The show uses a lot of Chinese acrobatic performers. Many were standard Chinese acrobatic acts. There were even one scene where the performers were doing standard Peking Opera routines of kicking spears around on stage. To non-Chinese audience, many of the acrobatic acts seem amazing. But they are no surprise to Chinese audience.
However, I must give 5 stars for its amazing production. The high tech pivoting stage that also serves as an interactive projection system, the surround sound system on the head rest on every seat. The story line seamlessly glued together a collection of seemingly unrelated standard Chinese acrobatic acts that are no longer recognizable as Chinese. The choreography was so good that most acts looked like a dance. It brought you to a fantasy world with great entertainment values. It even includes several scenes designed for kids. Our kids loved the comedy on the "beach" and the shadow puppet show. I am particularly impressed by the bird eye view of the battle scene. The actors played out the battle on wires in front of a vertical wall. They played the scene so effortlessly and you thought you were really looking at a battle from above but in reality you were only looking forward. Such scene is no big deal in a movie, it is just a different camera angle. However, imagine doing it live on stage. That is amazing production.
I think this is what Las Vegas show is all about. I enjoyed this much better than Mystere.
