Leviathan live experience transfers from stadiums to cinemas
, the mood was warm and celebratory: a high school sleepover with friends. Looking up at the screen, there was a giant Taylor Swift gliding across the frame, and also the inevitable outline of fans underlining her, swaying along in the front row. Your mileage might vary on seeing the silhouettes of strangers, collectively dancing, singing, and sharing deeply cathartic moments with each other while the spectacle ofplays out.
A showcase that spans 17 years of Swift’s music, from her 2006 self-titled debut album to last year’smight prove a challenging watch for the casual listener. However, Swifties , are in for a true blast. If there’s one thing that can be said for, it’s that it doesn’t lose momentum, with all the performers and musicians carrying the energy, theatricality, and quality without missing a beat.
We also get a great sense of scope, with wide shots of Los Angeles’ SoFi Stadium, where the film was shot. There are also moments you aren’t always able to appreciate during a live performance: a closer look at Swift’s immersive sets, a better sense of the choreography and effort it takes to perform on this scale, and flashes of the fans themselves, their raw emotion captured forever. The result is a solid sense of place, but scale and emotion too, ramping up the excitement with every frame.
While, on the whole, the movie is a fast-paced, engaging watch, there are also some slower moments. This is inevitable in any artist’s setlist, but especially Swift’s, and thankfully, the selections from 2020 back-to-back releasesgive Swift and company to breathe. It’s necessary for the viewers, too.
