Jonas Brothers: The 3D Concert Experience is the latest title to be unleashed by Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment aimed at the young teens - released on Blu-ray June 30th, 2009.

The Jonas Brothers, Kevin, Joe and Nick Jonas, are a teen boy band who gained popularity on the Disney Channel children’s television network.

The band has released four albums, starred in the Disney Channel Original Movie Camp Rock and sold over eight million albums.

Jonas Brothers: The 3D Concert Experience is pretty much what it says - a 3D taping of a show at New York City’s Madison Square Garden arena that was in presented in theaters in Disney Digital 3-D and IMAX 3D.

The concert includes special guest appearances from Demi Lovato and Taylor Swift and the live 3D music footage is intercut with 2D behind the scenes and candid footage.

The 3D on this title uses Cyan and Red colour separation glasses - 4 pairs are included in the package - and a 2D version of the concert movie is also an option.

Jonas Brothers: The 3D Concert Experience was directed by Bruce Hendricks, who also directed Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert Tour.

The movie was pretty much hated by critics - it earned a Rotten Tomatoes score of 23% and IMDb score of 1.3/10.

The low IMDb score is no doubt due to the adverse reaction to the squeaky clean Christian teen band from pretty much anyone over 20 years of age.

In the cinema Jonas Brothers: The 3D Concert Experience earned $19.2M at the US box office.

The video on the disc is an AVC 1080p encode and is presented in its original aspect ratio of 1.85:1.

The main audio is lossless DTS-HD Master Audio with 7.1 channels.

The disc is a dual layer BD50 and is coded for Region A.

Special features include not only a Digital Copy for both iTunes and Windows, Disney also included a standard DVD of the concert movie so the kids can watch in the car or in their own room, etc.

As well as already being an extended film with songs not included in the theatrical release, there are also two additional songs in the supplements.
