Too much of everything
Nice effects though.
I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
One word that describes these 3 musical brother's, Unbelievable!!!!!! From the moment i sat down and watched this DVD, till the very end, my jaw had dropped to the ground in amazement at how far these boys (or men shall we say....) have come. There is a difference between performing 'out there' and to an audience, indeed Hanson performs to there audience and has you totally sucked in by there brilliant harmony's and there stage presence.Musically speaking, a VERY good idea to play in an intimate setting rather than the big concert halls and stadiums they played in there earlier tours. Being so close to the artists (yes, i call these brother's artists) gives you the opportunity to see and hear the amount of passion they put into there songs and performance, if only all those anti-Hanson fans would pull there heads out of there butts and listen!!! I really don't want to give to much away so all i can say is this...... Isaac, Taylor and Zac are true to there art and all those who think Hanson are washed up and have been since the mmmbop days should really sit down and take a look at this DVD, not only will you be surprised but you will most probably find yourself humming 'if only' or basically ANY Hanson songs they performed in this show (even the covers) Well done Hanson!!!!
I've been with Hanson since they first came out with MMMBop. Yes, I am one of the many fans who stuck with them as we waited ... and waited ... and waited ... and then finally, tada - Underneath! Sadly, I never got to go to the Underneath Acoustic Live Show in my area, but I regretted not picking up this DVD at the 2 chances I got this past summer (2004). Finally, as soon as it hit the record store, I got it.Hanson's energy and emphasis for their music and fans shines straight through your television screen when you watch this movie.Definitely one of the best Hanson movies I've ever seen (and I've seen/own 'em all)
So you may remember them as "those mmmbop kids" but this DVD AND the brand new CD, Underneath, prove any preconceived notions are complete crap. But, back to the DVD.Hanson's live shows are terrific. Though this was an acoustic, broken down Hanson we've never seen, it had it's good elements: "Teach Your Children" when the band huddled around the microphone and harmonized. "Hand In Hand", Isaac's solo, when he began with insight into where the song came from. "Crazy Beautiful", Taylor's solo rendition of the band's usually upbeat number with jazzy elements. And then there was "The Walk", Zac's solo.Overall, this DVD is great. If you have any doubts the band is talented, this performance, or even one SONG will prove you wrong. So don't buy this if you can't handle that ;)
If you still think that Hanson consists of fourteen-year-old girls, you might want to get a reality check...and the perfect place to start is this DVD. Filmed live at Chicago's House of Blues in November 2003 (yes, I was there, but up in the dark balcony), it's a near-flawless concert showcasing the brothers' incredible musicianship. Covers of classic songs (CSN's "Teach Your Children", Bill Withers' "Ain't No Sunshine" and Little Richard's "Rip It Up") break up the chunks of Hanson originals. The picture and sound are wonderful as well.I can't praise this thing enough; do yourself a favor and check it out for yourself.
