5.0 out of 5 stars Very Welcome Homecoming, August 18, 2008

By

This review is from: White Diamond/Homecoming (DVD)

Have to say at the get go, that I'm a little perplexed by some of the reviews - don't really know what some people were expecting - If you've really followed Kylie's career, you'd know that very little or no comments are made about her being problematic, Diva-like or prone to yelling and screaming. Maybe the fact is, she is just very normal and natural and that the candid on camera talks with William and the collapsing with exhaustion is all we haven't really seen before. Does Kylie really need to be screaming hysterically and crying uncontrollably for this to be "warts 'n all"? I'm loving the fact that she was just ordinary - without staged tantrums or ramblings ala Madonna or Elton in their docos.

Absolutely loved this - really does just show her as a normal as possible person despite her life in focus.

As for the bonus concert, again confused by some reviews, I always seem to love each concert more than the last - but having seen Homecoming live, then finally seeing it again here - I've really appreciated how much more relaxed and stress-free she appears on stage. Her previous shows, whilst still engaging the audience, have been very focussed and machine-like. True to her word, Kylie has taken the time to reflect and enjoy the moment - you only have to watch the few re-edits of some songs from UK Showgirl in the extras to see how strained Kylie appeared previously - of course we all know there were other factors present here.

Above all - fantastic DVD for dedicated or casual fans - doco really does goes beyond the backstage glimpses of previous concert DVDs - if only that you see Kylie as an 'ordinary' - funny, uncomfortable at times, person - if you're expecting some sort of expose - you won't really get it - maybe because there isn't really anything more to see!

On a side note - some of the jazz-style, over-doco songs sung by Kylie, are just beautiful - even the harshest critics would surely be surprised by her perfect handling of this style.

5.0 out of 5 stars Kylie Minogue's Homecoming DVD concert, February 7, 2010

As a huge Kylie Minogue fan,I couldn't wait to see this 2 disc set.Disc 1 is the 'White Diamond' full length director's cut version.It is a 2 hour documentary of Kylie's return to the stage after her battle with breast cancer.I was both sad and happy to see her struggle and move forward with her recovery.It was quite inspiring to see her as a cancer survivor and get back to doing what she does best which is sing, perform and entertain her fans. Disc 2 is the 'Showgirl Homecoming Tour concert' taped live in Melbourne,Australia December 11th,2006. The concert is about 2hrs and 20 mins long. The show is another greatly produced concert with amazing costumes,choreography, musicians,lights and Kylie sings all her hits.The concert is quite an emotional journey for Kylie and you can sense that when at one point she thanks her fans for "sticking" with her and supporting her. I couldn't help but cry at this point. It was great to see her back on stage not quite a 100% but giving it her best shot.
Even if you are not a Kylie Minogue fan, I totally recommend this 2 disc Dvd. You will not be disappointed if you like great music and an amazing live show.

1.0 out of 5 stars US Buyers Beware!!!, December 24, 2008

If you live in the US and are considering purchasing a copy as listed; DON'T!!! The item is actually PAL and not region coded for US viewing. The reviews so far have been misleading as to who can view it. And the listing has it as being US/Canada release, which was brought to Amazon's attention for correction 3 weeks ago. The average US household does not have a multi-region DVD player nor will most US computers/laptops play the disc. Just hoping to save other US Kylie fans any disappointment!!
