brilliant!, 6 March 2006
Author: Jodi Drew from Utah, United States

You other people who have commented on this film must have had crap in your eyes while watching this movie, because it wasn't boring or crap. it was AMAZING!!! It didn't make me feel sick or dizzy watching the film at all! You're just jealous that you can't dance like they can! ha ha But seriously, this film is excellent, and I've loved watching this movie since I was a baby. I've been Irish Dancing fro 8 years, and Lord of the Dance certainly shows what we Irish Dancers love to do, and Michael Flatley did an amazing job of it! I enjoy this movie every time I watch it, it's fun, romantic, lively, and just BRILLIANT! The music is absolutely gorgeous!!! Come on guys, you have to give them credit for the way they danced and performed, they were amazingly accurate on all of the steps, and the taps sound so crisp. OK I agree with everyone who said the lighting is a bit hazy and bright, but come on, this was a LIVE CONCERT OUTSIDE!!! It's not gonna be some TOP Oscar AWARD WINNING MOVIE with like Peter Jackson as director is it, with perfect lighting and filming. Be realistic! But I encourage anyone who is interested in doing Irish Dancing, or someone who loves to dance or anyone who just wants to watch it, to watch it because it really is a good Irish dance movie!! I'd give it 11/10!!!
