Production 10 - Performances 7

In a nutshell.... This DVD is among the best I have seen regarding the quality of the video and audio. The 5.1 channel sound is very good, with clear definition of the voices. the video is absolutely stunning on my 42" plasma, with brilliant lighting and vibrant colors. Add to that is the filming on stage, showing the actual staging techniques while still allowing good close ups of the performers.

I rate the performers a little lower, but certainly they are adequate. Hasselhoff is a bit campy at times, and Oh that stringy hair! But he is not really "bad" and the score is strong enough to allow overlooking some aspects of his performance, ton which he certainly gives his all.

I liked the remaining cast members. Both ladies have good voices. I felt that "Lucy" was a little too perfect looking for a prostitute... she looked too much like a prep school beauty to me. Again a minor issue.

The after show antics by Hasselhoff after the curtain calls were distracting to me... completely broke the residual "mood" of the show. All in all, a well done and enjoyable production with a flavor of a "real" Broadway show. October 24, 2008

review of Jekyll & Hyde the Musical

This was a very well done video of an actual live stage performance of Jekyll and Hyde the musical. It really made the story come to life for me. It was a great performance and additionally you get to enjoy the audience reactions. August 31, 2008

Hasselhoff was great!

Have seen other productions of Jekyll & Hyde, with other young stars,they lack the size and body weight, voices were OK. For this production the right person was cast, his voice not perfect in every song, was a good musical play voice. He carried the role very well. I was impressed, my lady friend said " I have changed my mind about Hasselhoff". My feelings were the same. He sang well, he had good stage presense. He fit the role well. The songs are great and for most part, his supporting cast was good. Have watched the DVD three times, and enjoyed three times. I was happy that they filmed it as play, and not try to make it into a movie. If Hasselhoff does any other plays in the future, I will go, based on this play. The most diffcult part is when he has to play both parts on stage, he was great! August 20, 2008

My impression of this musical

I like this musical. The performance is great, Hasselhoff plays and sings wonderfully, the cast is perfect. The graphics are well done, the colours are very similar to life, the music sounds well and very clear and it seems you are sitting in the hall.
The show is very spectacular , emotional and dynamic. The scene of transformation looks like a real transformation and delivers the idea very well. You can almost believe to the actor, he really changes his appearance and behaviour.
I think this show can be compared with the best musicals around the world, so, enjoy it ! April 12, 2008
