Written and directed by Andrew Adamson ("Shrek," "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe"), and executive produced by Academy Award-winning filmmaker James Cameron, the 3D film event features artistic and acrobatic performances from some of the most elaborate Cirque du Soleil productions. The film was produced by Adamson, Aron Warner, Cirque's Martin Bolduc and Ed Jones and Cary Granat . Vince Pace oversaw the 3D stereo production aspect of the film. (texte officiel du distributeur)

Jusqu'à la trentième minute environ, captivant et hypnotique, mais plutôt ennuyeux et long pour le reste. Je recommande plutôt des enregistrements de performances en direct, ils ont plus de punch et d'énergie.

It is hard for me to criticize anything about the scene, it is inventive and makes great use of costumes, mechanisms, and acrobatics. However, the problem this time is in the music. The first half, which is slightly longer, has ethnic and even choral music, and then suddenly, boom! The Beatles. This was unexpected and a bit out of place. It did not fit in at all. I love Beatles songs, but here they are used somewhat unnecessarily. I assume it is a reference to the show "Beatles LOVE," which Cirque also has in its repertoire, but here it just interrupts the flow of the first half. However, I hope that Cirque will bring "Beatles LOVE" to us as well, since we already had Michael Jackson here. The director, though, continues to be the main culprit for the film's failure. They simply failed to handle their job and got carried away with the acrobatic tricks without adding something of their own, something extra.
