All Talk and no Action	April 17, 2009
Reviewer: Barbara�Clarke from Celina,�TX�United States

I bought this video. Well organized menu and not too long. In that reguard, however it's a HIGHLIGHTS video. You don't see any of the routines in their entirety - even the GOLD MEDAL winning tests - except for the Americans. This is obviously an American take on a global competition. Not only do they only show highlights, American-only tests, and absolutely no medal ceremonies BUT the two commentators TALK incessantly during all the free styles (KUR) so that you never get to see the harmony between horse and rider to the music. You wouldn't know there WAS music the way in the freestyle as they DO NOT SHUT UP. It's was infuritating. Who won gold? Do we even get to see more than 2 minutes of Heike Kemmer and Nadine Capellman? No. Do you even KNOW that Nadine Capellman competed? No. Do you even know who won the bronze team event? No. Do you get to see anyone from Denmark compete? No. Do you get to see anyone other than Imke Bartels & Anky from the Dutch team? No.
