Instant Favorite.

Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

This show was so exhausting to watch and there's only two numbers "Drowned World/Substitute for Love" and "Paradise (Not for Me)" where you can sit down and just contemplate it all. The opening of this show will go down in history as the most visually thrilling as Madonna enters the stage via a gigantic Swarovski crystal ball that comes down from the ceiling, and the huge screens from behind it show images of horses galloping. Horses play a role in this show due to Madonna falling off one. The infamous scene with Madonna on the cross is in this show as a huge screen counts to 12 million the number of how many African children are orphaned due to HIV/AIDS. At the end a website address comes up for anyone interested in donating. We then go into the theme of the environment, and again images of politics and religion are shown. There's an interlude and then the show starts again to the music of "I Love New York" and "Ray of Light" this part of the show is one of my favourites with the dancers doing there funny hand movements.Towards the end there's the "Music" number with the song "Disco Inferno" mixed in with the song and the dancers make more of there presence known. The ending again is full of energy as the show wraps up to the tunes of "Lucky Star" and "Hung Up", and hundreds of golden balloons fall from the ceiling at the end the message "Have you confessed?" comes up.The DVD is worth buying, and the soundtrack was added as a bonus.

Madonna has been rocking the boat for over 20 years, and with that comes a lot of experience -obviously- and a lot of knowledge. She was never the one to think about yesterday, au contraire, she seemed to know what is going to be popular tomorrow. She bravely takes all the new trends, technologies, and incorporates them into her own acts. Her world tours have never been 'average'. When Madonna performs, she gives 120% - everything is bigger, better, theatrical and meaningful. She takes inspirations from East, West, and makes then unique. Everything is given a deeper meaning, and The Confessions Tour is not different. From the very beginning, you find yourself sitting on the edge of the chair. She starts with bang, then she does brave circus poses on a horse high up in the sky, she does everything she can to entertain you. She remakes her own songs, giving them a modern feel. She sings on a disco cross, she almost comes in the middle of the stage, and with her amazing dance crew that know no dimensions of fear, the show is absolutely more than you bargained for. It's a spectacle, an audio-visual orgasm that cannot be put in words. Lucky are the ones who actually experienced seeing Madonna on stage. Pushing fifty, she is still in an incredible form. Recent Sticky and Sweet Tour is even more ground-breaking, which proves nothing else, that Madonna was, is, and ever be the one and the only queen of pop.

Years ago, with "Ray of Light," Madonna broke through to a truly amazing level of musical artistry, and since then she's occasionally transcended even her own standards. This concert production, with its hypnotic editing, amazing dancing, hallucinatory lighting effects, and trance-inducing arrangements, blows away all previous efforts. Madonna's apparent ambition -- to single-handedly bring about world peace through music and dance -- may seem hubristic or absurd to some. But hell, somebody's got to do it! Thanks to her assemblage of the remarkable talent of everyone involved in this production, "Confessions Tour Live from London" places her once again among the top ten artists working anywhere in the world in any medium.

As I watch Madonna on TV I'm shaking my head. The camera director must be on something. The cameras kept changing every few seconds. It was making me dizzy. Madonna's songs had that same beat. I liked her MTV videos a lot better. The scene was dark. In the beginning of her show, what's up with the horses? That's just the first hour. The special effects were redundant. It's all flashy. I just want to see Madonna sing her songs. I didn't know she could play the guitar. Or is she actually playing it. I have two more lines to write. That's the minimum. All I wanted to write is about the camera shots. Just saw the camera aimed at her gyrating hips, again. This is my tenth line. Excuse my ranting and raving.
