Superb display and an quite original idea. Adds meaning and story to visuals, that have been used for the entire Simulation Theory Would Tour. The story feels relevant to the lyrics on display, therefore you get invested in the story surrounding the concert. Superb stuff overall. I mean can we just have a minute to appreciate the visuals, OH MY GOD
Musically, Muse delivers as usual, they really sell there identity, while also selling their renowned skills at engaging the crowd, this time through a whole other dimension.
Now there ain't many negatives, but I had a few. Nothing major. One thing is the sound mixing, I did accustomed to it later in the movie, but some of the background music did bother me at times. My main negative is however the OVERUSE OF SLOW MOTION, yes it makes for some cool shots, but takes you out of the immersion completely. It's definitely a subjective editing style, but 1/3 through it started to annoy me and I couldnt help noticing it, especially as it felt like it was there once every minute.
TL;DR 9/10 for an immersive experience, with a cool and relevant plot, that really made the format stand out. Lots of bonus points for the stunning visuals and no doubt a big score for the music on display. It's major let down is the editing, but might not be the most noticeable to viewers
