A musical documentary showcasing the teen stars performing in front of their legions of fans at Madison Square Garden amongst other locations in America.
Dragged to see this by my best friend, I found it hard to express much enthusiasm, a emotion made much harder as the credits rolled and the American trio were awoken by their colleague and are all acting like the egotistical stars that their reputations seem to cement them as.
What intrigued me however was how this film would be any more exciting in 3D rather in normal viewing. Perhaps used as a device to bring people into the cinema for the ultimate experience of spending extra money to gain a headache from the ridiculous looking spectacles, who knows, and it goes without saying that in the grand scheme of current proceedings, making this in 3D will not break minds.
Monsters vs Aliens, Up! And up and coming every other film is to be showcased with the extra charge of the spectacles so we will be looking for outstanding experiences for our money and this 2009 release doesn't give much for its so proclaimed diversity.
Having heard the odd song by the teen sensations, I must admit my expectations were not high once the first song rolled around and Nick Jonas did this funny little twirl to make him look like he had back pain or something but oddly, as the film progressed there was an undeniable uplifting. Of course the beginning was so atrocious it could not have been any worse but it is hard to deny that the continuous use of positive songs and odd excellent sweeping shot of the arena is beneficial to the fans of the pop stars.
But as with most pop acts in recent times, the songs became one with similar beats and a continuous repetitious use of ideologies in their own lyrics. The inclusion of Demi Lovato and Taylor Swift sparked initial interest before their songs came to sound similarly like their co-acts.
What is really bad however about this "film" is the portrayal of the brothers. At first being awoken just makes them lazy, then the ridiculous run across town chased by fans who happen to have the "I love you Jonas Brothers" signs handy as if ever going to run into them, makes them inappreciable of their target audience. One moment they turn up to buy their new album, where all their fans are gathered, and then leave without signing or making a speech or anything. After seeing this particular snippet of their day to day lives, it is hard to like even their odd good song.
Living in England, I am unaware of the hype surrounding the Brothers in America, but found it hard to believe they are that much appreciated in their own backyard. Whether déjà vu or not, you may even see some similar faces in the audiences at various events, which to me made it all staged for a so called "documentary". This really was a no go experience, made to justify the "fan base" and waste our money on the glasses.
