| - Oh, man! Thank goodness it ended when it did because I was falling asleep. Snore, snore.
Of course, this hasn't been the first time I've fallen asleep at a Cirque show, but who's counting after having seen 14 different, official Cirque shows. See all my reviews here on Yelp. (link: http://www.yelp.com/list/my-favorite-cirques-las-vegas)
For me, this show was lacking... well, CIRQUE. Other than the cool, Spider-man like trampoline act, this was only Cirque-est (like those cheap traveling acts that come through your town with Cirque rejects. Actually, those fire breathers and dancers are quite entertaining, but I'm going off on a tangent).
Anyhow, this is my idea of a high end lounge act... which, in Vegas, you can usually get free tickets to when you endure a couple hours of timeshare lectures. (On a positive note, the singers are really good. To which, this review would have only gotten one star without them.)
Nonetheless, if you paid and did not get a REFUND due to the pyrotechnics malfunctioning, the breakdown would follow:
- $10 for the tribute video, one would pay at an Elvis museum
- $40 for a good Vegas lounge act with no headliner
- $40 for a Cirque-lite side show
That's a total of $90 for 90 minutes with no intermission, which leaves you in the nose-bleeds section of this show. You do the math and see if it's worth your time and money.
