criticism

Katja Scherle ( Laut.de ) criticized the poor live sound, which would only be acceptable on DVD in stereo . Camera work is also not varied. Only occasionally would a " split screen setting" allow several views of the same situation, otherwise it would not be very varied. The extras are not ideal either:

"Wish Live" should have offered "a little more". For the concert, which is cut almost too brashly between the tracks, there is the slightly more baroque "Movie" version. But it seems rather embarrassed to be inflated with filling material such as small interview snippets, backstage recordings and off-the-record additions. Even the obligatory encore, announced as a "bonus", must first be clicked separately in the menu. Less pathos in the concert, more additions afterwards would have been desirable. "
