Top voted comments:
"Moving Pictures was a last hurrah for prog rock, which was falling out of favour by the early 80s. Rush had never, and would never again, achieve the greatness they did on Moving Pictures. Perfectly balancing their hard rock and softer electronic sounds. Featuring some of their best know hits in "Limelight", "YYZ", and "Tom Sawyer", as well as other highlights "Red Barchetta" and "The Camera Eye", as well as the also great "Witch Hunt", and "Vital Signs". Not a weak track or lull on the album, it's what Rush will be best remembered for, and that's ok by me."

"I don't listen to Rush much anymore these days but I used to like them a lot - when they were playing my age. This is their most commercial non-commercial album. I gave up on them when they introduced rap into their repertoire, they never won me back."
- Robert Anton Wilson (Rating: 100/100)
