The Fly
So U23D has finally come to Sweden. I saw it last night. My thoughts are:
It was good but not great.
I was not blown away. I expected more. I expected to feel like I was "onstage" or something. But all it was was an edited Vertigo Tour show shot in 3D. The songs they chose for the movie were predictable if not boring.
The crowd for the show was great though. In fact the crowd shots were some of the most interesting.
Could anyone tell me if any of the following could have affected my experience?
1. I was a little drunk.
2. I sat in the row in a stadium seating movie theater
3. The screen wasn't too big.
4. The sound wasn't loud enough.
5. I have seen and/or heard U2 perform about a billion times, either live, on TV, or online
I was a little disappointed because I have been looking forward to this for a long time. A friend who saw it at an IMAX theater said it was incredible.
Anyone have anything to say about any of this?
