 |  | My impression of this musical |  |
I like this musical. The performance is great, Hasselhoff plays and sings wonderfully, the cast is perfect. The graphics are well done, the colours are very similar to life, the music sounds well and very clear and it seems you are sitting in the hall.
The show is very spectacular , emotional and dynamic. The scene of transformation looks like a real transformation and delivers the idea very well. You can almost believe to the actor, he really changes his appearance and behaviour.
I think this show can be compared with the best musicals around the world, so, enjoy it !
April 12, 2008| | | Ignore HASSELHOFF!!!!! listen to those leading ladies!! | |
Their is no doubt that David Hasselhoff was terrible. but i will give him credit. His acting was superb. Unfortunately his voice couldn't back up his acting. But lets think about the positive. The cast surrounding Hasselhoff was AMAZING!!! Coleen Sexton as Lucy Harris gives Linda Eder a run for her money. Her tone was so much prettier than linda eders diva sound. I will say with full confidence that "Good and Evil" and "Someone like you" were the best numbers on this dvd. I would definately suggest buying this dvd for those two recordings because they outshined linda eders recordings on all the jekyll and hyde recordings.
November 25, 2007 | | Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde the musical with David Hasseloff | |
I really enjoyed watching Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde the musical with David Hasseloff. I was truly surprised at how great David Hasseloff performance was as Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Not only was he amazing to watch but the rest of the cast was also a pleasure to watch.
September 10, 2007Although Hasselhoff has nothing on Anthony Warlow, Jekyll and Hyde is a real masterpiece. True its music does mimic many previous well know stage musicals but it is still brillant in every sense of the word. Songs like Someone Like You and In His Eyes stand alone as examples of why this musical should not be judge so harshly. Just because it came out after other successes doesn't mean it is attempting to copy them and even if it is it is merely because those shows were hits and who wouldn't want their 'baby' to be a succeed in a pretty harsh business. Clearly it was a big enough success to be on broadway, produced as this dvd and turned into a feature film (coming 2009). So to anyone who hasn't seen the show and wants to see it then WATCH THIS DVD! And the same goes for fans. Until 2009 when the feature film comes out this is a terrific substitute, even if Hasselhoff isn't the greatest Jekyll ever on stage(like I have implied- he did have some tough acts to follow).
Before I finish up let me just add that aside from all this the leading ladies are fabulous in this particular production and worth having a good look and listen to.
August 16, 2007I am a huge fan of musicals, and Jeckyll and Hyde has been my favorite for years! It was one of the first shows I saw on stage and I immediately fell in love with it. I was disappointed in David Hasselhoff's performance. I love the music from Jeckyll and Hyde. Some of the songs were simply meant for big, strong voices. Sadly, David's voice is neither big nor strong. I still recommend the DVD because there is really no other choice and it is worth watching, despite Hasselhoff. However, if you are not familiar with Jeckyll and Hyde already PLEASE listen to the original cast recording of the show!
