Product: Dimensional Connections - A Computer Animation Vision
Rating: 2.0
Missed potential and lame music
There is some really great computer animation from this era, a.k.a some of the Mind's Eye series and the like. But this one was, basically, a bore.First, the music was completely uninteresting and showed little or no connection to the animation. It sounded like half-baked baroque or classical done on a good-quality Casio.I could live with that, though, if the animation really grabbed me. Or, even better, if they seemed to have anything to do with each other. But the animation was, as my title implies, a tease. There were many, many brief moments were something truly interesting appeared only to be immediately abandoned for yet another kaleidoscope sequence. There was a lot of those. No, way too many of those. And I'm sorry, but I can pick one up at the dollar store if I want to see that. Also, if you hate having things flashed at you, there were a lot of those annoying instances where they transition from one image to the next with a bright flash. Very obnoxious.For really good animation and music, in favor of this I'd highly recomment Televoid (music by a mix of Queensryche and Kansas members) and The Gate to the Mind's Eye (Thomas Dolby). Both these have much more interesting animation and really great music. As for this, if you already have any 90's animation that you really like, you'll be missing absolutely nothing by skipping this one.
