PREVIEW

The most popular band on this spinning rock of mostly water release another filmed concert - but this time with stuff all sticky-out in 3D. With one of the most positive review ratings of recent years on Rotten Tomatoes, (currently hovering in the late 90s) you'll apparently love this like the expensively-filmed child you never had. Needless to say, fans of the supergroup will lap this up like fat dogs being fed, as they bolt through their impeccable set list with apparent typical vigour. The concert, which is part of the lads' Vertigo tour, is co-filmed by Hollywood director Mark Pellington and is supposed to be the closest you can get to the real thing without forking over 80 clams. You'll know exactly what to expect with this one and thus shouldn't be disappointed. Also, the queue for the jacks won't be a fraction as long and surely that's worth an extra star!?
