Although Skillet will not replace Pink Floyd as my all time favorite show, the energy and emotion felt from their performance puts them high on my list of great bands to see AND hear!
What's great about it: the music is catchy and pertinent
What's not so great: The DVD of concert is not long enough
Audie Murphy plays himself in the inspiring biopic of the World War II hero. To Hell and Back arrives on DVD with a widescreen anamorphic transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 2.35:1. The film has never looked better on home video. The English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital Mono. Spanish and French subtitles are accessible. There are no supplemental materials of any consequence, but genre enthusiasts should find this disc worthwhile.

The only reason I did not give this movie a 5 star rating is because of todays special effects. Audie Murphy only gave in to allowing this movie to be made of his WWII service record if he could control what was portrayed. He completely downplayed this, as was his humble custom. What he did, according to the men who served with him, was only touched upon as to his bravery under fire and love for this country! If only we had a few more like him today! Specially within our present government! This is not a movie about special effects, nor acting, nor romance. Although he "watered down" the his part in these historic events, the movie still shows his true heart and selfless sacrifice for his men's lives, and his country's freedom. Its Just a plain, honest, and sometimes humorous and tragic, look at one of our nations greatest heroes of all time!
