This was a WOW party to say the least. One to go down in history.
Ok I saw this today at my best friends house and it was off the hook! Norman Cook is such a likable guy. He was like a kid in a candy store up their playing for 1000's dancing and having a great time. The guy that gave the negative review and said people didn't seem like they were having a good time must was looking at the cup half empty here because this video is like 2 hours of people smiling, yelling, and dancing their butts off, having an awesome time, and what the electronic dance music culture is all about! If you have ever had a "magical" night somewhere dancing to great music then this is one to add to the collection. If you have wondered what a real electronic dance party is all about watch this. Over 250,000 people enjoying themselves to the talented and happy Norman Cook, on a beach, and people on boats dancing too. I wish I was there! When you watch it though, its kind of like you are : )

Couldn't stop dancing...
response to Brian -
Wow, you must be talking about ANOTHER DVD... one that doesn't rock your f*cking socks off... on your planet, when people are happy, what do THEY do? It can't be smiling and dancing and waving their arms and jumping up and down like freakin' pogo sticks, 'cause that wouldn't make sense at all.
This is one of the best live concerts I've seen of any genre of music... every camera shot of the audience contains someone having the time of their lives... even if they don't fully realize it. :) maybe go relax a little and watch again. You never know.

The Best DJ movie ever made!
Why is this the best DJ movie ever made? Because, it captures exactly what its like to be a part of the Dance Music scene. No, not everyone will like it. Either you "get" dance music or you don't. Electronic music is not slow, static or stationary, its created to get people moving, energized... dancing! So, if you plan on sitting on the couch eating twinkies and cereal you may find yourself slightly annoyed. "Why is everyone ejoying themselves and I'm not?", you may ask. Well, turn the volume up, have a red bull and enjoy the music. Fatboy Slim begs for you to be a part of the party. No other movie in this genre has yet to achieve what Live on Brighton Beach accomplishes.

Yes...One Plane Ticket To The U.K. Please.....
well....i just recieved this disk and i had very high hopes...let me say, most were met....but there are a couple things i got tired of real fast...first of all, if i wanted to see that many crowd shots, i would have bought "Dancing Party People: The Movie"....i would have loved to see a disk that was mostly the man himself with the giant screen in the background...that would have been cool...show me what it was like being in the crowd, not the crowd itself.....there is a couple quick shots on Chapter 14, about a min into the chapter that show perfectly what i mean....my other complaint is with the man himself.....he really comes across as having a butt-load full of ego....many, many, MANY instances of him striking the "jesus christ pose"...in all of my years of going to parties, i have yet to see a dj do this as much as he does during this set....other than those complaints, i have nothing but praise for it.....i have not checked out the special features yet, just the movie itself and i truly do dig it...the music is top notch, the quality of the picture and the sound is supurb....although this may not mean much, seeing as how this is my first review, i fully recommend this disk to fans of electronica everywhere.....

wish i was there...!
excellent music. awesome dancing. so many cool people. i just wish i could have been there. put this DVD on & DANCE!
