Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.

Limerculer A waste of 90 minutes of my life

Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

leplatypus Music is the language of feelings, and for me, U2 embodies the best of humanity: Love, Peace, Compassion. Their songs, friendship, dedication are as much proof of this evidence. Who can't be moved by such integrity ? With this tour, they come back to simplicity: no big screen, no pop extravaganza… It's a pity: they were the only ones to deliver this package and it was as much fun as it was truth.About the music, I am disappointed to hear always the same classic on their DVD, even if all the "unplugged" songs are great: "Wake up", "Desire", "Staring at the sun", "Angel of Harlem"...But as long as I have those goose bumps: Thanks U2 for giving me such primal feelings! In bonus, you got a making-of about the song "Pride" 23 years ago at Slane Castle... Even after 3 big records, the band stayed simple (look at their clothes) and their only drive was music not money!!!!

dermottferry I own many U2 DVD's. I own all of U2's albums. I have plenty of t-shirts, posters etc. If my house was burning down and I had to grab one of these U2 items, it would be this DVD (just edging out Achtung Baby).The Elevation Tour was again a hugely successful tour for U2. Demand for the homecoming from fans resulted in Slane being played over two nights fpr the first time in its history.Despite playing around the world, this gig stands out- for two reasons. One- the boys had come home, to play in front of 80,000 people. Two, this concert came closely after the death of Bono's father. So the emotion was high as the boys stepped onto the stage like Kings taking their place on their throne. Then its time to sit back in amazement as Bono, Larry, Adam and Edge do what they do better than anyone- play live.Playing hits young and old, this is quite a show. Kicking off with the perfect start, 'Elevation', everyone in the audience screaming 'ooooooohhhhh',- not their best lyrically, but up there without a doubt with other great concert openers like Zoo Station.U2 then move on to an unbelievable performance of 'Beautiful Day'. A personal live favorite of mine, 'Until the End of the World' comes next, and is followed by the fantastic 'New Years Day'. The first real touching moment comes during the bands first single 'Out of Control', where Bono pronounces the Slane crowd as 'our tribe' and thanks them all for their support over the years.Other highlights of the show are 'Sunday Bloody Sunday' and the song 'Kite', which Bono dedicates to his late father Bob Hewson. But for me, the stand out performance is 'All I Want is You', leading into 'Where The Streets Have No Name.' Quite simply its magical.They're magical.This is a DVD that any U2 fan will probably have already. But if you don't- go get it right now!!

billsfanmm I wasn't a big u2 fan...I didn't know much about them..but I heard some of their songs and I decided to pick up this DVD after seeing it in the store...Since then I am a complete fanatic...this concert is amazing...If u like u2 or not...watch this...they kick it off nicely with elevation and really rock the crowd...U get goosebumps listening to Sunday bloody Sunday because u can tell the passion the band members have for it...and they end it all with walk on which was also glorious...I wish every day I was at this concert...also check out vertigo in Chicago...another great DVD..Apparently I need to write more...Kite is a very emotional track...people who have seen this...there is a close up on the edge during the song...if u look at his face u can see he is feeling bonos pain due to the loss of his father...u2 rocks....

Andy (AndoMando) This concert from Slane Castle in Ireland filmed in 2001 is absolutely amazing. U2 really are one of the greatest bands on the planet.The scale of the gig is unbelievable, but the performance from the band is astounding. Just seeing them rip into 'Elevation' turns the stomach.Bono is a fantastic front-man, with songs 'Beautiful Day' and 'Sunday Bloody Sunday' sung with great passion from the Irish singer. On 'Kite' he is almost drawn to tears singing about his recently deceased father. A very moving moment indeed.'All I Want Is You' is fantastically submerged into 'Where The Streets Have No Name', and 'One' is as beautifully melodic as ever.Clearly one of the best bands around, check out the 'U2 Go Home' DvD out now also.Standout tracks: 'New Years Day', 'Angel Of Harlem', 'Where The Streets Have No Name' and 'One'.9.5 out of 10
