The excitement of seeing the Jonas Brothers live in concert is hard to beat, but this digital 3-D concert presentation is the next best thing to being there. Basically a collection of highlights from the Burnin' Up concert tour, the film features live concert footage of hit songs including "That's Just the Way We Roll," "Gotta Find You, "Video Girl," "S.O.S," and "Burnin' Up" with pyrotechnics, water effects, and the occasional questionable harmony and out-of-breath lyric. Demi Lovato joins the Jonas Brothers for "This Is Me," Taylor Swift presents "Should've Said No," and Big Rob even makes a brief singing appearance. Also included is the never-before-released song "Love Is On Its Way." Viewers get the best seats in the house thanks to the realism of the 3D format and a nice mix of up-close, on-stage, and above-stage camera angles combined with wider crowd shots. Augmenting the experience is just the right amount of backstage footage of the Jonas Brothers doing everything from waking up in the morning to braving the screaming crowds of fans at midnight on album release day and even changing clothes between concert sets. This film is very similar to Hannah Montana's Best of Both Worlds Concert 3-D Movie, in which the Jonas Brothers' made a guest appearance, but this production offers somewhat improved sound and better transitions between concert and backstage footage.

5.0 out of 5 stars A concert on Blu-ray that the fans of the Jonas Brothers will truly enjoy!, July 4, 2009

By	Dennis A. Amith (kndy) (California) - See all my reviews (TOP 100 REVIEWER)

The Jonas Brothers are the hottest boy band in America.

With a large legion of fans, the group which consists of brothers Kevin, Joe and Nick, the Jonas Brothers have accomplished many things in their last three years since the release of their first album.

The group debuted on Columbia Records INO Records (a Christian Label) in 2006 and eventually received airplay on Nickelodeon's "Zoey 101: Spring Break-Up" and various Disney soundtrack and compilations. Despite the group starting to gain momentum, the group was dropped by Columbia Records and had no label until signing with Hollywood Records in 2007. And received more attention when they appeared on an episode of "Hannah Montana" and the group were playing at major televised events.

But it was until the group released their third album "A Little Bit Longer" in 2008 which gained mainstream attention (and #40 on Rolling Stone Magazine's top 50 albums in the US) and the group had their own Disney film "Camp Rock" which featured the trio with another upcoming Disney Channel starlet Demi Lovato. The group also received the spotlight on the front cover of Rolling Stone Magazine.

Needless to say, the Jonas Brothers have become popular and Disney began filming their concert tour in the Summer of 2008, preparing the film for a 3D release and starring both popular actress/pop star Demi Lovato and popular country singer Taylor Swift.

"JONAS BROTHERS - THE 3D CONCERT EXPERIENCE" came out in theaters on February 2009.

The film was directed by Bruce Hendricks (producer of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" films and "Pearl Harbor") and cinematography by Mitchell Amundsen ("G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra", "Wanted", "Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert Tour", "Transformers"and "Transporter 2) and Reed Smoot "Circque du Soleil: Journey of Man", "Mystery of the Nile" and "Mummies: Secrets of the Pharaohs").

Needless to say, when it comes to idol-based music films or concerts, they are literally targeted towards their fandom and demographic. Those not familiar with the Jonas Brothers or care for their music are probably not going to have much of an interest in the film. But for those who do enjoy the group's music, "JONAS BROTHERS - THE 3D CONCERT EXPERIENCE: DELUXE EXTENDED MOVIE" is actually an enjoyable release. First off, you get four 3D glasses and you can enjoy the film in either its 3D or 2D presentation via Blu-ray. You get the DVD and a digital copy for a total of 3-Discs.

The following songs are featured in "JONAS BROTHERS - THE 3D CONCERT EXPERIENCE":

1. "Tonight" (Intro/Opening Credits)
2. "That's Just the Way We Roll"
3. "Hold On"
4. "BB Good"
5. "Goodnight and Goodbye"
6. "Video Girl"
7. "Gotta Find You"
8. "This Is Me" (Demi Lovato & Jonas Brothers)
9. "Hello Beautiful"
10. "Still In Love With You"
11. "Pushin' Me Away"
12. "Should've Said No" (Taylor Swift & Jonas Brothers)
13. "Love Is on Its Way"
14. "S.O.S."
15. "Burnin' Up"

Additional performances featured on the DVD Extended Version

16. "Can't Have You"
17. "A Little Bit Longer"

For the film, you get a good balance of concert and also other activities such as the guys picking up the release of their third album, the fake Jonas Brothers and a lot of footage of their hardcore fans. Also, the group performing with their band outdoors and backstage footage.

