Editorial Review:
Amazon.com: Though Beyonce Knowles has earned fame as an actress and a spokesmodel, she is first and foremost a singer, as she showcases in the entertaining concert film The Beyonce Experience Live. Polished, effortlessly glamorous, and a strong showman, Knowles is the Diana Ross of the 21st century. The singer-songwriter is equally comfortable belting out a rocking dancing number or crooning a heart-wrenching ballad. Though she shares the stage at times with her boyfriend Jay-Z and her bandmates in Destiny's Child, The Beyonce Experience Live makes it clear that she really is a one-woman act. The packaging on the DVD asks, "Are you ready to be entertained?" The answer better be yes, because Knowles gives it her all. Singing, dancing, joking around, costume changes--it's all there. And Knowles is the type of likable performer who makes viewers feel that even though she may be more talented (and prettier) than the rest of us, she's really just one of the girls. Then, too, you've got to love a gal who celebrates a woman's right to gain a few pounds (aka "jelly") in the infectiously catchy hit "Bootylicious." The film does a good job of including various phases of her musical career, from a defiant rendition (with Destiny's Child) of "Survivor," to a funky duet with Jay-Z on "Upgrade U," to a tongue-in-cheek rendition of "Check on It" (from the soundtrack of Pink Panther). While Jennifer Hudson completely overpowered her in the film adaptation of Dreamgirls, Knowles has a pleasant voice well suited for R&B-tinged pop. She paces her set well and doesn't overextend herself to the point where she has to rely on audio tracks to supplement her vocals. Many tour films fail in capturing the excitement of a live concert experience. The Beyonce Experience Live is about as good as you can get to seeing Knowles live, but without having to buy a ticket. --Jae-Ha Kim

Since Beyonce went solo, I have been very disappointed in her. Not that I have a problem with her going solo. She just have not lived up to the hype surrounding her...until now! This DVD concert is the first project that lives up to her "legend-in-waiting" status.
This concert was great. Beyonce sings and dance her heart out in every number. Don't expect too many surprises though, because this DVD is basically an upgrade from her "Beyonce - Live at Wembley". She took the concepts of her first solo DVD and Destiny's Child farewell Atlanta DVD and upgraded the performances a level or two. That's not a bad thing, but I expected to see a little more from her.
I have only two real complaints: There is no bonus footage (behind ... Read More:

I recommend to buy this product, the show has everything you can expect from Beyonce... dancers, lights, magnificent sound, etc.

Compared to performances by Mariah Carey, Kylie Mingoue and Mary J Blidge I have to say that the performance and the video with Beyonce wasn't up to my expectations.

To make things clear right off the bat--This is a ladies show made by the ladies for the ladies! All the performers, with the exception of 4 male dancers, were female, and the 4 that weren't female definitely catered to the female audience!
Now on to the Best Parts:
*This show began with a bang! Beyonce popped out of the stage floor with a glamorous gown tightly fitted over her curvaceous body. Midway into her singing, prancing, and booty bouncing through her hit "Crazy in Love" she snaps the tail of her dress to reveal a dress more fitting for the "uh oh" dance. Then she meshes in the mega hit "CRAZY" by Gnarls Barkley, and heads on straight to her crazy adlibs.
*For Freakum Dress Beyonce added a lil stylish soul and ... Read More:
