Critical The concerts received mostly positive reviews and critical acclaim. The
Ottawa Sun reviewed the concert at Scotiabank Place and wrote "Streisand's voice was truly exceptional. Intimate, yet on a grand scale, only she could do a concert that was small enough to feel personal, yet big enough to feel like a Broadway musical." Miriam Di Nunzio from the
Chicago Sun-Times wrote "At 70, the singer still possesses one of the most pristine voices in music, a voice that completely and sumptuously envelops a room, even one the size of the cavernous United Center. There is an intimacy and honesty in Streisand's deliverya rare treat in this age of lip-synched, overblown concert extravaganzas."
The Jerusalem Post wrote on her opening night in Philadelphia, "Her voice (and cleavage) were better than many of the stars half her age that are currently touring."
The Vancouver Sun stated that "The perennially decorated singer/actor/writer/director left an indelible mark on her Vancouver audience with a performance that was pure, undiluted class." The show also garnered some negative reviews. The
Oakland Tribune reviewed the San Jose concert at HP Pavilion and stated that Streisand relied too much on guest stars and wasted stage time with other performers. Jim Harrington wrote that the show "left too little time for what really should've been the focus of the nightStreisand's voice... I indeed look forward to seeing Streisand 'Some Other Time' and when it happens, hopefully she'll leave some of her friends and family members behind."
