Well done 👍
pauljasmin-5201315 September 2022
I came in with expectations because it is bts but it turned out much much better than i expected . The most grabbing part of it was the quality itself. Both visual and audio quality were done really well. It was shot so well with certain angles. Certain scenes stayed with me. Also , how much those men genuinely enjoyed the whole themselves. Didn't felt fake or worn out or forced even for a second. One thing that I didn't liked was at certain angles it felt like it could have been shot better. But overall it's well done. Time flew so fast. It didn't got boring even for a second. Definitely worth the time.

Well done.

These guys are master live entertainers.
cpinzon115 September 2022
I thoroughly enjoyed this concert film of BTS' LA concert. This series was the first in person show the band had put on since the beginning of Covid and it underlined how much the group loves performing. They are very engaging and put on one hell of a show. The palpable joy of both the group and the audience at being back in a face-to-face setting was contagious. The set list was filled with all their most famous songs plus almost the whole content of the BE album. The backstage footage also added to the feel of the film, making it more immediate how much effort goes into putting on such a show.

Some favorite parts: the sequence of Blue and Gray into Black Swan was breathtaking. The run from Dynamite to Butter with that great dance break in the middle were so full of fun and joy. They reminded me of the Funk shows from back in the 70's. Too bad that, as is usual with concert films, the director chopped up the dances in the filming, to what purpose I don't know.

The only complain I have is the muting down of the crowd. This is usual with concert films but for my taste it takes away from the overall feel of "live concert". For the rest, all the sets, costumes and musical arrangements were on point.

Amazing concert film
mncpa15 September 2022
BTS always gives a powerful and amazing performance and this concert film captures so much of the energy and fun of the actual concert. The editing was done so well and the behind the scenes during the set changes was just awesome. And the subtitles? Perfect! They even included the song lyrics translations so if you have never listened to the group you can understand the songs. My only complaint was the removal of the conversation between Black Swan and Blood Sweat & Tears.

I was at this concert and the way it was shot and recorded made me feel like I was in the stadium again. If you have wondered what all the hype is about regarding BTS, this film is a perfect way to see them.

The amount of 1-star ratings, seriously? lol
alia2715 September 2022
Pulling off the best they could that no one could ever done for 2 years of complicated countermeasures and many other obstacles throughout, BTS had finally came to ease their fans' emptiness after those months of patience within uncertainties.

BTS is rightfully deserved the amount of appreciation on this particular kick-off stage for had successfully attracted as much as 1.02 million viewers from 191 countries/regions, within the three-day in-person concert that was attended by a total of 45,000 people. Due to this fact, tell me which Korean act could even generate those amount of numbers during the period of transition of COVID-19 regulations in the beginning of 2022, in their own country, South Korea? I believe none.

And I will never interested to start any unreasonable argument if you're doubted about the quality of performance because let's just be real and watch the whole performance here. It's BTS you're all about to questioned. They were facing 15,000 audience per day, with no shouts or any close-interaction due to the strict regulations back then in SK, it's probably the most exhausting and empty hall they'd ever faced, but they still brought us to a whole greater universe with their dedicated performances and musical intelligence.

So, for any of you virialized others to hate these talented guys by leaving 1-star on the ratings, good luck with your own idols/fave artists because any ways you tried to unrecognize the BTS standardization in music industry, will in turn, only got you below the border of nugus entertainer in the end too.. Just face reality that it's always been BTS who paved the way.

Exceptional Quality
flossybunny15 September 2022
When it comes to concert videos this might be the holy grail. First, the quality of the visual itself is crystal clear, but the editing is especially good as it moves from the backstage to the main stage in a way that builds the intensity and hype you would expect at a real concert. Second, I think it's worth noting that the subtitles allow for you to read the lyrics of the songs themselves in English (if you want that) so even if you're not a fan, you can fully engage with the music.

If you're a fan of BTS you were going to love this regardless of how it looked. However, I think this has been produced in a way that should appeal to perhaps newer fans or to anyone who is simply curious about this phenomenon. It's not difficult to see why this group thrive globally. Not many concerts are this stunning or intense.

Perfect set list and special effects
meeheemx15 September 2022
First concert post covid was an amazing comeback showcasing their extensive discography. I watched it twice so far and love the snippets of the members backstage. Really well done. That setlist must have been so tiring but the choreography and stamina begiining to end did not let up. Typically they have solo stages for each member which gives other members time to breathe and get ready but this time it was all 7 together and of course i know the significance of that now after they announced their temporary pause from group music. I look forward to their tour when they come back together. BTS are the best performers.

Brought tears to my eyes
vrrhrnvq15 September 2022
I was so happy to see the concert on Disney+. This is one of the best videos of their concerts I have ever seen. It gave us views from all different view points When I was watching it I loved all the different angles that it gave us. I saw stuff I hadn't seen the first time I watched the live stream. It really made me feel like I was there at the concert which is a special feeling. I could hear the fans cheering and singing along, I saw the backup dancers working so hard, and when the surprise guest came out I saw how warmly they greeted them. Also the behind the scenes clips were an extra bonus. I suggest anyone who is curious about BTS should watch this. The cinematography is excellent, the performance is out of this world, the audio shows how amazing their voices are, and you truly get a sense of why they are so big. I look forward to watching this over and over. I can't wait to show this to my family also.

