San Francisco Examiner
By the time Bono turns to the camera, reaching out to his audience in a typically theatrical plea for peace, love and understanding, one half expects his outstretched hand to surge through the screen and seize one of your own.

Boxoffice Magazine
When Bono reaches into the camera and out of the screen, there are few cinematic moments more intimate.
Laramie Movie Scope
It is a band apart, both in terms of music and message.

U23D captures the band and the excitement of their live shows in a way that no other medium could. The combination of art and science, technology and emotion, separates U23D from being just a nifty 3D experiment and elevates it to a pop mast

Shadows on the Wall
The rock mega-band U2 has made so many concert films that it's hard to get excited about this one.... But the film is a revelation, redefining 3D live-action moviemaking.

Ultimately, U2 3D will infuriate as many as it dazzles - attendance depends on how much Bono-me you can stomach or how grabbed you are by 3D cinema.

If you already love U2 your conviction will be strengthened. If you hate them, it will confirm your worst fears. Either way, the 3D technology is fantastic.
