I like the band more usually

"Pink Floyd: The Final Cut" is a 19-minute live action short film that includes several songs by the band in the title. This one is from 1983, so it will have its 35th anniversary already next year. I must say I really like some of Pink Floyd's work, but the performances we heard in here left me really cold. The story, i.e. the video, wasn't much better and the inclusion of people dressing up like Napoleon, Adolf Hitler or Maggie Thatcher looked rather foolish. Of course, there is always a bit of absurdity to PF's works and songs, but in this very case here I must say it sadly wasn't working out. So I think this one was rather underwhelming, but hey it's okay, not everyone can be a winner. So as I said I like Pink Floyd I would not even recommend this one to Pink Floyd fans, except the very biggest perhaps as several cast and crew members have appeared in other works by the band too. All in all a thumbs-down from me. Not recommended, but it's fairly difficult to get a hand on anyway, so if you don't find it don't worry. You aren't really missing much here.
