Review: "Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour – The Final Show"

This 3.5-hour extravaganza, released simultaneously with a companion documentary series, might feel like self-aggrandizing overkill—but only to non-Swifties. Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour – The Final Show captures Swift's joyous, clear-eyed, flirtatious, youthful energy and her connection with her fans, even from a stadium stage. She makes a point of telling them they're the ones who created the community feel of her historic tour, and the "glorious" feeling of singing together in a stadium (especially post-pandemic).

As the camera pans around the packed Vancouver stadium (60,000 people!), we see audience members—mostly women, but some men, and lots of little girls—crying, screaming, laughing, singing, filming, and all around having a moment. Swift puts on a real show, and you get the sense her fans would be just as wowed if she were alone on the stage instead of surrounded by the multitude of screens and dancers. If you weren't one of the 10 million who could afford a ticket to the actual tour, the filmed version offers an enjoyable substitute.
