  • O is for Overrated. Yes, I said it... but it's still a very, very, very good show. I'm going to be extra critical of this show in this review because it gets so much praise. I wanted to start with my best tip for the show (since it's Cirque du Soleil's most popular and consequently most expensive show - rarely there are discounts in off season) - the restricted view seats in section 203, row P. There is a brass handrail at the very bottom of your field of vision, but it doesn't take away much from the view of the show. Tickets are around $109 instead of the $180 that your seat neighbours are paying. You need to buy the tickets by calling the box office, they are not available online. So why overrated? O is widely known as CdS' best show, so I went in expecting perfection. And perfect it almost was - so perfect it was a bit boring. The circus acts were very unique with the water element, visually beautiful and elegant, and flowed together seamlessly, but there was not as big as an excitement factor overall. Actually - if you google comparisons of La Reve (the other water show in Vegas, from former CdS people) vs O, many say they enjoy La Reve better for that reason. I haven't seen La Reve personally (hopefully next time I go to Vegas), but I can see where they are coming from. O is beautiful but boring. Still a lovely, lovely show for Cirque fans, though. When I saw it, another thing that bothered me is that in one of the climaxes of the show - the swinging boat - the performers missed the last catch (which in itself didn't matter to me because it is hard to do!), but there was no room to retry this trick, so it was a bit of an anticlimactic ending to the act. I understand that trying it again would disrupt the flow of the show, but it was kind of a letdown that they didn't. Criticisms aside, it really is a beautiful, aesthetically stunning show that is one of Cirque du Soleil's best. I wouldn't necessarily recommend it for a fun night out (go see Love or MJ: one), but definitely a must see for hardcore cirque fans and those wanting something more elegant and classy.
