If you were one of the handful of folks who missed Celine Dion's mega-run in Las Vegas, fear not: Celine Dion: A New Day is a riveting, sumptuous front-row seat to the whole extravagant experience. As concert DVDs go, this is a show of a lifetime, nearly six hours featuring not only no-expenses-spared production values and every song from Dion's famed show, but priceless extras as well. Dion's substantial voice is in fine form, and sparkles on signature tunes like "A New Day Has Come," "The Power of Love," and of course the theme from Titanic, "My Heart Will Go On" (and Dion-watchers will note that she's thankfully dialed back the breast-beating that used to accompany this song).

But as impressive as the performances are--and they include the talented gymnasts, dancers, and backup singers who work as a Cirque du Soleil-style ensemble--the set's most memorable moments are found in the personal footage and extras. Dion comes across as truly humble and approachable, with a wicked sense of humor and real compassion for her hard-working staff and her fans. There are sweet, intimate moments of Dion with her husband and son, as well as telling scenes that show her true resourcefulness (girlfriend does her own makeup!). The many docs include one on the building of her special theater and the building of the show from the ground up. "If you're going to gamble," says Dion's manager and husband, Rene Angelil, "Vegas is the place to do it." Ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner. --A.T. Hurley

5 out of 5 stars Totally AWESOME, even for GUYS!!   October 8, 2008
OMG!!! This is absolutely the BEST thing I've seen EVER! I actually ran out and bought a Blu-Ray DVD player JUST FOR THIS!! I had to! I am a HUGE fan of Celine. And yes, I am a guy. I took my wife to her last concert in Boston a month or two ago and it just turned me on! I think she is FABULOUS and this DVD showcases every inch of her OUTSTANDING TALENT. I play guitar, have season tix to the Comcast Center, so I know a lot about music. I can't say enough good things about it. I run my own high tech company north of Boston and don't have a boss so I can get away with this: I took a day off last week, made a TON OF POPCORN, and WATCHED THIS DVD over and over again. I felt like a little boy skipping school and sneaking a peek at dirty magazines. Hee-hee!!

Seriously, buy this DVD, it's INCREDIBLE!



5 out of 5 stars CELINE DEON at her BEST and her VEGAS SHOW is now on this HD Blu-ray Disc w/HDMI and 5.1 HD Home Theatre is a MASTERPIECE!   October 7, 2008
Welcome to the incredible world of Blu-ray Disc Concerts. Only to be completely appreciated with the sum of ALL necessary components to carry this technology off!

My Qualifying Statement: I have a HD Home Theater weighing in at about $2000 plus movies. The breakdown; a Mitsubishi HD Projector (HC-1500) $800 (orig $1495), a Sony PLAYSTATION 3 with built-in Blu-ray player $399 (orig $499) and a Sony Blu-ray w/HDMI HD Home Theater Sound System (HT-SS2300) $399 (orig $499). (see my Reviews) Sony High Speed HDMI cables $150 (orig $180) and HD Sreen Paint and kit for my 108" viewing wall screen $180. With this true HD 1080p (1920x1080 lines) and 5.1 Dolby Cinema Souns I've assembled a HD Home Theater with sight and sound equal to an IMAX (on a smaller scale) presentation.

With this consideration and background information provided I can now comment on this Blu-ray Disc version of CELINE DEON A New Day. Mastered in Full HD 1080p and 5.1 Dolby Digital Sound we can now completely enjoy and witness this bigger than life personality perform her magic on the immense Las Vegas stage with over 50 skilled artists supporting her musical mastery. Celine Deon is the most talented female singer of our time and this Blu-ray Disc has brought the grandeur and majestry of pure music delight to our HD Home Theater. For the first time her music and her elegant voice has filled our ears so wonderfully.

This 2 disc set gives us hours of music, behind the scenes and a day in Celine's life which is so amazing.

So sit back and watch this most beautifully choreographed Vegas Show with the most talented voice of our time. Many encore viewings will occur with this Blu-ray Disc Set. A must have addition to your musical concert library. Enjoy.




5 out of 5 stars Celine on Blu-Ray...breathtaking and a siren   October 7, 2008
I popped in the Blu-Ray just gonna listening to a couple of songs and ended up finishing the whole concert because it was that good. The concert was not boring...only a handful of her many hits...highly recommended.

The DVD itself...Audio Quality is a 5/5, Picture Quality a 4/5 (but still very good.)



5 out of 5 stars Almost better than being there!!!   September 26, 2008
Disk #1 is all footage from her Las Vegas show...very nice...almost like being there.

Disk #2 is a "backstage pass", which documents what is going on backstage in "real time" (i.e. with a split screen, interviews with crew and dancers, etc). It has some very funny footage on how Celine acts with her dancers, crew and "inner circle"...not like a diva, but like a real person with a sense of humor.

Highly recommend is you're a Celine Dion fan.
