The early reviews are in and critics have been won over:
The Los Angeles Times " ... The most supremely confident entertainer of his generation ... "
Entertainment Weekly "B+"
The Hollywood Reporter " ... Timberlake not only brought sexy back, he brought it back with the promise of a bright future."
OC Register " ... Working his way across every inch of a magnificent in- the-round stage that grants an up-close experience for those positioned either at center ice or at the goal-ends of the arena, Timberlake was positively commanding from the opening 'FutureSex/LoveSound' through the closing 'SexyBack' ... "
Arizona Daily Star " ... This wasn't just a concert; it was an event ... and mere in-between-song banter from Timberlake left many only able to respond with deafening, Beatle-mania shrieks ... "
The Press-Enterprise " ... The popping and locking, the otherworldly falsetto, the enthralling stage persona ... Just two albums into his solo career Timberlake has shed the trappings of teen-idol-boy-band cog and emerged as pop music's premier live performer ... "
Justin Timberlake accompanied by a 14 piece band and back up dancers is performing in the round, bringing the intimate mood of his acclaimed Live Listening Sessions into the arena setting, and essentially making every seat a great seat and creating the ultimate 360 degree multi-media viewing experience.
