Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
Lidia Draper
Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

A kick off to a sadly aborted concert tour (ticket sales lagged) and album debut, this mini-concert filmed in the CBS studio in L.A. is a fantastic re-visitation of some of ELO's best songs. Performed by an entirely different band, the music still keeps its energy and Jeff Lynn's unique sound. I found the cellists a great addition to the band; their sound may have been able to be synthesized or omitted entirely, but clearly Lynn understood their playing live gave the music that distinctive ELO touch. While I found only a few of the new songs from the Zoom album worth listening to, the concert as a whole is a wonderful collection, played expertly. Be sure to watch it with a good sound system (NOT through your TV's speakers!) and you won't be disappointed.

I bough this DVD on April, 2002, an I have watched it at least five times since then. The magnificent and empathic Jeff Lynne as the lead vocal, playing electric and acoustic guitars and having the gorgeous Rosie Vela as female voice, shows classics and new songs of the Electric Light Orchestra. It is amazing how he kept his wonderful voice along more than thirty years. The band has the company of fantastic musicians. The show has an outstanding stage and lighting, and the direction of Lawrence Jordan is perfect. It is very difficult to select the best songs, but I love the classic ones, like 'Do Ya', 'Evil Woman', 'Show Down', 'Strange Magic', 'Livin' Thing', 'Turn to Stone', 'Ma-Ma- Ma Belle', 'State of Mind', 'Can't get It Out of My Head', '10538 Overture' and 'Don't Bring me Down' (Wow, I have listed half of the songs...). One of the best shows on DVD ever. My vote is ten.Title (Brazil): 'Electric Light Orchestra: Zoom Tour Live'

ELO mastermind Jeff Lynne is accompanied by excellent musicians who seem to enjoy their job. Many of the classics and a lot of songs from the "zoom" album. Recorded in a TV Studio, picture quality and 5.1 dolby sound are very good. If you´re a fan you will love it.
