Great concert with aweful editing and recording. May 2, 2010 mkeditor (Portland, OR USA) I am sure that this concert was amazing for those who were there but this has to be the most frustrating concert DVD I have ever watched. The film maker did an awful job of documenting the experience. There is no sense of context. Cuts are of extreme close up of a player's hand to a shot of the stage so far away I can't see the band. You have no idea whose hand that was. With a band that has something like 50 people, making sense of who is who is bad enough without having bad editing to deal with. I have no idea how many people are in that band because of the way it was edited. At times it was like watching a concert through a straw. You just can't see.
Actually, the film maker is obsessed with hands. Every 20 seconds there is a shot of either, a close up of a raised hand in the audience, the crowd with raised hands, a shot of the band through some hands, a silhouette of a hand or a player's hand. I bet that 15% of the footage on the DVD is hands.
Between most of the songs it turned into a dream sequence type edit, kind of like the end of the movie "The Natural" when Robert Redford hits the ball into the lights and he runs around the bases in slow motion. That is what the transitions between songs were turned into, which I am sure was not the case live.
The recording was wacky too. The guitar sounded like it was in the room but everything else sounded far away like that part was recorded out by the concessions, especially the vocals. This combined with the camera work made me feel very disconnected and isolated from experiencing the event.
I was really excited to see Hillsong but was let down by this DVD. I won't watch it again....but I hope to find a better live DVD of this band. They deserve better.
Hillsongs... March 23, 2010 jazdrumr (Bozeman, MT) I love Hillsongs, especially the United stuff. This is a well done DVD just like we are used to from Hillsongs, however it's a bit slow. The music is excellent as always, but the set is very slow and draggy. I can get being intimate with God and wanting to be ushered into His presence. This went there too fast, and I felt, well... left out. It's good, but not the best I've seen from them.

I own several Hillsong DVD's and CD's. I have enjoyed everything they have produced. This is my absolute favorite of everything I have seen. I play it more than any of my other DVD's. When you listen to the commentary you will understand why this worship service was so special and can touch your heart like no other. I am almost 60 years old and can't dance like they do, but they make me want to. I have only one problem with this DVD, I can't just put it on and walk away. I have to watch it. Buy it, you'll love it.
It's BOMB! June 5, 2009 Sarah Oh 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The songs in this album are sooo soul-wrenching. They really remind me every time I meditate on the words that JESUS really is EVERYTHING. If you actually look up the lyrics, you'll realize how powerful the words are. The songwriters are truly devout christians. That's why it's cool if you get the cd, cuz then you have the printout of all the lyrics to yourself right there!

14,000 worshippers, worshipping the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords in spirit and in truth! In my 29 years as a sold out to The Lord Christian I have never experienced God's anointing and manifest presence through the media such as this.
