Amazing,Michael Flately at his toe tapping best, you will not be dissapointed with this fantastic Celtic dvd, taking you on a trip through the irish history.A+
This cd is on it's way to Austrialia. Sorry I won't be able to review. If it's anything like his other stuff it will be very good. This was bought as a present for my father who likes Michael Flatley's dances.
I love Michael Flatley's shows and his skill as a dancer. The music, costumes and all the other dancerfs are fantastic. Michael Flatley's generosity in giving credit to his fellow performers is lovley to see. This DVD is worth watching time and time again. It's fantastic.
THIS IS A BRILL FILM IT WAS BETTER THAN RIVER DANCE .THERE WAS NOTHING TO DISLIKE.ABOUT THIS FILM IT ENTERTAIN YOU .WE BROUGHT IT BECAUSE WE HAD WATCHED RIVER DANCE TO SO WE THOUGHT GOOD TO WATCH TO AND WE DID ENJOY THE FILM.
This is one for all Michael Flatley fans! As well as the (of course) first class showmanship and dancing, CELTIC TIGER is a potted history in dance and song of the Irish clearaces.. Fab special effects, the burning cottage is amazingly realistic... For me however (and I am a fan of Michael Flatley) it doesnt have the goosepimply-hairs-standing-up-on-the-back-of-the-neck magic of RIVERDANCE and LORD OF THE DANCE. But then thats my opinion, others nay feel otherwise. But it is a vital addition to any one who loves this genius of Irish DAnce.
This title was new to me,didn't realise that Michael Flatley had another dvd on the circuit.Am a huge fan of Lord of the Dance which was the reason for this purchase and although this dvd is v.good its not as good as Lord of the Dance.
I liked the performer,even though he is a big headed g*t. His shows are very well put together. But a friend of the family thinks he great,cant put a foot wrong(yeah right).
I bought this as a xmas present & my friend was well chuffed.
Loved the price and quality of my purchase and service was brilliant. this was my first purchase on ebay and it geared me up to use ebay on regular basis.
i love irish and i've always wanted dat dvd cheap!my daugther started irish in yr seven at 11yrs old and has loved it ever since i would request this dvd.
my son and I were spell bound by this dvd, it was in excellent condition no scratches it looked brand new ,well wrapped and was delivered very quickly. I would not hesitate in bidding on this sellers auction again
Bought this as a present for Mother in law and not for me so I cant really comment on it other than to say I thought it was a rare copy-then discovered after purchasing it from eBay I could have bought it brand new for cheaper in the shops!!
We went to see this live at sheffield a few months ago, it is truely a breathtaking performance that sends shivers down your spine from the outset. The dvd captures the show perfectly, and is the next best thing to being there, and costs a lot less as well!! If you enjoyed Riverdance, and Lord of the dance, you will love this....over and over again.
I have been a fan of Michael Flatley since i first saw him on TV.I was lucky enough to see him live in London after the last show he produced,and i could not wait for the follow up,at last CELTIC TIGER was made i have not seen the live show yet but was thrilled to purchase the dvd, it is excellent family entertainment and i would recommend it to any fan or a lover of irish dancing and music.
Michael should be commended for his enthusiasm and hard work in producing some very excellent shows. It is such a pity that it took so long for the public to recognise his remarkable talents but his debut being the European song contest in Dublin when the whole world marvelled at his professionalism and technique in Irish dancing. Having purchased many of the show's both edited and mixtures of several debut's edited together it was certainly on the cards to purchase his latest show of Celtic Tiger. I was not dissapointed but I would suggest to all fans and interested people to also read his biography which helped me to fully appreciate how and why his shows are put together and the many meanings behind the scenes and how he has portrayed his own feelings into the dance routines. This was particlarly important for the Celtic Tiger show and helps one to become part of the show. Celtic Tiger also encouraged me to visit Dublin the home of the Original Riverdance. It was a very memorable visit. I raise my Guinness to Michael and wish him all The Best
Michael Flatley never gives up with the talent he has and the boys and girls he has with him. together they bring one of the best in irish dancing...."Celtic Tiger". it made my feet tap and gave my heart a boost of joy.it was a brilliant piece of dancing with what can only be described as "The biggest dance floor in the world"( This includes all the dancers, and there are a few). The outlay of the story (there is always a story)was very good, although some of the middle of the programme would get you lost, you would return back to the story line, This i find was the only draw back within the dvd. After "River dance", "Feet of flames" and not forgetting "Lord of the dance" i bought it to add to my collection of dances with Michael Flatley. Overall, a well made dvd and a joy to watch over again. It would seem that all dvd's have a little extra on them, which makes the video's look silly. Although as i watched the dvd, i was not able to pin point a bad moment within the dance, (with the exception of the loss of storyline). So on a big possitive note..........A must in your collection, and looking forward to the next one.
I purchased celtic tiger dvd and looked forward to playing it. When I received it I found it didn't play as there was no soundtrack. I couldn't listen to dvd only watch it. Very disappointing.
i bought celtic tiger as i love dancing and performing arts of all kinds and have followed michael flatleys main work for a while now and think he is a fantastic dancer and choreographer. i loved the energy and styles used to create this show and the use of colour to show moods and different scenes was amazing. the only one thing i did not like is that this was not an original copy of the show either that or the seller decided to make new covers for there existing orignal dvds, other than that the quality was good. i would definately recomend this to anyone who is interested in michael flatley, irish dancing or who just has a passion for the performing arts!!!!
I bought this for a friend but watched it myself too! Michael Flatley is clearly showing how the aging process has taken its toll on him - overweight with intermittent appearances. The rest of the dancers where up to the usual standard though.
I disliked what I perceived to be an anti English sentiment threading its way throughout the performance.
Some way short of earlier works by Michael Flatley so for me it gets an average vote.
I would love the opportunity to review it but sadly I have never received the goods and no money back either. I have used E Bay's complaints procedure to resolve this problem so hopefully I will write a review at a later stage.
