I was skeptical about going to the cinema to watch a 2hr 15 minute concert film, however after leaving the cinema I have absolutely no regrets.
This combined elements of cinema, theater and of course music.
The accompanying images shown during the songs complimented the music perfectly, and the sets where incredible, especially the Battersea power station which was recreated during the performance of songs from the Animals (1977) album. (Everyones lowkey favourite floyd album)
I will say I did find the 10 minutes of aggressive Trump bashing during the performance of Pigs slightly excessive, especially as Waters seems to want to promote peace and unity with his music, I did feel this could have used a little more subtlety.
Apart from that, I have absolutely nothing bad to say about this film, I actually found myself with tears in my eyes during the performance of Another brick in the wall PT 2, I styled it out by not wiping my eyes, and my friends still think I am a tough guy.
The musicians were absolutely astonishing, all of them put in a flawless performance.
Highly recommended!!!
