Storyline
Featured review
A waste of the IMAX format for a promotional video.
Imagine an Imax screen that's 4 stories high. Now imagine seeing a blurry photo of some thistles while choir music plays. It's jarring and at times nauseating. A lot of this video is shot with bad camera angles and very little movement of the camera. In fact it looks like the Heaven's Gate cult got back together to sing Gospel.
The good news is that the performance by the Sunday Service Choir is excellent. This music video disappointingly fails to showcase them as the vocal force they should be.
I don't know why they shot in this art installation. It makes the whole thing claustrophobic with its extreme close-ups. An audience doesn't need to see Kanye West's meter long chest hairs. An audience doesn't need to be made to feel cramped when IMAX is made to exude space.
Speaking of which, Kanye's barely on screen for 5 minutes. A lot of it, covered in shadow.
I recommend renting this one and enjoying it on your own TV with a promotion credit or something. It's really half an hour. The people in the audience that bought the large popcorn tubs and sodas didn't even have a chance to get started with their munching before the credits came up.
