As stated in an earlier review, at worst, this is a long advert for Cirque du Soleil. For those who haven't seen it live though, this is a good substitute.

For those who haven't seen it live though, this is a good substitute. I took a group of kids (5-11 yo) who had never seen Cirque before and they enjoyed it. As an aside, I doubt this film is aimed primarily at an American audience, as it seems the expectation of the producers is a much greater appreciation for the artistic creativity in Cirque than can be expected from the average American.

I'd rather read a newspaper in a language I don't understand.… Expand

Worlds Away is poorly edited and the closed captioning is phoned in. Cuts are short and jarring such that the viewer cannot absorb and appreciate everything that is happening on stage.
