The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

I am not a Glee fan. I don't like or dislike it. I hardly knew anything about Glee before watching this movie. To cut a long story short on why I chose to see this film at the cinema is because we had time to kill in the day, had money and wanted to see a movie. Yes, so out of the likes of 'Harry Potter' and 'Super 8' currently showing, why to choose Glee? We wanted a new experience. And that's what we got.I was aware that concert movies are... bad. I'm referring to 'Jonas Brothers: The 3D Concert Experience' and 'Hannah Montana & Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert'. Neither of which I've seen, but have got bad reviews. They both boast about the fact they are in 3D, like Glee 3D. However, don't judge a book by it's cover.Whilst settling down in my seat, aware of how many of the opposite sex and crowded the cinema had been for a long time, I was wondering "Is this a film only Gleeks will benefit from seeing?". The lights were off and it begun.One thing I noticed about the movie is that it's not just about the concert. It's half-concert, half-"looking at fans and how Glee 'changed their lives'".The concert. It was very well choreographed. The dancing was great and so was the singing. All of the cast were very friendly with the crowd and I enjoyed that.The fans. Their stories were original and they were touching. However, it didn't make much sense. Admittedly, they were saying how Glee helped them in life, but it seems it may have been a way to fill up 45 minutes.The content was good. But you need to think. How is the concert shown to the audience. The camera angles changed frequently and the concert effects (i.e. smoke) were good.The movie boasts about being 3D. So just how good was that? Average. The microphones popped out of the screen and some bits like right at the end where the cast released streamers were impressive.Unfortunately, only the concert scenes were in 3D. So only half of the movie feels like you're there. But I suppose the experience is like you're at the concert, watching Glee at the arena, not in your cinema seat. Still, shooting the fans' stories in 3D would have been a nice touch.Overall, if you're looking for a concert movie better than the others where the 3D effects are OK, watch Glee 3D. However, more could be done with the actual CONCERT. It is Glee: The 3D Concert Movie after all. If you don't know Glee and want to become a Gleek, or if you are one already, Glee 3D is for you.5/10.

If you really are a Glee fan this movie is well worth it. I was not able to go to the concert and was very glad they made a movie with it. My friend went to the concert and still loved the movie as the cameras can get a better view, as well as multiple views, of the stage. This is the first movie that I really appreciated 3D in a movie. The 3D affect made the dances pop. If seeing them sing and dance on T.V. fills you with glee, you will certainly get a rush seeing them in 3D. It was awesome! The glee cast shines as usual. If you are a person who can not wait until the next show each week, you definitely want to see this. I am glad I did. I hope they do this (concert and movie) at the end of each remaining season, and of course hope there are many more seasons!

I am in love with Glee, but of course the tour doesn't come near me. This movie makes you feel like you're actually at the concert. The songs are great! They are mostly from season 2, but there are some from season 1. The message is really good and comes across nicely. The one thing I wished for was more commentary from the characters, and I would have liked to see some more skits. My mom was in the theater with me and she has never watched Glee before. She really enjoyed it and wants to put the Glee songs I already have on her iPod. (lol.) Some parts aren't really for younger kids even with it being just PG. Like I said, I didn't go to the concert and I really suggest that fans of Glee who also did not get to see it go to see this movie!

First if you were fortunate enough to go see the concert live this movie is a waste of your time. I decided to go see even though I was able to go to the concert because I wasn't able to enjoy all the songs because I couldn't see over everyone.CONTAINS MODERATE SPOILERS: While I know they added the glee fans and some of their stories on how glee changed there lives to be meaningful, I really didn't care. I only wanted to see the cast sing and adding those stories as transitions between songs to me was annoying and cut you off from seeing all the song because they would start the songs amidst the interview. Again if you were able to see the concert live, they had some small dialogue in between songs (some of which you see in the previews) which I feel could have let it flow better, but I'm assuming they cut it because the songs were out of order in the movie.The cast in character interviews while weird they were actually amusing and I kinda wished they interviewed all of the cast instead of about half.All in all if you're a huge gleek or just want to enjoy the concert then I'd so go see it, but if not then just save your money.P.S. If anybody is wondering why Blaine is singing songs with New Directions it's because during the concert Kurt asks Blaine to join.
