 Wonderful Entertainment for Young and OldJun 16, 2010
My husband and I became Cirque du Soleil fans when we saw "La Nouba" performed live at Disney World in 2004. Since then, we've watched every Cirque du Soleil DVD available. When I saw this box set available at a bargain through Amazon, I ordered it with no reservations and was not surprised when it lived up to all our expectations. We have been delighted and thrilled by each of the performances. I highly recommend "Solstrom" to all Cirque fans.
Some acts good some acts badAug 15, 2009
I am a big fan of Cirque Du Soleil. I seen Alegria, Saltimbanco, La Nouba, Cirque Reinvente, Nouvelle Experience, LA Magie continue, Journey Of Man, A Baroque Odyssey, and Quidam. The other Cirque Du Soleil I have not seen. There are ten acts on each episode. Each episode is about 44 minutes in length. Out of the ten acts per episode 5 I recconize from the shows. The 5 acts on each episode that come from the shows are absolutely amazing. But then you have the other 5 acts on the episode which were not in any of the shows I saw. I know this because I have all the shows mentioned on DVD. Unfortionatly I only been to the show in Florida live all the rest I seen on DVD only.
The other five acts on each Episode are not up to Cirque Du Soleil standards. Those 5 acts per episode that are not in the shows are not bad acts. They are so, so acts not great but not bad either. I would give the 5 acts per episode not in the show 2.5 out of 5 stars. The five acts that are in the show per episode I would give 5 stars each. So to be precise I would rate this series 3.75 stars. Amazon does not have a rating system where you can put 3.75 stars out of five so I guess four stars out of five will do. Please keep in mind that the series contains 15 episodes and so far I have only watched 9 out of the 15 episodes. There are 3 episodes per DVD and their are 5 DVD's. So far I watched DVD 1,2, and 3. I have not watched DVD 4 or 5 yet. I feel that this makes a good purchase because of the number of 5 star acts. All the 2.5 acts stop this series from being a great buy but for $37.00 this series makes a good buy. Hope I helped with your buying decision and hopefully you enjoy the series as much or even more than I did.
Brilliant!Dec 24, 2008
Even though this is a series and not the actual live show, it is truly brilliant once you "get into it"! My younger children absolutely love watching these episodes over and over again. And as a parent, I'd say it's a much better thing for them to watch than a lot of the junk featured on TV! I loved this so much I even bought this for my grandmother and she simply loves it, too! The acts featured in these episodes are simply amazing!!!! Also, be sure to watch the "making of the episodes" segment on the last DVD, it's incredible how they filmed these all with only two takes per act! Overall, this series is a "must see" for anyone appreciates the circus arts!

 I am pissed...Sep 28, 2008
The review of solstrom Cirque du Soleil - Solstrom - The Complete Series before I hit the purchase button is "do not have original covers, some scratches but still play well."
The true is, the disc are from a rental shop named Red Hook Family Video, were badly scratched, do not play well and go on halt intermittently. All disc were not hold up to the push point and position in the disc holding, incurred more new scrathes during the handling. I suspect this was done on purpose to camouflage the already bad condition.
I do not mind that the covers are not in original version but they are in 19 x 13 x 1.5 cm disc cover, they are quick bulky and take up additional weigth and space of my parcel and made me pay more.
I am a customer on the other part of the globe and I heard that refund and return are very much a hassle and time consuming, laborious excercise. I can then only suffer in silent.
I strongly urge that do not believe in the review when it says only light scracthes. Amazon should bar this dealer as he/ she is not honest.
Fabulous Family EntertainmentJul 13, 2008
When this originally aired on television, our family(husband, son 10, daughter 6 and myself) would gather around the t.v. set and eagerly await each Sunday night's episode. It was amazing and we looked forward to each episode. Here it is several years later, my son and I have gone to see Cirque du Soleil live, and have never forgotten watching it as a family and enjoying our family time. When my son recently received money, he asked me to purchase "Solstrom". The acts are incredible and the costumes and music are beautiful. Since this was a series, we look forward to seeing the same characters appear throughout the different episodes and it is as enjoyable today as it was years ago. In fact my children can appreciate some thing more now, than they did when they were younger. A must see!!!
