I like the live part but there are way to man fan interviews in between all this songs.. its gets very annoying... i wish it could of just been the performances

This film documents a concert by Glee characters, not by the actors portraying them. If you already like Glee, you will enjoy the concert and the profiles of the beautiful diversity that exemplifies the fan base. The real lives of several fanciers are profiled through clips inserted into the concert and behind-the-scenes footage. Through these biographical snippets, as well as comments from the concert attendees, viewers hear revelations of how Glee has helped people accept those who are different from themselves--and to accept themselves. Many in the crowd share a common experience of finding a "family of friends" who share their appreciation of the soul-freeing power of music and stories on the television show.

The concert itself is full of powerhouse performances that showcase the entertainers (including the musicians) as individuals and as a dynamically synergistic group. Onstage and backstage, all stay in character, adding to the fun factor of this upbeat film.

Glee fans will love it. People who have not seen Glee, do not like Glee, or are mean-spirited bigots should probably stay home and find something else to gripe about.

The title of the movie suggests you are going to see the kids from 'New Directions' singing, dancing, talking to the crowd and interacting on stage. That was ultimately not what this movie is.

The movie starts out interviewing tons of frantic glee fans about who they like most, and then one by one you see a few of the characters and they talk. From there it is just one huge jumbled mess, there is three stories that are being told throughout the movie. Three stories that I felt played no part in the glee concert at all, and could have (should have) been left out. The movie jumps a lot. It goes from a very short performance, fades to black, and then starts something else (whether that be a story, or a back-stage thing). What really bothered me is that they really didn't perform that many songs, and I doubt the real audience was watching these three kids lives.

Over-all I don't think that the movie was as good as it could have been. They didn't perform more than maybe 13 songs (all of which were shortened versions), the majority of scenes used in the trailer weren't in the movie, they emphasized too much on these three kids who had nothing at all to do with glee, and to my surprise there was a lot of lip syncing, it was really obvious. Other times the record playing in the background would be louder than their microphones, so you couldn't hear them. Only their voice recorded in the studio, which is still lip syncing. Only one performance really stood out in the whole film, and the rest were really boring. The best part of the movie was getting the free cheap iron-on glee 3D tote-bag.

Were the performances good? Not really. I feel that one night could have been spent filming this. Instead of filming at a ton of different locations. A few of the performances were badly lip synced, and sounded exactly as they did on TV.

Was it funny? Not really. The only funny parts were the 2 or 3 scripted "back-stage" scenes where they went into character, surprisingly most of the characters were left of for these scenes.

Does this substitute for the real concert? Not at all. I can't imagine them really singing 12 or 13 *shortened* songs and playing a bunch of videos for a concert. This should have been called "Glee 3D: The concert documentary". If this would have been a concert, I would be furious and request a refund.

Do I recommend seeing it? No. This was a waste of money.
