Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour

Taylor did a splendid job by dropping this film and I really loved the film. I've always wanted to be in her concert but this movie made me so happy that I actually felt like I was standing inside the crowd screaming. All the background singers and dancers made a fabulous job. The entire film is so energetic and felt so good. I would suggest this movie to all age group of people and family audience. This film breaks all the marks set by Hollywood and exceled. Taylor swift performing in a high pitch and all the colors with amazing albums make the film so satisfying. As a Swiftie I love this film and will watch multiple times.

I didn't know what to expect as I am an older guy out on a date with my wife. We first noted that every girl was dressed up and was just so happy. When the film started, there was an excitement I've never experienced. Everyone was so happy. The film started and we soon realized this would be different than anything we've experienced. As soon as the music started, every girl in the theater started to sing. And, I mean sing loud. We looked at each other and wondered if it was just the first song. Nope. It wasn't the first song as it would be every single song after that. I've never experienced anything like this in a theater. It was so much fun and highly recommended.

I am not a Taylor Swift fan, but I was curious to watch this given the high ratings. I went in without expectations and was greatly impressed by the concert, quality of camera work, costumes, set design, and impressive level of crowd participation. For a concert film, the production value is spectacular and credit is due to the excellent direction by Sam Wrench. The dancers here are really talented and she surely is a great live performer. Highly recommended even if you may not consider yourself a Swift enthusiast.

There were a few standout moments for me in terms of songs. Anti-Hero had the best songwriting on display, objectively. Love Story is definitely a good song even if she was tonally flat for a good portion of it. Cruel Summer is a great track. She tapped into something nice there.

However, I can't help but find that her lyrics come across as somewhat corny, often incredibly basic, and her performance feels sometimes unauthentic, never reachinhg greatness. She's having trouble hitting vocal notes for someone who's supposed to be the most powerful pop star right now. Kudos for not using live Autotune, though, like most artists out there right now, or lip-syncing to her own backing tracks.

Set rankings:

1) Anti-Hero 2) Cruel Summer 3) We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together 4) Love Story.

My wife is an ENORMOUS Taylor Swift fan and we've been trying to get tickets to see this concert for months. Suffice to say, when tens of millions of people across Canada are also trying, it's not very easy. Taking her to see this was a treat, even if our theatre was kind of quiet and lame. We genuinely expected more of a concert vibe, but unfortunately, even the amazing staff at our cinema, who tried their hardest to hype people up, couldn't do it.

To say that this concert really fits the cinematic experience would be an understatement. You don't have to love TS (although, 17 years of making music, there has to be a couple songs you know...admit it), but this concert does a phenomenal job of showcasing what makes her special. The sets, the outfits, the distinct visual and sonic style of the Eras...let's just say, the whole room shimmers.

Taylor is an incredible performer and has amazing stage presence. She simultaneously feels like a a girl sitting on the bleachers and trouble as soon as she walks in. Her outfits gleam in the Los Angeles night and she commands the room in a way few artists do. For the film specifically, the cinematography is honestly fantastic and not only makes you feel as it you're on stage with her, but allows you take in the enormity of the moment too

Don't what else to say, if you're a Swifty, you belong in a theatre watching this thing. If you're not, you'll be enchanted to meet her.

(And yes, this concert did what all great concerts do. Make you appreciate the artist even more. I'm a soft Swifty now.)

I am hardly what I would consider to be in the "Taylor Swift" demographic. A man past 70. But a female friend of mine liked it, and I like music so I went to see it tonight.

This is called the "Eras Tour" because the 3 hour show is divided into the various eras of her songwriting, with different stage sets and dress for each "era".

I read a few weeks ago, in the WSJ of all places, a bit about her tour - requiring 50 semis to carry all of the stage equipment from city to city. I was thinking just of the logistics and of all the people "behind the scenes" who put all of this together.

When you see the show, you wonder how they could do all of this in 50 trucks.

This was filmed at the last stop of her tour, the Sofi Stadium in Inglewood, CA.

It was sold out.

The visuals are spectacular, the costumes, sets, and of course her music.

And you are right on stage with her.

It isn't simply a recording of the show with 2 or 3 cameras angles but a very well thought out production and with a mystery to me, not an external camera in sight as you see various angles of the massive stage.

Very well done in all respects.
