It’s me, hi. I’m the movie reviewer, it’s me.
Seeing this in IMAX was definitely the right call. The film itself is breathtaking, and truly an artist at the height of her power. I honestly don’t know how she tops this one. The design, the performance, the connection… it’s the definition of “firing on all cylinders.”
Seeing it in IMAX allowed it to drown out the people trying to sing like it was an actual concert, and the projector’s brightness somehow overpowered the idiots turning their phone lights on towards the screen, again like it was an actual concert. I applaud the enthusiasm, but they were making every attempt to ruin the cinematic experience of the thing. The only complaint about the film is that they demoted “Long Live” to the song over the credits, which is sacrilege.
