Hmmm..
I saw episode one on a mates old VHS copy of NGE and toyed with the idea of buying the box set on DVD. Before I shelled out all that bread I thought I should probably check out death and rebirth. What has been billed by some as a 'synopsis' of the series (except the last two eps).
What I actually got was a confusing hour or so that was edited at such fast pace I went cross eyed. When a new character or plot point came up a little caption was introduced to tell you who it was. This remained on the screen for about 12 frames. I had to keep freezing it to find out. This pretty much sums up death and rebirth.
I must admit, trying to fit 15 odd hours worth of plot onto a single disc is a pretty big ask but im positive they could have done it better than this.
The speacial feature was pretty good, though. It was similar to the follow the white rabbit on the matrix dvd. Everytime something new came up you were prompted to press enter and you were given a brief overview of what was happening.