March 12,2022!!!Best Day of my life!
ananyabansal-6878615 September 2022
I went alone to watch the PTD live at my nearby cinema hall and it was so fun and joyful experience. The other ARMYs were so sweet and caring. Even before entering the hall,the hall was full of fanchants and making dance videos. The concert started with an awesome VCR and the crowd erupted in huge awe!!All along the concert,everyone were screaming the lyrics and dancing on every song. The stage power and presence of BTS is unbeatable. Jungkook sang still with you too!!It was so pretty seeing him from that huge screen. Even though it was raining,they kept the energy high and the whole theatre was jumping at the Anpanman part. My videos are full of incoherent words and screaming anytime a member comes close on the screen. I HOPE BTS DOES THIS AGAIN NEXT TIME TOO!!!

Amazing concert
milkandkookies-5408415 September 2022
Dear antis, get a live. But thanks for the views on all of the BTS content. Stay bitter.

For everyone else looking for a good time; this concert will give you everything you ever wanted and didn't know you needed. I've been lucky enough to go to several live shows and it's a thrilling experience every time BTS really know how to put on an amazing show and the live vocals make it even more brilliant.

Don't forget to turn on the subtitles, available in multiple languages as well. The lyrics are beautiful and show the depth and artistry of the group.

If you watch and listen without prejudice, that's all they ask.

10/10 would recommend giving bts a chance
galinsho15 September 2022
BTS have such amazing music, lyrics, performances and stage presence! Please give them a chance without prejudice and I guarantee you will like them. BTS are literally the funniest, nicest people. They worked hard for everything they have and they deserve the best. There is a reason they have such dedicated fans. If you are curious, check them out for yourself. I recommend checking out their b-side tracks and reading the lyrics too. Their discography is god tier! Don't believe random things you hear about them bc a lot of people hate on them for literally no reason. Do yourselves a favor and check out BTS. They saved my life and being their fan was the best decision I ever made. I will love and support them forever. Just trust me and watch with an open mind. Pay attention to the lyrics. Visit their Spotify too after.

A lifetime experience
zarinnushiba15 September 2022
BTS is undoubtedly the best band in the world right now. Their journey inspires a lot of underdog artists to fulfill their dreams. PTD on stage seoul was a ray of hope for BTS, it was their first in person concert with ARMYs. You can actually feel the vibe of joy, love, eagerness, passion and warmth of meeting each other after a long time. 💜 A great movie indeed. The power and the energy that's being shown in the movie beautifully. It's actually every armys dream to experience this live at least once in their lifetime. BTS isn't just a boyband. They are the people who brings happiness to their fans, to the people around the world.

BTS the star performers and singers
whatsthepoint-9183315 September 2022
Map of the soul tour of 2020 was supposed to be the biggest tour in history but unfortunately for all of us due to covid, the tour had to be pushed until further and later cancelled.

After a long wait of 2 years BTS were finally able to perform in front of their beloved fans again with sold out stadium shows. The song PTD, permission to dance is a happy go lucky song that aims at trying to uplift people affected from the pandemic and making this song the main theme of the shows they did in LA, vegas and Seoul was a moment in history.

Watching this gave me post concert depression, ptd is such a beautiful song and BTS are such stellar performers who always leave their audience in awe.

Lovely watch, beautifully filmed and edited
honeyuni15 September 2022
I watched many dates from the Permission to Dance on Stage tour, but I found myself falling in love with this setlist and these performances all over again with this film. About 2 hours worth of beautiful stages and choreography, wholesome and humorous moments, and emotional exchanges between BTS and their fandom. Loved the inclusion of translated lyrics in the captions, as well. The meanings of the songs add so much more to the enjoyment of the stages. If you need a film to show to a non-fan, this is a great one to go with. Performances include numerous title tracks and quintessential BTS songs. There are also many moments where the lovely dynamic the members have, as well as their unique personalities, show through.

Amazing
amytn-3041915 September 2022
I've always loved watching their concerts on DVD or weverse but something about the way this was shot was phenomenal. The quality was great, the camera angles were great, and of course BTS put on a great performance as always. They work so hard at what they do and it shows. There is so much art in their work from their amazing choreography to their amazing songs that are mostly written by the members themselves. The stage production is well thought out as well. I don't see why people hate them so much. They are very humble and it shows. I hope more people give them a chance and watch this concert movie themselves.

10/10 if you want to see someone in concert then go see BTS !!!
ankarl-1708915 September 2022
EXCEPTIONAL! The energy they bring to the stage is something you have never seen before. You can see the blood sweat and tears they put into the preparation for the concerts. If you want to see someone in concert you should definitely go and see bts and you will not be disappointed. The quality is perfect. I really like that it has translations for the songs so that non bts fans can understand the lyricism behind these songs and how deep the meanings behind them is. Every member puts their own energy into the dances and songs so that you have the ultimate BTS experience. Armys are also on another level. If you dont have someone to go to the concert with then you can totally go alone. This fandom is a HUGE big family and thats what makes BTS so special.

