Rammstein: Paris (2016) Reviews
Impossible to watch!
The edit on this concert is so bad, the frames change so fast it will give you a head ache. The music is great, but the editing doesn't not fell like a live concert but like a music video. They should re make it without Jonas and with his edit. I love Rammstein, and the live concerts before where so good, but for this I am so disappointed
Entertaining but not thanks to the visuals
Right off the bat: I had a fun time watching this in a cinema filled with Rammstein fans. The song selection and the stage-show was all top notch really. From a filmmaking standpoint on the other hand there were many things that bugged me. Let's start with the camera-work. There is a wide range of coverage and a great selection of images. What I would've liked to see was the use of high shutter speeds to match the energy of the audio - but that is probably more of a personal preference. There also is some action-camera footage which for the most part is highly stylized. In my opinion this is the only way to include footage like this because let's face it the qualities absolutely sub par especially in such a difficult lighting situation. But unfortunately some non-stylized action-camera footage made it into the film which I always found to be really off-putting. Like suddenly switching to a fan-made YouTube video...Also there was some slow-motion coverage which was a welcome addition. In conclusion the camera-work was well executed wit some stylistic choices I found unfitting. The part that bothered me the most was the editing. All in all there were 3 editors working on the film and it seemed to me that there were some songs were they matched the dynamic of the audio fairly well with the visuals. But for the most part unfortunately it was just a chaotic mess with seemingly no motivation. Especially when it comes to music- & concert-videos an edit can do so much good but can also be so disastrous. I am sad to say that in this case it was mostly the latter. Every song was introduced with a unique typography of its title. Those were always hit and miss in my opinion. Some worked pretty well and seemed very thought through. But there were many others that seemed just amateurish. Whether it was the font choice or the animation or the pacing, sometimes all three! I am not usually a very typography fixated guy but here I could not help it. Another creative decision I just cannot wrap my head around is the use of cgi. And I am not talking about grading or light tweaking but actual 3D effects. There was this one scene where we get a close-up of Till's face and the gave him - and I am dead serious here - snake eyes and a snake tongue. And it doesn't even look sophisticated! It is so obviously computer generated and it did not tie into anything. Another scene was that during a keyboard solo they added lightning strikes to the hands of the keyboard player. Why?! Just why? The images were strong enough to stand on their own. These effects did not make them better, they ruined them! I am not sure about the sound editing. It could have very well been the cinema but it seemed to me that the music was entirely a stereo-mixdown. Which is okay for home entertainment but I can't help but feel like this is a wasted opportunity to give the sound more impact. Another thing that amazed me were the credits. Never in my life have I seen credit roll going so fast! Which was why it wasn't too bothersome to sit there and wait for the obligatory after-credit-scene which is so popular nowadays.
Rammstein delivers, Editing over the top.
First off, Rammstein delivers as always, With a show that no other bands get close to. I would give Rammstein max stars, But sadly the editing is so over the top and like a kid has gone mental in sony vegas. Rammstein don't need lightning, snake eyes/tongues, breathe flames etc edited in... They already deliver a over the top show, And then all these CGI effects are added? It makes the DVD look clumsy and not really a live experience, cause it is so edited. Not only that, But its chaotic, They change the camera angle almost after every word in the lyrics, Not only is it annoying and tiring to watch, But it makes you miss many of the highlight parts, cause camera is constantly changing or stuff is edited in some silly way so you cant see what is going on. Slow motion and all that it looks great when its not overdone and the sound seems good. But a huge letdown is the edited explosion sounds, Where is the power and the sound of the blasts? For most parts you only hear a little bang with some glass breaking. Their explosions are way louder and hard hitting then that. On some of the songs the lightning is so dark due to editing so you cant even see if there is a crowd there, Even when the stage have all their lights on, You can see this during links 234, Till sings links, Crowd sings, Lights blasts the stage, But no crowd to see, cause they have used a blue/dark filter over the whole movie. So again, Rammstein does a perfect job as always, Jonas & Co did not, They destroyed what could have been a concert DVD with as show the world has never seen, But you were more interested in fancy editing. But it was worth the watch and i will watch it many times.
Great music, but visually chaotic
Excellent concert show. It is possibly the best live performance of Rammstein I've ever seen. But on the screen, it doesn't work for me. Sound is great. With my eyes closed, I could enjoy supreme atmosphere at the concert. Especially drums are on such volume level that you can feel it by whole body, but it is still a part of other music and together all works. Excellent job! Camera is beautiful. Close shots, far shots, angles, artistic lighting, all this work fine, saturated contrast and brightness moved to black tones on screen is amazing. Flake's performance on stage is amazing. Again. But... I had a problem to get into the show. Reason is simple: editing is furious. What can work on a single song as an emphasize of impression in the studio, does not work in a full-length live show. When I watch the concert, I am trying to focus on details, what is happening on stage. Especially Rammstein concert show usually has a stunning choreography and all that fireworks and other stuff excellently supplement the show. But, if editing to completely different shot is present almost after each word from lyrics (really!!) or almost after all rhythm beat, it is unable to see, what is happening on the stage. You cannot even focus on contributions of single musicians. Simply sad, I couldn't enjoy that. And the stage happening is the main subject of Rammstein show. I would like to see this concert show directed in more standard way (similar to Rammstein in Amerika or Live aus Berlin). And I wouldn't wonder if anybody had an epileptic seizure during screening.
Great Show but maniac editing ruined it
Was an amazing show, amazing band, amazing performance, many songs BUT the film is cut WAY TOO fast. The manic editing is absolutely exhausting to watch and honestly unenjoyable. The editing is just awful! Far too many cuts - its actually uncomfortable to watch. It should carry a warning for epilepsy sufferers. After watching the movie at cinema I was wondering how Rammstein could give this a go, since they have kind of a optical trademark which the director straight p1ss3d on. Not just the very fast cuts and the annoying digital effects, which don't fit to Rammstein in any way, but also the different typo to show the song names. The show was amazing as always, such a shame that Jonas Åkerlund ruined it. The audio is great in my opinion.
