General Overview
The sequel to 1995's "Rockbusters", Rockbusters 2 -
"When the Dust settles" (RB2) boldly goes where RB1 went before. In
some cases, literally. There is some great high speed, high action
footage to be had here, quick interviews with desert racing
superstar Robby Gordon and others, and some computer graphics
(morphing) for artistic value.
Highlights
Great camera angles
Airborne action
3 wheel cornering
Nerfing / Passing shots
Buggies and other classes join the Trophy
Trucks in this installment.
Commentary from Ivan Stewart, Robby Gordon,
and Walker Evans
"In car" camera shots
The Verdict - 2
So Whats the problem? Simple. RB2 doesn't really
"add" to what was done in part 1. The video is only 30 min long and
yet repeats the reuse of footage that plagued the first. In fact,
the Walker evans "interview" is indistinguishable from it's
counterpart in RB1. This is by no means a "bad" video, and I
wouldn't say avoid it, but be aware that for $20.00, another 1/2
hour of trucks and buggies would have added worlds to it's
value.