In terms of concert footage, having reviewed many concert releases on DVD, you often wonder how a concert looks like when it has a significant budget, this is a good example. There are cameras everywhere. Multiple angles, closeups, front, sideways, behind the band, above the band in a various angles you name it, there's a camera. Editor Michael Tronick (Editor for "Hudson Hawk","Bedtime Stories", "Days of Thunder", "S.W.A.T.", "Mr. and Mrs. Smith) did an absolutely great job with the cut footage. No dizzying quick cuts, gives the viewer time to adjust and enjoy the ambiance of the crowded concert with its many fans and their light sticks. The group and band with their constant movement throughout the stage. It's well done!

The lighting is well done and very good lighting from purple, pinks, greens, blues, ambers. And again, the larger production budget definitely shows with the stage set-up.

As for the 3D portion, I'm not the biggest fan of 3D because seldom does it work effectively (with the exception of the 3D shows I have seen at Disneyland) but for "JONAS BROTHERS - THE 3D CONCERT EXPERIENCE", for the most part, the 3D works. From Nick Jonas throwing a drum stick to the drummer and Taylor Swift flicking her guitar pick towards the camera. Those instances were enjoyable.

For the most part, 3D is used to show the audiences arms and light sticks and moreso, bringing out the performers and giving a visual depth when Joe Jonas is seen at the front and everyone is seen directly behind. Also, 3D is used quite a bit during the scenes with cast and crew credits. Also, seeing flames from the stage, the mic and mic stand right by you.

Where it's not effective is certain shots where you can see lines on the faces (for example, during the Jonas Brothers performance with Demi Lovato) during the 3D portion. And this happens a few times during the film. But for the most part, the 3D does work and some scenes that were quite effective. I had a few people with varying eyesight test out the 3D glasses during the play of the concert and interesting enough, each person had different experiences with the one with better eyesight feeling that everything was much more alive and coming out to them visually.

Of course, for those who don't care for 3D can select 2D on the Blu-ray disc and also, the 2D version is included on the optional DVD and digital copy.

VIDEO & AUDIO:

"JONAS BROTHERS - THE 3D CONCERT EXPERIENCE: DELUXE EXTENDED MOVIE" is featured in 1080p High Definition (1:85:1). Of course, quality is a non-issue during the 3D portion but for the 2D portion included, the film is quite vibrant in colors. As mentioned above, there is a lot of lighting in this concert and colors really come out quite well in this film. If there is one thing that I'm always confident from a release from Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment, every Blu-ray release has had solid picture quality and this film is no exception.

Colors come out quite well during the concert, audience faces can be seen from a distance, blacks are nice and deep. No low-light noise, overall for a concert related release, this is probably one of the best looking concerts I have seen on Blu-ray but considering not many concerts are shot with this large of a budget and is shown as a feature film.

And the audio is fantastic. Disney went for the 7.1 English DTS-HD Master Audio. So you have the front channels delivering the music and vocals. The rear surrounds delivering the audience. Great use of LFE as my subwoofer was being used during the concert. It's an immersive soundtrack and if I had to really nitpick, I wish the explosions had a little more kick but overall, the concert presentation given the DTS-HD Master Audio track was quite exceptional.

