Rating: Summary: Not ashamed to admit it! Britney is HOT! Review: I happened to be going to a conference in Vegas the week that Britney was performing at the MGM Grand. I heard Rosie O'Donnel Say on her show that she had just got tickets for the Britney show in Vegas on the 18th of November. Not paying much attention I quickly forgot all about it. The following day I got bored at work and while daydreaming I remembered what Rosie had said and thought, what the heck, "I'll check out the ticket prices", Figuring that they would be sold out for sure and I had no idea of when they went on sale. Much to my surprise they still had seats available, so I (just to see) typed in 2 seats and I could not believe that the seats were really good and not high priced considering what I have paid recently for concert tickets, like for Madonna. (well worth it though). Anyway, bought the tickets, went to the show and although compared to the majority of those around me, I felt like a grandpa(I am 30). Even so, as much as I tried to act my age, before I knew it, I was up on my feet and feeling the energy. I was not expecting much and have to say was embarrased to admit to anyone at home that I was even going. After her incredible show, I have admited to everyone that I am a fan of Britney Spears and you will be too, I guarantee it! I am sure the DVD will be less powerful than seeing it live, but just feel her amazing energy and see her for what she is, A young woman living out her dreams and allowing us to tag along! AMAZING!
Rating: Summary: Britney does it again. This concert tops them all! Review: I'll admit, I'm a HUGE Britney fan, which might skew this review a bit in her favor. But I'm also an avid concert goer and, let me tell you, this is quite the show!!! Yes, she does lip-sync, but let's face it, it takes nothing away from the production. You will be utterly amazed by the special effects at this concert and her dancing is superb. The music still sounds great whether she's singing or not. Plus, with all those dance moves, you can't blame her for needing to lip sync. I'm one of those who would rather sacrifice the voice for the production. I was lucky enough to see this Las Vegas show in person, and the DVD does a great job of capturing the concert. In fact, I was able to get an even better view of all I had missed. Only things missing from the DVD are special features and a multiple-angle viewing option. Britney fan or not, if you want to see out-of-this-world show then this DVD is a must!
Rating: Summary: VIVA LAS BRITNEY Review: Britney Spears has always been one of my favourite performers. Her albums are always so funky, her videos are always so ... and she always puts so much energy into her performances. Okay, so she may lip-sync every now and then, but that's not to say she isn't a damn good entertainer, and this DVD proves it. Singing all of her hits and the best bits of her albums, Britney's Las Vegas Show is a tour de force and is sooooo much more than your average concert, it's a show.She opens with former No.1 single "OOPS I DID IT AGAIN", tied to a spinning wheel she rotates for the first verse, before coming on to the large stage to finish. She follows it up with (YOU DRIVE ME) CRAZY,.... OVERPROTECTED follows. Dressed in a very ... catsuit-type attire she puts plenty of oomph into one of the freshest and funkiest tunes of the show. Next is the enjoyable medley of BORN TO MAKE YOU HAPPY / LUCKY / SOMETIMES. She is dressed quite scantily, and that's always appreciated. BOYS, one of her more different sounding tunes, allows Spears to put her ... to good use, as she writhes around on stage and interacts, quite intimately, with her dancers. STRONGER and NOT A GIRL, NOT YET A WOMAN come after this. I LOVE ROCK 'N' ROLL is one of the more energetic performances as she pips away on a raised platform, before she hangs from the ceiling mid-air, in a stunt you could see the Backstreet Boys or NSync pulling off. Her urban influenced track WHAT IT'S LIKE TO BE ME has plenty of synchronized dancing and energy. LONELY would have to be one of the better performances as she interacts with a computer generated version of herself, seen on a big screen. The song is almost like a duet. Very cool. Ballad DON'T LET ME BE THE LAST TO KNOW gives Britney time to breathe in a rather uninspired performance which is very lifeless and in this she sounds like a drag queen. Sorry Ms Spears, this was the shows' downfall. She picks up the pace with the cheery pop tune ANTICIPATING. Plenty of colour, this peformance is vibrant and very much for the young. She incorporates the audience into this one, by asking them to sing along and clap their hands to the chorus. This all changes when she strips off to a tiny, shimmery skirt and green bra top, basically what she wore at the 2001 MTV's, minus the snake, for the pumped up performance of I'M A SLAVE 4 U. This is an awesome performance with plenty of heat and no doubt her male fans will have a field day, thanks to Spears' bust and her attire. You'll see what I mean. After thanking everyone for coming out, she appears back on for an alternative take on her biggest hit to date, BABY ONE MORE TIME. This is where she is drenched in a shower of rain for the performance which is not the ...BABY, we remember hearing. But seeing a wet Spears is satisfactory enough. I strongly recommend this to any Britney fan. You'll have fun.
