Re: The Chemical Brothers Movie - Dont Think
i'm sorry,

i watched this, and although i'm only
a fan of the first album and some of
the second album... i didn't care too
much for this video..

1) WAY TOO MANY SHOTS OF THE CROWD!
every 5 seconds is too much and it was incredibly
boring to see them in every single shot

2) too many strobes, lasers, etc, that have all been
used before

3) way too cliched effects and visuals, not one single
one hasn't been seen or used by other groups...

ballon drops? really? running animals? architecture?

so many groups have used these before, and too a much
better effect..

=====================================
save your money, and don't bother getting this...

to me the only good thing was the actual live sound mix...

if i had wanted to actually see the band, i would have
watched them live on the actual tour.. that way i could
have watched them, and at least seen and heard the
music in context (although i would probably have
the same feelings about the visuals eventually)

this video doesn't seem to capture them at all,
or it just such a broken experience to me that
it misses the point.. (or i missed the point)..

very disappointing...

Well, i haven't seen the Chems live, but have been a longtime fan. And i loved this video. Very trippy and a truly unique viewpoint from the audience. Sure, i'd like a bit more close ups of Tom an Ed doing their thing, a little less of the venue-goers freaking out. But great visuals, amazing synch with the music, a fine mix that gets to the best of the tracks. Cliches? Maybe. But i'd rather see all of this than any concert without.
