First off, if you're expecting a typical Cirque show with nothing but acrobatics, then you're likely to be disappointed. Ka is more like a ballet with the option to use "in the air" as a performance area. There were some amazing acrobatics and other tricks (the twirler was particularly good, she did things I've never seen anyone else do!), the focus is more on the story, so it's less of an all-out acrobatic-fest.
That said, the performance was amazing. I chose it over the others because it did seem more like a ballet- something I enjoy- and it did not disappoint. The stage was an amazing piece of work- sometimes it's there, sometimes it's not, sometimes it's vertical, sometimes it's on an incline- just seeing what they did with the stage next was fantastic fun. The performers did a great job and the guy who played the bodyguard for the twins was amazing- my only complaint was that he didn't get more stage time!
The music was great and the story was easy to follow. The pre-show shows were fun and the speakers inside the seats were a surprise and added a lot to the experience. If you just want to see one acrobatic trick after another, pick a different Cirque show. If you want to watch a cross between a ballet and aerial kung-fu flicks, this is the show for you.
Pros: Everything
Cons: None

I've seen all the Cirque Shows and this one is my least favorite. For the amount of money that was spent (over $400 for 4 people not including $37 for 3 waters and 1 bag of popcorn) I certainly expected a better show. They even refused to give us the standard "Locals Discount".
Just seemed like performers were going through the motions. I enjoyed "O" more than any other Cirque show and recommend that one above all others.
Overall it was a huge disappointment.
Pros: Cirque Show
Cons: Overpriced and worst one/tourist trap

This Hotel kicks butt. We stayed is really nice big suite. Feather pillow, mattress pads and a feather duvet. The bathroom had a bath tub and a separate Shower. The main room of the suite had a huge table, sofa and several chairs. Room service was outstanding. The only draw back was I did not personally like the casino and slot games they had to offer. However the room ,more than makes up for it so I am willing to head somewhere else to play slots.

The MGM is very large and probably the most confusing casinos in Vegas. But besides that it is a must in Vegas to see. There is so much to see and places to shop.

We went here to play some craps and it was not a pleasant experience. The dealers did not smile once and the pit boss was very rude. We will not go back!

I love this place so much. I came an stayed here for my 21st birthday and it was perfect. I love the Sports Bar that is there in the hotel. All of the staff members are super friendly. The most enjoyable thing is the fact that there is fresh roses everyday! I will always come back.

I guess I went to this show expecting something more spectacular. There were a few scenes that were pretty amzaing. But the story line was so weak it was hard to follow and understand. A few unneeded characters ...would have liked to have seen more pyrotechnics during the show and more arial stunts over the audience. The floating rotating stage was amazing...still trying to figure that one out. Could use a finale overhaul.
Pros: Stage technology was amazing
Cons: Too expensive for what you get out of the show.

I've seen 4 other Cirque shows in Vegas. This is the worst one in my opinion. For the price, your better off checking out any of the other 4. I agree with a previous post when it was stated that the performers were not very impressive. I usually leave Cirque with a sense of awe and amazement. That was not the case with this show. Fight scenes did not look real, they made shadow puppets, and the acrobatics were almost non-existent. The highlight is the costumes, the stage itself, and the two long-haired guys that were in the large spinning contraption towards the end. The soundtrack was also very well done.
Pros: Stage & lighting
Cons: Not quite on the same level as other Cirque shows

I will preface this by saying I participate in combat arts and I grew up watching various Cirque du Soleil shows. That being said, this show was very average, for Cirque. I was more entranced by the sets, costuming, and lighting than by most of the show itself. In fact, parts of the show were serious yawners. Non-martial arts fanatics may be impressed by the sloppy Wushu and stylized fights, which comments from the exiting crowd seemed to indicate. I wasn't. I wasn't at all impressed by the physical abilities of the performers, not when the very traditional Cirque show Mystere is still running, and IMHO, superior in that aspect. The music was good and very rock influenced, which is a nice change of pace from the usual ethereal choral base. If choosing a Cirque show to see in Vegas, my recommendation would still go to O at Bellagio.
