Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour

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.

The theater I went to encouraged the audience to dance and sing along, which was unique for me since this was the first time I didn't have to sit silently in the movie theater.

Overall, The Eras Tour concert film is an enjoyable and entertaining experience for any music fan, but it will especially be a blast for Taylor Swift's fans. It is a well-made film that captures the essence and excitement of Swift's live shows. The film has good camera work, editing, and sound design that make the viewer feel like they are part of the concert.

However, at the end of the day, this is targeted at Swift's fans, so I think you have to be familiar with Taylor's catalogs to some degree to fully enjoy this. I noticed some viewers who seemingly just tagged along with their loved ones/friends losing enthusiasm and interest after a while since the film runs for almost three hours.

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.

Just to give you an idea from where I came from to write this review: I'm a head banger. I'm an Iron Maiden, Death, Kreator fan. I like heavy rift, yealling and impressive guitar solos...

Yet, I had a very good time enjoying this concert film. It is technically speaking the best concert show I've ever watched. Very good sound editing and camera angle shot. The movie is very immersive and provided the viewer with a unique up close point of view that uou would not get other wise.

As for the music, Taylor Swift have a wide range of musical genre that can please a lot of different group. She is a top notch performer that never missed a beat or a note.

And most importantly, she know what her fans want and she give them exactly that.

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.
