Best movie of this year hands down!
A Brilliant Conflict
Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast
View MoreGreat story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
View MoreOh my god I honestly don't know where to start. My husband laughed at me for wanting this, but I won & got it. This video is full of laughs, tears, memories, all in one. 30 years & still going strong Barry captures the fans & pulls on your strings all over again . And he shares some private stuff like his memories of growing up in Brooklyn Ny & a record of him & his grandfather. Not to mention he sings a duet with a fan name Michelle (who honestly I thought she would have a stroke on stage). All in all I'm willing to bet that most of the votes on here are from woman, If you are into early Manilow or just looking for a trip down the 1970's lane then this is for you. If you love " Mandy, this ones for you, daybreak, even now, cant smile with out," or you wanna see a concert where fans join in, this movie is for you. If you never been to a Manilow concert & wanna see him before he dies, this movie is for you. My vote 10 stars out of 10. And just so you know I'm female & this bought up so many memories I found myself crying to these songs :)
View MoreFor those of us who grew up during the 70's, Barry Manilow and his music were a big part of our lives. It's true that Barry's music doesn't appeal to everyone. Over the years he's had to contend with critics who labelled his music as trite, and some in the public who simply wanted to brand anyone admitting to being a Barry fan as "uncool". Fan's of Barry Manilow will love this DVD. "Manilow Live!", features most of Barry's best known and loved songs. The backing musicians and orchestra do an excellent job, with many of the live productions here sounding as good as, or better than their studio counterparts. Music aside, the best part of this film/documentary is watching this talented performer. It's hard not to be impressed by the showmanship, energy and honesty that Barry brings to his live performances. Watching the expression on his face during "All the time" and "Even now", it's easy to see the very real depth of emotion that Barry feels about the lyrics he's singing. Considering the countless times he's performed these songs on stage, it's amazing that he is still able to convey such a genuine passion in his work. If you've never heard of Barry Manilow, I invite you to give it a try. Perhaps like me, you'll come away incredibly well entertained by a man who remains one of the best showmen in the business. 9/10
