  • Summary: Celine Dion, the international superstar and best-selling female artist of all time, has toured around the world and back again, and now, Sony Pictures Releasing's special programming division, The Hot Ticket, will let audiences follow her everywhere. For a limited engagement beginning early next year in wide release, Celine: Through the Eyes of the World will bring Celine Dion's 2008-2009 Taking Chances World Tour to theaters. This special motion picture event gives Dion fans who attended the extremely popular tour – which placed Dion second only to Madonna in ticket sales in 2008 – another chance to experience the magical event, this time from a vantage point unparalleled by any ticket.

    Yet it would be wrong, or at least simplistic, to dismiss Celine as a globe-spanning ego trip. Directed by Stephane Laporte, the movie offers something we seldom see anymore from public figures: grandiosity without either apology or arrogance.
  2. In short, if you like her, you’ll likely love her after the film, which I suspect is timed to usher in a return world tour.

    Some concert movies make you feel like you have the best seat in the house; this one plants you squarely in front of the Jumbotron.

    It’s probably accurate in its portrayal of her general good humour. Detractors would be surprised at how genuinely funny she can be.

    'Celine: Through the Eyes of the World' counters every generalized stereotype about Dion, her balladry songs, and over-the-top demeanor. The movie gives viewers an inside look of a life, not many have seen or expected. It's down to earth, and surprisingly real. I highly recommend it for both die-hard Dion fans, and people who want to see a different side of the pop diva. Expand

    Brilliant....this is not a live show for those who couldn't be there in person. This is an intimate look at a performer, allowing you to share her passion for her fans, her family and her singing. Expand
