U2 3D
U2 3D is not just a film, it’s an experience as U2, one of the world’s most enduing rock bands recorded the Latin American portion of their Vertigo tour in the IMAX format. Because it’s in 3D the intimacy is unprecedented as you’re right there on stage with The Edge, Larry Mullen Jr. and Adam Clayton and when lead singer Bono reaches out in a close-up you feel obliged to reach back and shake hands, yet you also have a great perspective to enjoy the clever staging to its fullest. It’s fascinating that a group of Irishmen are so adored in so much of the Spanish speaking world but in deference to that one song sung in Spanish by Bono whose vocals are totally spot on, stretches his range to a place heretofore unheard and is the highlight of the concert. U2 3D appears to be one night in Argentina was actually seamlessly edited from shows in seven cities and it’s a knockout, as a matter of fact it’s probably the best concert movie that you will ever see.
