No only is this a visual feast with a real amount of thought put into the lighting , and the shots , but the stunning visuals are then coupled with the outstanding voice of one of today's best singers.

This performance instantly becomes a favorite from the very first opening sequence, with a stunning dramatic entrance from Adele the show immediately feels intimate and cozy, it is like you are seeing her live.

The visuals are put together in such a way that you are literally able to feel emotion through it, you begin to feel excited with the right songs and the camera is portaging that beautifully with amazing shots. Then you are able at other times to just sit still and listen to the amazing songs that are being preformed and again this is reflected through the cameras movements. You are able to tell instantly that this performance and it's visuals have been well thought out, well put together and well delivered to an audience though this outstanding DVD!

But the visuals aren't all this has to offer, you are able to intimately experience a one of a kind performance from one of the most amazing singers out today.

I would recommend this to anybody to watch and to own.

Of all the concerts in the present music industry, this one was by far the simplest and that is indeed the highlight of it. The band was brilliant and the orchestra worked beautifully. Needless to say, Adele's voice sounded expectantly top-notch but her humor was something of a treat for the audience. It seemed less like a singer singing for the audience and more like a bunch of friends singing together and having a great time.

Talking about the much vexed topic of the camera direction: Although the footage was prune to frequent change of camera angles, it did not bother me much. In fact, for me, it worked more then just fine. I found myself fully realizing the augustness of the setting, audience, music and the moments that made this concert such an amazing experience. Every shot of Adele was nothing but gorgeous, graceful and well cute. The audience looked very involved and connected with whatever was happening up on the stage.

The two concluding numbers stole the show. Someone like you just made you shed uncontrollable tears while rolling in the deep made the audience sing their souls out! The sheer emotions of these moments just makes this DVD an actual ticket to Royal Albert Hall where you can experience the entire beautiful night on your screen.

So, all in all a pretty well directed concert footage which truly captures the heart of this act both visually and musically. So don't miss this one, sit back and let Adele do what she does best: Make you cry and laugh at the same time.

Rating 9/10

Review by: Usama Lali

Let me start by saying I signed up here just so I'd be able to review this DVD. I've been an IMDb fan for a long time, but Adele was my trigger for actually registering.

She is one of the most popular artists today and, if you ask me, it's rightfully so. This concert would probably mark the pinnacle of her career (at least when it gets to performing live). I mean, it's the Royal Albert Hall, y'all! I liked it a lot. In fact, I was left with a huge smile on my face and such warmth around my heart. Such emotion, such delivery. As always, she stays true to herself and all she needs is a mike, a stool and her band (although I have no doubts she'd do well without them). So, when it comes to her, it's a pure 10/10, no question about it.

I did have a little problem concentrating because of the fast switching between cameras in some up-beat songs. There were some moments when I wished to see Adele's face and her expression, but was left staring at her drummer or a random person in the audience. Luckily, there were just a few of those moments and they didn't manage to ruin the overall positive impression.

I just can't help it, I have to give it a 10/10. It is very rare these days to witness such stage presence, emotion, ability and vulnerability all at the same time. I highly recommend it, even to those who are not Adele fans. Whether you like her or not, you cannot deny the fact that this was one amazing concert.

Almost forgot to mention her great sense of humor, she is so funny! Enjoy!

BTW (SPOILERS AHEAD!)

The Amy Winehouse tribute was wonderful, with all those lights in the audience and the disco ball - I almost cried there.

And then she got to Someone Like You and I couldn't hold my tears back. I think it has a lot to do with the fact she talks about almost every song before she performs it and you get to see the story behind it. Plus the fact that she writes her songs and they all have a real deep meaning to her. So, when that audience started to sing, when she kept trying to keep it together (and managed till the end of the song) and when she finally broke down at the end - I just lost it. She was so genuine, pure and open to everybody at that moment.

So, once again, don't miss it!
