Watch Kiss - Rock Las Vegas

After more than four decades of their legendary career, Kiss - Rock Las Vegas takes a behind-the-scenes look at the group's Las Vegas residency shows in 2014. Directed by Devin Dehaven and produced by Barry Summers, the movie captures the iconic four members of Kiss – Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley, Tommy Thayer, and Eric Singer – as they deliver their over-the-top, theatrical performance in front of their die-hard fans.

The concert film provides a high-octane experience with blistering rock music, huge pyrotechnics, and awe-inspiring visuals that take the audience energy to a whole new level.

The film starts with a glimpse of how Kiss has transformed Las Vegas into their ultimate playground. As the opening credits roll, we see the City of Sin's iconic neon lights and billboards replaced by the iconic logo of the band.

The crude, tongue-in-cheek humor that Kiss always brings to the stage is highlighted with their opening act. The stage promptly gets filled with golden foil as the Kiss classic song, "Detroit Rock City," begins to play, and as soon as the band makes their entrance, it was apparent that they meant business.

As the movie progresses, we see the band performing some of their greatest hits, like "Sure Know Something," "Deuce," "Love Gun," "Lick It Up," and "Shout It Out Loud," to name a few.

What makes the Kiss shows stand out is their over-the-top performances, complete with extravagant makeup, theatrical costumes, and an endless supply of pyrotechnics. The massive screens behind the band have video projections that add another layer of theatrical effects to the show.

One of the best moments of the film is when the band performs "Firehouse." The tune starts with Simmons spitting fire and Blood drooling from his mouth, followed by an astonishing guitar solo from Thayer. As if this wasn't enough, a Kiss concert wouldn't be complete without Stanley's incredible vocals that hit extraordinary notes as he flew over the arena on a harness.

Another highlight is the acoustic section, where the band performs "Beth," "I Love It Loud" and "Black Diamond," With Eric Singer taking the lead vocal on "Beth, " creating a beautiful moment with the fans.

The concert film uses multi-cameras to give a glimpse of the band and their fans from all angles, with backstage footage providing a behind-the-scenes look at how everything comes together, from the makeup to the stage production.

Though the movie is front-loaded with some of the band's most popular hits, the later part of the movie consists of the same performance format, only with different tracks. It still maintains the energy of the film, but it will not be as appealing to some who need more variety in their music.

Overall, Kiss - Rock Las Vegas, is a must-see film for every Kiss fan. Even if you are a first-time viewer of Kiss, this film serves as an excellent introduction to the band's theatrical performances, showmanship, and some of the greatest rock music of all time.

The band shows no signs of slowing down, and this film captures them at their absolute best. The cinematography, sound quality, and overall presentation are top-notch, making the movie experience an exciting and fantastic musical experience.

In conclusion, Kiss - Rock Las Vegas is an exciting, over-the-top, larger-than-life concert film that captures the spectacle and energy of a Kiss performance. Whether you are a long-time fan of Kiss, looking to relive their unmatched theatrics or experiencing them for the first time, this film is a must-see that will leave you entertained and feeling like a member of the Kiss army.
