Leave your thoughts about Led Zeppelin: Celebration Day.
| Daily Telegraph (UK)Marc LeeCelebration Day is a celebration of rock 'n' roll at its most moving, magical and magnificent. |
| Cinema CrazedFelix Vasquez Jr.It's simply the threesome and Jason Bonham rocking hard for an audience of die hard fans. |
| WBAI RadioPrairie MillerA celebratory reunion experience clearly not just for all the Led Heads out there in the audience and beyond. But for the Zeppelin performers in their collaborative, exhilarating rock excursion down musical memory lane as well. |
| User ReviewTrevor ACelebration Day was an amazing show in several respects, worthy of multiple stars, too many to count, as many as the tears that eventually ran dry. These elders of the craft came back from the brink to deliver one last performance, to instruct us. Jimmy page was as fluid and flawed as ever, but finally I understood his genius. At once bullfighter and madman, his tone and attack remained perfectly on the mark until he decided to destroy it, with glee. Before I was distraught by this abandonment of order, but now that I've grown, and learned the guitar, these lost moments - the wild tempest brought out of its slumber by his mighty wah, slide, violin bow, theremin - only just held and check - are routinely called to manifest in a furious cacophony, then again tamed, slapped and coddled. These displays of wizardry break through the standing waves, leaving us to sort things out afterward. Recognizing the thing for what it was, I'm now convinced that these "artists" were, for me, the first break from the norm, the hairline crack in my illusory world that eventually fell through. These God's of my musical universe, whom I never had the chance to see live, a faded unfathomable myth who slumbered all of my adult years with ring wraiths and flowers in their hair, weren't content to lumber in the past. This was a resurrection, a final act, the magic recreated with modern equipment from a thousand angles; their gift to the world, the depth and beauty of the medium taken to its absolute end. How many stars? |

| User ReviewAnonymous UserIt should be hard for any true Zeppelin fan to find something they don't like here. Of course there are songs you might have wanted them to play, for instance, In Through the Outdoor is the only album unrepresented and I thought 'In the Evening' would have fit the sets perfectly or made a greater encore, but at least the ones they did select are well-rehearsed and spot on. They were really together on this and yet loose and cool with a strange energy cast. Indeed Jason Bonham has come as close as anybody at nailing Bonzo's obliterating, over-the-top drums, which were always the driving force of the band. It was plainly clear that they were having a good time, and that comes out in the performance. Jimmy Page's production is near flawless. Few people are as exacting as he when it comes to the matter of good sound and video. His playing is as great as ever, that tone-obsessed, in-between technique that so many people wish they could play like. John Paul Jones manages to shine as ever alternating bass and keyboards and probably makes fewer mistakes than anybody. But with real pros like Robert Plant, who is awesome in this, this band can literally play their way out of anything with little skid-mark. Phenomenal! |
| User ReviewTimothy GI can now say - I have seen Led Zeppelin live. And as big a fan as I've always been... I just had no idea how miraculous they really are live. |
| User ReviewMike PNot many movies leave me feeling as many different things as this one did... In essence, this was just a recording of a concert, but it was the reunion concert of a band I became a fan of 10 years after they split and I had been listening to for 20 years... So to see them play the tunes live left me in awe of what I'm now convinced was the best rock band of all time. The fact that they can still smash there modern day contemporaries off the park is a testament to the legends that are Led Zeppelin. This is one cinema experience that will stay with me for a very long time. :) |
| User ReviewJeff GI give it two thumbs up. Better than Cats. Also better than Dogs. |
