Cirque du Soleil: Worlds Away 3D
3D continues its coming of age with this cinematic circus spectacular.
Overview
A couple of years ago, it was easy to dismiss the modern iteration of 3D as a novelty, good for chase scenes and rollercoastering through goblin bank dungeons and not much else. But lately some of Hollywood's biggest filmmakers have made it their mission to do 3D the grown-up way, with Ang Lee conjuring rich magic realism in Life of Pi and Wim Wenders weaving us around the dancers in immersive doco Pina.
Now the man who first laid down the gauntlet with Avatar, James Cameron, is behind a new experiment in 3D storytelling, Cirque du Soleil: Worlds Away. Directed by Andrew Adamson, it makes an epic sweep of seven Cirque du Soleil shows, O, Mystere, Ka, Love, Zumanity, Viva Elvis, and Criss Angel Believe, incorporating their most impressive acts of aerial acrobatics, contortion, clowning, and other circus arts.
The Canadian company is known the world over for its dramatic contemporary circus spectaculars, but less known are its attempts to bring the Cirque du Soleil spirit of wonder to other media. Last year it partnered with Google to create a fantasy browser experience you control with your body, Movi.Kanti.Revo. If that same creativity is unleashed in Worlds Away, it will be a rapturous adventure.
