Though officially disbanded, Destiny's Child proves in this concert video why they're one of the most successful soul/R&B groups of all time. Filmed at Atlanta's Phillips Arena during their Destiny Fulfilled farewell tour, the trio pulled all the stops--short of flying over the audience--to put on a spectacular show for their fans. Opening the show with their Grammy-winning "Say My Name," the group--who famously sang while running around a track as girls to build their lung strength--belted their harmonies and runs while dancing through a medley of hits including "No, No, No," "Bugaboo," "Bills, Bills, Bills," "Bootylicious" and "Jumpin' Jumpin.'" The concert not only featured their greatest hits, but jammed in singles from their final album, Destiny Fulfilled. The girls sang the slinky "Cater 2 U" while giving lap dances to three lucky male audience members, while "Soldier" (with choreography that emulated Janet Jackson's "Rhythm Nation") included guest-star rappers T.I. and Lil' Wayne. The group closed with their anthem "Survivor," and the peppy "Lose My Breath" which featured a waterfall onstage that doused the singers.
To prove their mettle as solo artists, each member got their own segment to show off what they've accomplished outside of Destiny's Child. Both Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams have diverse and strong voices well-suited to their genres--soul/R&B and gospel, respectively--but it becomes clear when they're each alone on the stage that they don't have the solo prowess of dominant member Beyoncé Knowles, who tore through her hits "Crazy in Love," "Baby Boy," and "Naughty Girl" with sexy moves and an electric stage presence rarely matched by other soul divas. When she's joined by Rowland and Williams, Knowles melds back into Destiny's Child as an equal member, but it's clear this star's best days are still ahead of her. --Ellen A. Kim

Awesome Show!!,

This review is from: Live in Atlanta - Destiny's Child (DVD)
This show is great but the only thing I FROWN at is the fact that the show hasn't changed from their first tour. Other than that, the show was FANTASTIC!! There was so much creativity put into this show. You can certainly tell the girls put alot into this show. Kudos.

So Amazing,
This review is from: Live in Atlanta - Destiny's Child (DVD)
This DVD is just amazing. I won't drag it out going into detail about each song, but all of them were wonderful. The beginning of the DVD was amazing with the group doing all their old hits and I have to say that they performed them with a lot of energy, which made them more interesting to watch. All of the girl's solo songs were amazing, it shows that they all can really sing. I wish Kelly would have sung something else than dilemma since it really wasn't much of her singing. I also wish Michelle would have performed another song like Heard a Word too. She gets criticized so much about her voice but I have grown to love her voice. She delivers in her solo performance and Thru With Love to blow away the audience. As usual, Beyonce brings down the house. And basically the rest of the concert is amazing too, with them performing most of their current songs. What I love about DC the most is that they are not lip-syncers. Yes, I know sometimes they do do it, but a majority of the time they don't. This is a totally live concert with all of the versus sung live (the repetitive chorus parts are lip-synced, but really, who cares?) and I loved that aspect of the DVD.
Cons: There are very little cons that I have about this DVD. One of my main ones was the camera work. I know it was done this way to enhance the experience, but a little less might have been better.

Was expecting less - and got much more,
This review is from: Live in Atlanta - Destiny's Child (DVD)
First off, I'm NOT a huge Destiny's Child fan and I didn't rush right out and buy this dvd. But over the past few years I've enjoyed more than a few DC songs and when I had the chance to borrow this film I thought it might be interesting to see what the group does live.
It turned out to be a very entertaining evening. I was prepared to skip through large segments of the show, but I found myself captivated through most of the 2hour+ performance. Sure, there were spots that were totally over the top (Beyonce's extended entrance with Egyptian cortege, a scene that seemed to have absolutely nothing to do with the music), spots that made you scramble for the remote (Beyonce's extended "I love you" warbling to every section of the arena, three or four times over), and parts that seemed to repeat themselves without end ("Hey, Atlanta, how ya doin?"). But there were many more moments of surprise and delight, such as the girls being sprung up from below onto stage, Michelle's very powerful solo performance, a troupe of remarkable dancers, the Cater 2 U sequence (in which the girls sing and dance to three men pulled from the audience), and the Flamenco style version of Survivor. Your world won't be changed by Destiny's Child or this concert film. But sometimes a light diversion is just the thing you need to make life right.
