Format:Blu-ray
This product and it's title is something Saints fans have dreamt about for over 40 years, finally the dream has come true and our team was confirmed as the best in the NFL and no longer the cellar dwellers. After waiting so long I think I can say with some conviction that all of us wanted a product that matched the quality of football that our team displayed throughout that tough season ending in our Superbowl victory over the odds on favourite Colts. That product is this one.
The quality of this film leads little to be desired, sure there may be a hankering for more gameplay on the run in to the Superbowl; some may say that a few more in depth interviews or profiles of players would have been nice. But that's nitpicking really. This is also good value for money, besides the main feature there are eight extra content features where you will find the story of Coach Payton, the half time show (brilliant on the night) and much more. I would recommend that if you are a fan of football then this should certainly be on your shopping list and then on your "most played DVDs" list. If you are a Saints fan and don't buy it then shame on you. For anybody in the UK who may have format worries, calm your soul, this plays in any good modern DVD player.
In conclusion, even without my obvious leanings towards the Saints, I have watched almost every Superbowl for over 20 years, and for me this was one of the great ones. So even if you aren't a Saints fan this is still the story of an exciting and inspiring journey capped off by a cliff-hanger of a game. One in which the Colts played their hearts out too - something that their fans should also be proud of. There will be other imitators on the block as alternatives to this DVD, but this was produced by the NFL for football fans and it shows. I highly recommend it.

Understand before buying
6 April 2010
Format:Blu-ray|Amazon Verified Purchase
Anyone thinking about buying this product has to understand that the superbowl in its entirety is not on this Blu-ray. It is just highlights of the season that is being narrated (telling the story of the saints from the beginning of the season to the end). I gave this a three star because i am a die heart Saints fan. I purchased this Blu-Ray because I wanted to watch the superbowl in its entirety again; as well as years to come.
This Blu-ray is not a bad highlight reel of the saints 2009/2010 season. So, if you are ok with the fact that this is not the actual game, then this is the Blu-ray for you.

WIN AGAIN!! Feels like winning the SB all over again!

Format:Blu-ray|Amazon Verified Purchase
This Blu-ray is worth the price! At first, I debated purchasing it because it didn't show the entire Super Bowl but this is better. It tells a great story going game by game with great commentary from Jim Henderson and WWL radio. I was happy when they showed us winning and still a bit upset when they showed the 3 game losing streak. I choked up a bit (again) when they showed Hartley nail the winning FG in the NFC Championship game.
The story is told from a definitively Saints and Who Dat Nation perspective. It's like no one else matters, not even Peyton Manning, he's an after thought (in the film). They do a good job of capturing the spirit of the Saints, season, each game and the Super Bowl.
If you are a Saints fan this is a must buy and if you're not you'll still enjoy a great film.

Great!
1 Dec 2010
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Just what i wanted, just the right balance between the in match action and the sideline banter, it manages to build up each game and then convey the brilliance of each and every one of them. Sometimes the length of the match highlihts for particular games are not very long which can be frustrating and if i had one main problem with the DVD, it would be that in most games the highlights only include key touchdowns and not every score, this can be fairly confusing and in the regular season takes away some of the magic, however these are made up for by the rest of the movie.
The playoffs and then the superbowl are shown in good detail which is good and also, these stages contain lots of sideline footage and other extra film, this obviously ends up with the magical moment of the Neq Orleans Saints winning the Superbowl, i believe that this is captured well and the aftermath of the superbowl on the whole is shown very well.
Overall, i think that this product is Brilliant for its price and is a must buy for any Saints fan. WHO DAT!
