Hilary Duff - The Concert - The Girl Can Rock

Starring:Hilary Duff
Studio: Walt Disney Video
Product Type: DVD
Editorial Review:
Amazon.com
Disney Channel starlet-turned-movie actress Hilary Duff proves a legitimate contender in her side career as a singer on Hilary Duff: The Concert--The Girl Can Rock. Backed by an ace band of hired guns and immersed in edgy pop arrangements more interesting than her studio recordings, Duff sounds like a worthy centerpiece in The Girl Can Rock's smart orchestration. The title tune kicks things off with an attention-getting backbeat and big (but not bombastic) rock & roll sound, while "Little Voice" comes pretty darn close to approximating the old, critically lauded, power pop sound of the late '70s. "Anywhere but Here" could easily pass as a tune from the Pretenders' songbook, and Duff makes the most out of its emotional counterpoints and minor chord changes. Even at the show's dippiest ("Love Just Is"), musical settings are always tasteful and evocative. Special features include Duff's so-so video for "Come Clean," and a better one for "So Yesterday (Live)." --Tom Keogh

Absolute must have for any Hilary fan.......2007-02-27
This DVD is excellent. Hilary Duff puts on a good, entertaining show for her fans. The band is good and the music sounds good. Hilary's voice is just fine. Most notably, the concert is simply a lot of good, wholesome fun. It's a welcome break at times from "serious" or angry or controversial stuff. Hilary obviously enjoys performing for her fans and has fun on stage. She interacts well with the band members; they appear as part of a friendly team. She acknowledges her fans. The rest of the DVD, the stuff besides the concert, is also very good. There is a clip of Hilary on a show with Ryan Seacrest, clips of making videos, clips of Hilary out and about, including surfing and shopping, and footage of behind the scenes at the concerts, including interviews of band members. Throughout, Hilary comes off as a very pleasant and likeable person. Not like some other performers who are jerks, or drunks, or pervs, etc. A must-have for Hilary fans and a worthwhile view for everyone else too.
Very Awesome and entertaining.......2007-02-09
This DVD rocks. Awesome concert. Hilary looked very hot in it. It makes you want to sing and dance to it. I love Hilary. She is my favorite singer and actress. Cool music videos, and more. This DVD is worth all the money. If you love Hilary get this DVD if you don't have it already. Hilary rocked in it as well. The songs were written and performed very well. She has such great taste in music. I've been watching this every day since I got it. That's how great it is. Hilary I love you alot and keep singing. You have such a beautiful voice. Keep up the good work. If you ever get a chance to travel, COME TO UTAH!.
Hilary`s great.......2006-12-11
This concert is entertainment at its best.
It`s more pop than rock, but if you luv Hilary it`s a MUST HAVE!
Picture Quality : Very crisp and clear. Not Amamorphic, but presented in 1,78:1 widescreen.
Sound : Realy terrible here. The 5,1 mix has a lot of music, but not a lot of Hilary. She`s in there somewere(nothing in the centrer speaker), but the vocals are almost not there. The 2,1 mix is a little better, because the music`s not that loud over Hilary singing.
It`s awful for Hilary that Disney (Hollywood records)did a lousy sound job for this dvd, and they`re also trying to make us belive it`s one concert, when it`s in fact two concerts, and it`s very ANNOYING to see Hilary changing clothes every 10th seconds.
The bonus material is very good, and the two music videos of `"come clean", and "so yesterday, live verson" are very nice. 5,1 sound here also(center speaker is still not active) Crisp and clear picture and "come clean" is in 1,78:1 widescreen.
Hilary in concert = great entertainment.......2006-02-24
If you're wondering what the Hilary hype is all about, but haven't had a chance to catch her in concert, this is the next best thing. You don't have to be a diehard fan of Hilary's (mostly) pop tunes to enjoy this look at her first tour promoting her album Metamorphosis, and the DVD's title is well deserved. "Working It Out" particularly shines, displaying the type of energy Duff is capable of creating onstage. Recommended for both longtime fans and newbies.
Concierto de los mejor!!!!.......2006-02-09
Tuve el honor de estar presente en el concierto que se ocupo para filmar este video. La verdad que trataron de dar conocer a los fans, es lo que muchos vivimos en lo que se podría decir la mejor experiencia de mi vida, el poder ver a mi artista favorito a no menos de 1 metro, fue algo maravilloso, Esta sensación la podrán vivir todos a sus casas por que este video esta bien filmado y nos deja disfrutar de la experiencia como si estuviéramos ahí. Se los recomiendo tiene adicionalmente unos videos que son muy buenos de algunos éxitos del disco Metamorphosis.
