5 stars "Goodbye, all you people, there's nothing you can say" - but I hope that I can say something that will change your opinion you have on this film. On this true masterpiece of both video and audio world. Reviewers here seems to be shy (or calm/patient enough) to give it masterpiece and there are also some who considers this as low rate "thing" that doesn't matter much. So what's more important. Being objective, or do subjective review ? I tell you one thing. I thought about this a lot, until I saw one post on PA forum that finally persuaded me. There's nothing like objective review (even wikipedia is trying to be objective [but note that they lack musical / film reviews - guess why). So being subjective is what matters. However, trying to be at least a little bit objective is what separate us from being morons (don't take this statement so seriously, there are for sure logical flaws in it)

The Wall from 1982 is the one that get me into prog (music, mighty music contained here). What's better prove that it's so masterpiece-like than that I know this one for all my life, seen it maybe 20 times (I've seen more times only Back To the Future, hehe, all parts counted separate) and still find it interesting, still looking (and finding) new aspect and little things that escaped my sight before. I'll not talk about how (lack of adjectives) great the music is (for me at least), it's evident that I'm enjoying every bit of it. But synchronization of sound and image (and I'm not talking about sync errors, I mean how these visuals can capture the beauty of this music), simply impressing. First my father presented me this (which changed my life in more ways that I ever feel is possible, for instance - got me thinking more about world around me), then it was first thing I presented my girl on our first date (she, being long time fan of this group & film, was surprised, pleasantly of course), so another level of interest.

5(+), it's not as biased rating, as it's from someone who's deeply in love with it (something like that, not literary), deeply admires and appreciate it. By the prog way, wonderful animations.
