Have you ever wondered what would happen if Queen and Leiji Matsumoto join forces? If you did... man you have lots of free time and a great imagination, aren't ya? Anyways, this is the result!
First point to consider: the visual aspect. By itself, this video is great. High-quality animation with your typical Matsumoto characters (which are very typical: all his characters look extremely similar). The story of this video is as crazy as the song itself, with two parallel realities that collide because of two necklaces (I think...). Astronauts and space battles are included, and some beautiful landscapes are there too, with flowers and stuff (just check the image of the main page n_n).
Second point to consider: sound (duh). This is one of Queen's most acclaimed songs (with all that that implies), and the general consensus places it as one of the best songs of the last century. In just six minutes we have a part hard rock, a part ballad, a part opera, and no chorus at all. That may sound weird to the ones who don't know the song (who?), but believe me, it all blends perfectly. Freddie Mercury interpretation's is impeccable.
The third point is how visuals and sound combines. Here is where this video, sadly, fails. Many, many times animation and sound just don't mix, and most of the movements are made out of time (both with lyrics or instrumental parts). This just don't make sense, since several years before this, Matsumoto participate in Interestella555, a one hour movie that, basically, was a music video for a whole album! (Daft Punk's second work, Discovery. BTW, is an amazing movie, I highly recommend it).
Anyway, despite that problem, this is Bohemian Rhapsody with a new video, and that's always interesting. I recommend this to all the Queen fans, to the ones who like the song, and specially to the ones that never heard about it. This is your chance!

Alguna vez se preguntaron qué pasaría si Leiji Matsumoto y Queen unieran fuerzas? Bueno, si lo hicieron, aparte de tener mucho tiempo libre y una gran imaginación... este es el resultado!
Primer punto a tener en cuenta: el aspecto visual. El video es en sí mismo es genial. Una animación de gran calidad, con los personajes típicos de Matsumoto (que son muy típicos: casi son clones unos de otros xD). La historia del video es tan delirante como la canción misma, con dos realidades paralelas que se entrecruzan a causa de dos collares (creo). Astronautas y batallas espaciales incluidas.
Segundo punto a tener en cuenta: el sonido. Esta es una de las canciones más aclamadas de Queen (con todo lo que eso implica), y el consenso general la ubica como una de las mejores del siglo pasado. En solo seis minutos tenemos una parte hard rock, una parte balada, parte opera, y ningún estribillo. La interpretación de Freddie Mercury es impecable, como era habitual en él. Una pieza única que no tiene mucho sentido que detalle, dado que la gran mayoría ya la conoce n_n.
El tercer punto es como se combinan la canción y la animación. Acá es donde este video, tristemente, falla. En muchos, muchos momentos, la animación y la música simplemente no combinan y la mayoría de los movimientos son hechos a destiempo en relación la música. Es insólito que esto pasara, mas teniendo en cuenta que, varios años antes, el mismo Matsumoto participo en Interestella555, una película de más de una hora que era, básicamente un video musical que adapta todo un álbum! (el segundo trabajo del grupo Daft Punk, Discovery. Es un trabajo de altísima calidad, lo recomiendo ampliamente).
Como sea, a pesar de que el video y la canción no pegan mucho, vale la pena ver esto porque, bueno, es BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY, con un video nuevo y original. Recomendable a todos aquellos a los que les guste la canción, o más aun, si no la conocen. read more

The animation itself is very good,
nothing to say about the music (just perfect)
but the relation music-video, personally I didn't liked it
I don't know what was Matsumoto's interpretation to the song
but have nothing in common, It goes to nowhere
Recommendations
|
|
- Both have same art style
- Both are music videos
- Both of them have the involvement of Matsumoto Leiji
- Bohemian Rhapsody is shorter than Interstella5555
