I only saw a half an hour, mostly the sixties and seventies stuff. I agree that the commentators needed to shut up.
But even without that, it was dull, dull, dull.
I think using TV/Film clips is cheating. There was too much close up stuff. The trick of this as theatre is to make it big and original. The parts I saw were neither.
The complicated projections on the audience part of the stadium were impressive. But that was technology. On the ground, it was like dinner theatre with glow in the dark stickies.
I am too tired to continue. Beckham driving that boat was hot. Hell, the boat alone was hot.