SPECIAL FEATURES:

"JONAS BROTHERS - THE 3D CONCERT EXPERIENCE: DELUXE EXTENDED MOVIE" comes with a few special features. Included are:

* BONUS SONGS of "LOVE BUG" and "SHELF" - Both the Blu-ray and DVD feature two performances not included in the extended version of the film. "LOVE BUG" (3:41) features the group rehearsing and practicing with their band and goofing around. And then shots of the group performing live in concert with the band. "SHELF" (4:25) features the group performing live.
* BACKSTAGE DISNEY: Up Close & Personal with the Jonas Brothers - (15:09) An in-depth look at the Jonas Brothers as they recall the challenges they had in their career and remembering how they performed at small venues two years ago and now they are performing at larger venues. How they planned the stage along with their crew and working together with everyone (musicians and crew) and treating them like a family. Working with Rob Brenner (Tour Director) and a behind-the-scenes look at rehearsals and challenges they had to face. Promotional tours and being thankful to their fans. An enjoyable featurette.
* Dylan & Cole Sprouse: Blu-ray is Suite (DVD Only) - (5:57) A promotional by the "Suite Life with Zack and Cody" stars promoting Blu-ray.

JUDGMENT CALL:

I've reviewed many concerts on DVD and beginning to review more on Blu-ray but I have to say that this release is quite solid. The Jonas Brothers and their music may not be for everyone but for fans, this is a solid release. It's well-produced, well-edited and again, not may concerts get the higher production (nor do they get a feature film and featured in 3D). You get one of the best looking concerts on Blu-ray with a pretty awesome soundtrack.

For fans of the Jonas Brothers, you really can't go wrong with "JONAS BROTHERS - THE 3D CONCERT EXPERIENCE: DELUXE EXTENDED MOVIE". Disney went all out in giving fans the 2D and 3D version on Blu-ray, plus the Extended Movie on DVD and the DisneyFile Digital Copy.

Personally, I thought it was a well-done concert. Watching a male pop band doing acrobatics during their performance might not be for everyone but having reviewed many female and male idol concerts from Japan and other parts of world, this is pretty standard, so I was not put off by it at all.

Also, I am aware of the negative reviews from... Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 stars Rockin' Good Time!, February 28, 2009

By	Rebekah R. (Oklahoma, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Jonas Brothers: The 3-D Concert Experience [Theatrical Release] (Theatrical Release)

The Jonas Brothers (The 3D Concert Experience) is a great hour and fifteen minutes of fun.

The movie is basically a taped performance of one of the concerts on their Burning Up tour. It has the addition of many behind the scenes shots with the guys, their family, band, fans and of course, "Big Rob!"
With spacial guest appearances of Demi Lovato and Taylor Swift.
Plus they have a new song you can only see in the movie!

The movie is 3D, and what an amazing new 3D it is! You will really feel like you are on stage with the band. Plus this new 3D(called True 3D) doesn't hurt your eyes or give you a headache! Which is a plus because 3D movies of the past have always given me a headache.

The movie is a great companion to one of their concerts, (I had the pleasure of seeing them back in July '08). It may not be quite as exciting as seeing them live, but it's still a close 2nd. If you can't afford to see them live, or you missed them, the movie is well worth it! I enjoyed the movie even after seeing them live, because I could actually see them!

In the end my only complaint would be that the volume wasn't loud enough, but that might have been the fault of the theater and not the movie itself.

The show is exciting, well made and very cool! You and your kids will love it!

4.0 out of 5 stars Not bad at all..., July 25, 2009

By	Jadecat (Lake Orion, MI United States) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase

I gave this to my daughter for her birthday, and figured I would go blu ray with the 3D...hoping it would work. She watched it when she had a sleepover and they started out with the 3D version, but one of her friends had trouble with the glasses, so they went back to 2D. Although by that time they were half way through the movie. As they were watching it, I would hear all the girls singing to the songs and enjoying the movie. The next day she watched it in 3D and it was really neat how the 3D version worked. I expected some cheesy 3D stuff, but it looked excellent on the screen. Now, the whole movie doesn't play in 3D, so you end up taking your glasses off now and then. From what I saw, the 3D version works fine as do the glasses, I just think the one sleepover guest didn't want to bother with them.
My daughter said she would give it 4 stars as it was a good movie and she would watch it now and then, but it wasn't the greatest movie she ever saw (she would give Coraline the movie 5 stars!).
In all, I am still glad I got this movie, the Jonas Bros seem like good kids and role models and they sing okay and are decent to look at. As a mom, this movie won't annoy me, and I think my kids will enjoy it quite a few more times.
