Good for Sailing Junkies but not for the masses
The DVD Alinghi is more like an edited home video than an in depth documentary of the Cup Run. Those who can't get enough of wonderful sailing images and some great on the deck looks won't be dissapointed; however, if you are looking for a sophisticated look at the America's Cup journey this is not for you. Without spliced in segments from TV coverage this video would have earned a 2-3 stars. Perhaps its greatest strength is in the folly that became New Zeland's pathetic attempt at a defense and a great clip of the infamous NZ demasting... May be a little overpriced for what you get but entertaining nonetheless.