Rating: Summary: Someone put this tramp out of misery Review: First Britney Spears comes out with album after album of awful, so-called music and now a DVD so disgusting, it brings soft porn to a whole new level. Britney is as ugly as a baboon that she has to wear so much makeup to look good when in fact, she is disgusting. Her voice is all pre-recorded hence she mimes, and badly I may add. She has no voce from all of the chain-smoking she does. Avoid this DVD!
Rating: Summary: Annoying Review: Not only is she a lip syncher, but she is also very annoying live. She hardly wears any clothes when she's on stage. She's set up like Jessica Rabbit from the film "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?". She has great looks and puts the men in her audience in awe. She can't sing to save her own life (even a fictional cartoon character can beat her at singing) and she'd be better off as a cheerleader. She gets on many people's nerves....and only sells records due to taking off her clothes at award shows (such as the ones FOX network has every year) and dancing erotically on stage. Avoid this DVD and get Jimi Hendrix : Live At Woodstock for a better concert.
Rating: Summary: A Pop Princess! Review: First she comes out with album after album of great music and now a DVD so great, it brings her to a whole new level. Britney is hot and you can witness it all here, from her dance moves to the way she entertains all. Highly, highly recommended!!
Rating: Summary: To Hell with this musical prostitute Review: If you missed Britney during her critically panned Onyx Hotel tour, then you should avoid this DVD to spare yourself of her lack of talent on stage. It must be said: this girl doesn't work very hard for her money and spends as much on her smoking and booze habits. Much to the dismay of that a****** The Infidel, she MIMES, and MIMES badly I may add, on each and every one of her songs! Singing for real is so beneath her.
Rating: Summary: A LIP SYNCHING CLASSIC Review: THIS DVD IS THE BENCHMARK FOR ALL LIP SYNCHING VIDEOS AND SHOWS HOW THIS TALENTLESS BABE HAS PERFECTED IT INTO A HIGHLY SPECIALIZED ART FORM.I HAVE SEEN HER MIMING IN A LONDON CONCERT ON HER ONYX HOTEL TOUR.BACK TO THIS DVD IT IS ONE OF THE WORST EVER MADE.AVOID AT ALL COSTS.GET THE DVD OF AUDIOSLAVE INSTEAD.
Rating: Summary: Britney in the city of sin! Review: If you missed Britney during her critically acclaimed "Onyx Hotel" tour, then you should get this DVD to witness her talent on stage. It must be said: this girl works very hard for her money. And contrary to the opinions of a few moronic "music" snobs, she actually SINGS on each and every one of her songs live! Lip-synching is so beneath her. Anyway, what are you waiting for? Buy now!
Rating: Summary: Yes, she's The Queen Of Lip-Sync Review: Ok, Is she a singer or what? "Live From Las Vegas" should be renamed "Lip-Sync From Las Vegas". This is a Concert, a MUSICAL, therefore you should be singing. I gave 2 stars because I have to admit it, she's hot all wet and there were a few FEW good acts... 3 is many.
