Anime-ted Bliss!,
This review is from: Interstella 5555 [DVD] (DVD)
After seeing the first few animated videos that accompanied the singles from Discovery on MTV etc I really hoped that Daft Punk would be able to complete their dream and release the whole film. This DVD does just that, and surpasses every expectation.If you were ever a fan of Battle of The Planets, Ulysses 31 and their ilk then the animated content of Interstella 5555 will suprise and delight; that the musical input works perfectly with the unfolding storyline is a complementary joy. And any suspicions that the animation would be budget-constrained soon evaporate: Daft Punk chose one of Japan's best anime teams to work with and it shows. The characters are appealing, the backgrounds beautifully drawn and the intensely psychedelic flavour of the whole film is spot-on. The storyline is also surprisingly easy to follow, despite the total lack of dialogue. Sure, there are some of the traditional 'what the?' moments that come with any anime movie, but these add to the fun. And the package as a whole works to remind you of how great Discovery is as an album and how great Japanese cartoons are too. Well worth buying.

Fantastic,

This is a great film. The soundtrack is the great Daft Punk album, Discovery. The animation is brilliantly done and fits with the music. I went in to see the film, a little unsure, but was more than happy that I had gone to see it.I'm certainly going to get the DVD when it's released and would recommend this beyond doubt.

Life-Changing Stuff.....,
This review is from: Interstella 5555 [DVD] (DVD)
I'm a massive fan of the "Discovery" album's videos, and was impressed that they had a clear and immersive narrative flowing through them, whilst still being decent and watchable in their own right. So when i heard that daft punk had made the videos for every track on their album, i was absolutely amazed. here was something i had to buy!Sitting back on the friday morning I got it, with the curtains drawn, i immersed myself in a world of music, other worlds and evil cults. The film was AMAZING, and although the narrative isn't something necessarily new, the marriage of such beautiful audio and visual is absolutely stunning. As i purchased the special edition, i also recieved a copy of Daft Club, the remix album of Discovery, which although I already owned, was a pleasent suprise. This is excellent value, as anyone not owning the Daft Club CD will be doubly grateful. I suggest you check out the Cosmo Vitelli remix of "Face to Face", a new spin on an already classic track. Overall, i'm finding it very difficult to put into words the sheer gorgeousness of the film. everything about it, from its audio brilliance to its colourful, exotic visuals, is just sublime. Even if it were 40 quid, it'd be a bloody bargain! Buy It!