Fantastic watch.
abbers-4793015 September 2022
It's very high quality camera work and perfectly encapsulate the hype and joy of being at a concert. Very good setlist and no song felt second tier. The set and sound quality of a concert is amazing and eye-catching. I like the additon of backstage footage to show the authentic joy and rush a concert could be for many artist. This is a great introduction to BTS concert experience and to those who want a nightime activity to do with your friends and family, this is a concert you should watch. This is a perfect content to have for a family friendly platform like Disney+ and has the same messages of hope and love as many of their classic films.

THE BEST
cherylbond15 September 2022
Honestly they are some of the best live performers I have ever had the pleasure to see in concert. Numerous times I might add. The energy is contagious and this movie really encapsulates that. The crowd noise is turned down. But this was filmed beautifully. If you ever get a chance I 100% recommend seeing BTS in concert in person. It is a magical experience. From the music to the energy to the crowd participation if is an experience of a lifetime. A memory that will last your whole life through. BTS is at their very best when performing in front of a crowd. The energy at a BTS concert is palpable. I just don't have enough words to describe the experience. You just have to see and feel it for yourself.

BTS always gives the best.
kbrmrbnc15 September 2022
It was so nice seeing BTS in their element. They are amazing performers and always do their best, and as an army i feel proud everyday that these are the people I stan. They have an amazing presence and beautiful hearts, they are talented and amazing. Although I haven't seen them in person, i felt connected as I watched this. They are so interactive with fans and always do their best to ensure everybody in the stadium walks away feeling satisfied. I love them for that. They're great at what they do and care so much about not only themselves, but always everybody around them. They're beautiful people.

This concert movie makes me wish I was there in person
icenightsv15 September 2022
I loved this concert movie, BTS themselves are amazing performers and really give a unique experience for the music they perform (100% live especially!). BTS have such beautiful vocals and they really know how to keep the energy up for the entire show. You can tell they are professionals in their craft and just how much they love performing! I also appreciate that the song lyrics were translated and included to help you really appreciate the amazing music! I really wish I could have seen this concert in person but I had an amazing time watching this at home with some snacks! Hopefully I'll be able to see BTS live in the future and this concert movie is making me all the more excited!

Just breathtaking
sbijar15 September 2022
This movie showcases bts' permission to dance concert in la. The bad reviews here are extremely funny and pettiful to me because they must be from people who carry so much hate towards this exemplary asian band. Dont be fooled. This is a beautiful movie, the choreography is immaculate and the songs each carry different genres and meanings and lyrics. A very high quality production too. My husband and i absolutely enjoyed every second of it. You get to see how much hard work and effort they put into each and every performance, and what makes them truly different than many other bands we've seen in the past. They truly are so incredibly talented and such beautiful people!

Like being there with the best seat in the house
mapeelen-3374515 September 2022
This was a fun watch! I highly recommend if you enjoy concerts. BTS always brings their A game for live performances and this one tops the list since every song includes all seven members!

I watched this concert online live last winter, but this version is way better! There are subtitles for when the members talk but also for all the lyrics as they sing. If you wanted to know how amazing their lyrics are while enjoying their performance, this is it!

As a bonus, viewers get a glimpse behind the stage between songs. You can feel the energy as BTS runs under the stage preparing for the next set.

No one bests BTS when it comes to putting on a show
dorielbarochis15 September 2022
My family and I were one of the lucky attendees at this show. BTS is one of the most energetic, sincere and charismatic artists I have ever seen on stage (and going to concerts is my guilty pleasure). Once you go to a BTS concert, no other will be able to match your experience. I just hope not only Armys, but also the general public give this show a chance, so that they can understand the reason for the great love and support that the boys receive all over the world. This show is also a good way to get to know the group's vast and varied discography. I love that not only their comments, but also the lyrics of their songs, were translated into different languages.

True performers
sbereksiy15 September 2022
Not desappointed at all and great great surprise... I understand now why they are on the top and I definitly will go to their concert in the future, like the vibe in that concert is insane, the energy and performances of BTS are crazy, the music is great and it is obvious they are really singing live which is rare for a band who dance at the same time and run all over the stage.... BRAVO BRAVO.

Also what surprises me is their relation between them which makes you smile and laugh with them, so much positivity... These guys are really inspiring because not everyone can ride such a big crowd during more than 2 hours with so much songs no stop.

emukey15 September 2022
The performances were extremely thought out and you can feel the passion they pour into their art. Anyone can see that they are incomparable and this show is visually appealing as well as truly entertaining. The setlist was well paced and kept the energy up the entire show. Lyric translation would be a great feature, but if you're curious- doolset provides great translations for their sounds. Everything BTS does they do with their entire being. Its hard not to feel as if you're reliving the moment with them all over again. Definitely recommend whether you're an Army or just curious- they're wonderful people and artists.
