Cirque du Soleil: Worlds Away

Never seen a Cirque du Soleil. They's taken a few bits from the various shows performing around Vegas and made a compilations that feels as much a 3D tech demo real as a circus showcase.

Andrew Adamson weaved a thin little story through the acts to try and bridge them together and for someone who clings to narrative it was hard for me to let go of that and just enjoy the spectacle. I feel like nothing would beat seeing this in person. But the 3D in the film is really great and the theatrical lighting and costumes really pop.

The different shows become very apparent as the look and style of them differ greatly. It's kind of patchy. And as snobbish as it sounds, I must admit a bit of fatigue after the 40th time you watch someone  contort their legs over their head.

But for people like me that have never had the drive to go out and see one of the shows in person this will give you a great taste of what they have to offer.
