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

 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.
 bad disk September 22, 2008
I purchased on feb 10 ,08 was a great video until recently started hanging up and now will not play at all. I guess no warantee coverage?The second disk plays fine so it is not my player.I guess ill have to purchase another one since I liked it so much and hope it is made better.

Celine Dion remains, as always, one of the worst things to happen to music since major record labels.
Love this DVD September 6, 2008
I loved the dvd. I wish that I could have gone to see her in LV.
Queen of lipsynching extravaganza August 26, 2008
0 out of 2 found this review helpful
First of all, I am (well, was) a big big Celine Dion Fan.
The reason why I am giving this DVD a low rating is that fact (not an assumption, fact) that Celine Dion is lipsynching a significant part of her show (also on her current "Taking chances"-tour).
Lipsynched are:
- The power of love (after the first verse which is live)
- Its all coming back to me now
- The power of love
- I drove all night
- River deep mountain high
- My heart will go on
The whole issue starts to come out, a belgium newspaper had that "scandal" in their news lately, they also let some experts listen to the tapes, and they said that it is impossible for any singer to sing a song with the exact same timing (broken down to the second), exact same high notes every time, over and over again.
This is being discussed heavily on a lot of internet forums, people show "proof-videos" where they put so-called "live"-perfomances from Celine next to each other.
Though Las Vegas is considered as a big success for Celine - at least financially - I don't think it was a good step for her artistical direction.
Singing the same songs over and over again, five times a week, in the same old arrangements, partly even playback, didn't do Celines artistical appearance any favour.
And this direction is being continued during her current tour.
I give this DVD one star as people pay a fortune to hear Celine LIVE, not old prerecorded tracks.
If you are ready for Celine - PARTLY Live in Vegas, go and buy the DVD.
