Amazon.co.uk Review
"Out of this world" is probably the best way to describe the style and content of Westlife's home-coming live performance in Dublin, IWhere Dreams Come True/I. It's also a fair description (in the inter-galactic sense) of the short film that opens the concert, when Shane, Kian, Mike, Nicky and Bryan are beamed down to Earth (or more precisely to their native Ireland) from deepest space. Decked out in white for the opening and closing segments of the concert it's easy to see why some fans view the five guys as modern-day angels. Appropriately for the song "Flying Without Wings" the guys manage to perform the song strapped to a scaffolding hoist that gently floats above the audience.p Overall the concert is a spectacular all-singing, all-dancing affair that showcases their biggest hits and selected album tracks, aided by an amazing set and stage effects. In places the performance does seem rather twee, especially their rural-themed rendition of "Seasons of the Sun" when the group emerge from behind the set decked in stylish country-wear. The moves performed by the all-female dance troupe to "I Have a Dream" are also plain awful. Tour favourites "When You're Looking Like That" and "Uptown Girl" are the hot highlights of this stunning live release.p BOn The DVD:/B there are plenty of added extras on this DVD including two documentaries, "Access All Areas" and "World of Our Own". However, neither of these featurettes represent the group in a particularly positive light, with the boys spending most of their time crowing about the numerous number ones they've had and how wonderful they are. The "Access All Areas" documentary depicts the guys in a particularly cruel light--playing football outside their concert arena whilst fans torturously watch on behind a wire fence. The exclusive IWhen Dreams Come True/I website, which can only be accessed through the DVD-Rom link, is amazing though, with state-of-the-art graphics, animations and content (eg: lyrics of top Westlife songs, multi-media biographies and interviews with the guys). Look out for the bonus music video for "When You're Looking Like That" (never released as a single in the UK).--IJohn Galilee/I

I waited for this DVD for what seemed like ages, but when I finally got it, it was definitely worth the wait. It features (almost) all the best songs that Westlife have recorded, plus a rather funny and cheerful Motown Medley. My favourite bits must be the ones where the little known vocal talents of Kian appears, which was also what struck me the most in concert. Only one thing dissapointed me slightly, the fact that I read somewhere that it contained different camera-angles - but alas it didn't :o(brNo matter what - buy it - the money will be well spent...:o)
An awesome experience - I was blown away March 18, 2002

This was an absolutely fun concert to watch. With the mild exception of a little too much of Mark's vocals in the harmony blend on several songs, the harmonies were great. The staging was exciting, the costumes were cool, and the Motown bit in the middle was unexpected and extremely well-done. The typical, fabulous Westlife harmonies were evident most of the time, and the boys looked like they were having so much fun. And the spectacular ending, Flying Without Wings while perched above the audience, was too, too much! The behind the scenes footage was fun, and the featurette on World Of Our Own provided a whole lot more music. And the added bonus of the video for When You're Looking Like That was great. Well-worth the money. I've already watched it twice! Buy it. Enjoy it!
A brilliant DVD!! A must for every Westlife fan!!!! November 26, 2001

I bought this DVD on Saturday. I had been waiting for months for it's release, and belive me...It was worth the wait! With brilliant extras, such as an Access All Areas documentary about the 'Coast To Coast' Tour, a featurette of Westlife's No.1 album 'World Of Our Own', a bonus 5 track live CD with songs taken from the concert and the video for 'When You're Looking Like That' made it a great treat for me, as I am a huge Westlife fan!! It was great watching the actual concert and seeing the thousands of fans all screaming and singing along to their favourites. But best of all, was seeing Westlife perform!! It is sure to bring back happy memories to anyone who went to the 'Coast To Coast' Tour!brThis is a must for any Westlife fan out there who has a DVD player!
A must-see October 9, 2001

I have seen quiet a few previews on this video, and I was at the concert of their tour, which this video is based on! I stood in a queue for 11 hours, and I must say it was worth it, and with this video I can get all the memories back from that time, see all the funny little clips, with the 5 lads did. One thing is sure I will buy both the video and DVD of: Where Dreams Come True.
