 Always Outstanding! April 5, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I am always hesitant about buying a live cd, because most of the time the sound isnt always good. I am so happy I took I chance with this cd! The choice of songs and the sound is outstanding! I wish I could have been there! American Life is my favourite Madonna song - and it rocks on this album, it even sounds better than the original! The documentary is interesting, and worth watching to see the live bits of the concert! Really enjoyed this one!!!
 Excellent but DVD a little too long! October 14, 2006
Watching this DVD reminded me what a great sense of humour Madonna has! It really is like 'Truth or Dare' 15 yrs later, with a still sassy, controversial Madonna with far less of the rude stuff. But once gain you find her ability to inspire those around her endearing to say the least and her dancers are far more likeable than the some of the bitchy queens on Blond Ambition!!!! MY only criticism would be the Israel section was really streching it and would have worked far better as an extra, as it does feel tagged on and does not allow for the natural closure of the end of the tour footage.
The live CD is a great bonus. "Nobody knows me" was my least favourite track of my least favourite Madonna album, now I love it as this live version gives it a new lease of life! "Lament" proves undeniably she can sing brilliantly live and is a nice addition, but the Missy Elliot remix of "Into the groove" is still lacking to say the least! "Crazy for you" seems a real shame of an omission, if only that it was the song she dedicated to her fans on the tour and was a track she had never played live in the UK before. But still worth it for the ever-fresh "Vogue" and dance mix of "Hollywood" (Madonna kissing Britney and Christina version).
Madonna October 2, 2006
This is great in general. I think even if you're not a true Madonna fan it would still be an interesting viewing. Madonna is a fascinating creature and this DVD gives you a great insight into the madness of her life and those around her whom she either adores or await her beckon call. Some bits are a bit slow-going to be honest but there are some deeply moving and motivational bits too. Just keep the tissues to hand for last prayer!
The CD is good but i think you really have to be in the mood to listen to it all the way through though the live version of Vogue is class!
Madonna's Live CD + DVD! September 6, 2006

When she fell of her horse last year and broke some ribs, nobody was expecting the Queen of Pop to return with three huge hits and a very good album. Now, for the first time, Madonna releases a live cd and DVD with all of her great hits, from Holiday to American Life and a great documentary from her 2004 ReInvention Tour. Directed by Jonas Akerlund. It's worth the try!
 Disappointment Re-invented July 4, 2006

The format of Madonna's first tour documentary (Truth or Dare/In Bed With Madonna) was clearly such a crowd pleaser that Secret director Jonus Akerlund opted not to reinvent the wheel. Sure, if it ain't broke don't fix it but the problem here is not so much the style of presentation as the leading lady herself. With Madonna's credit as executive producer you cannot help but feel her paw prints all over the final product. The concert looks incredible, she gives a flawless performance in all concert sequences and when (for the most part) she sings live - she hits the spot.
What made the first film so fascinating were the backstage antics of the dancers, singers, sound technicians, make-up girls and ofcourse the evian bottle felating icon herself. The film was rock and roll, cat fighting queens and prima donna strops all over the place.... this `sequel' is just a bit boring in comparison.
OK - so Madonna feels "there are less ups and downs in my life" and she reveals to us that she "wants to change", she also sings a heart warming rendition of John Lennon's imagine as two Palestinian and Israeli children (clearly actors filmed during the rehearsal phase of the tour) walk off into the sunset. I accept and politically support the ideal she is portraying but I wanted more tits, ass and "you stink - pussy man" or at least something interesting. I also came away feeling that Madonna had really lost touch with her audience. Early in the film when talking about her nerves for the opening night, she quotes some advice "don't think of them (the audience) as being thousands of people, think of them as thousands of lights"... whatever gets you through the night Madonna but each of those lights paid around 150.00 sit there twinkling, I suggest you think of them as paying customers.
It's not all mysticism and life-coaching (although pretty much), the award for `best actor in a supporting role' goes to her five year old son Rocco who steals the show. He smashes and bashes and bashes some more across the screen and has such a beautiful geezer boy attitude you can't help but love `im - along with the most infectious laugh you'll ever see on screen; the child is a joy. And to close with Rocco's own words, for the rest of the film you are left scratching your head and asking the question "What the heck are you talking about?"
