I was not onto rock at all, and was persuaded to see this with with a friend. I was blown away by the music as I was a classical music nerd. It made a huge impact and a Pink Floyd fan for life.

Amazing movie that fits the incredible music of Pink Floyd.

This movie is a bit different than any other one out there. There is mostly no dialog and voice acting, it’s all being translated by music. Pink Floyd has made a fever dream monstrosity about a famous musician “Pink.” Who is ignorant about society and the world around him and just watches war. All of his childhood memories and war-like flashbacks of his dead father connect throughout the film. In fact the storytelling is so good that not only is the imagery and music heavily provided by a host of great animation, unique sections and really good music. But scene by scene, you're seeing Pink grow as a character and how he acts. Never does anything feel disconnected or loose throughout this flick. Except for the ending where it’s not really explained why Pink is in court, but is provided by some of the best animation in the film. If I was to rank the overall presentation, animation and music; it would go like this. The music is genuinely great with a lot of catchy and emotional tunes and some decent ones here and there. Dirty Woman is my least favorite because of how it’s played out and the overall theme. But I cannot deny that the fantastic animation has really helped shine this movie in a way. Details within the presentation are astonishing because it’s portrayed very well scene by scene, and helps the storytelling and overall structure feel natural. If you dig unique movies like this or just a fan of Pink Floyd’s work, you will love this. It is a great and fascinating film of storytelling and emotional rides through musical tunes and wonderfully surreal animation.

The Wall movie is strongly subjective to politics, music career, and most importantly, life issues that lead people into madness. The movie combines all possible factors of life that play a huge role in altering someone's mental health. The Metaphorical Wall, representing mental isolation from the world, is by far the most creative idea I've seen in both music and film industry. Loved and enjoyed the animations (keep in mind that the movie was small-budget and released in 1982.) definitely would recommend watching and listening to the album independently

Maybe not the most coherent film as the non-linear storyline doesn’t make it always easy to follow. But the movie is very sincere in the way it grapples multiple themes and the wall both as a metaphor and the album blends quite well in. If you like Pink Floyd, this does add good visualisation to many of the songs on the album.

Great while on shroom

A truly exceptional motion picture. Alan Parker was a great director.

As others have mentioned, it's not for everyone, if you like pink floyd and you truly understand the meaning behind the album then it's a must see.

wow...this is just art.

Stands up better than you think. You watched this when you were a kid and told everyone you like it. Watch again and you will find you actually do. True artistry.

Awesome movie, it's a musical to most of the wall cd. There's no real talking or anything.

I truly think that this movie is the GREATEST music film of all time. All though some parts were confusing, it was all part of the artsy vibe. And me being one of the only 11 year old Pink Floyd fans I know of, Id say it's DEFFENITLY 5 stars all the way

brilliant a great take on the album and a fair effort from bob geldolph i enjoyed this greatly.

A true classic masterpiece

As a big Pink Floyd fan, I was very excited to watch this movie. But at the end I was disappointed and extremely disturbed.

Terrifyingly striking animation, consistently great songs, and a feeling of a type of anger and angst that is almost indescribable help distract from the unbalanced story and the very uncomfortable, almost dirty feeling you have whilst watching it abrasively unfold and contort in such a sporadic and jolty fashion.

My second favorite movie of all time

It's a great movie, and really helps bring context if all you ever heard was a few hits on the radio. I've seen it many times, and it is one of the few movies I'd like to see again.

Pink Floyd The Wall (1982) is nothing short of an incredible visual representation of the human condition and how trauma or an absence of something or someone affects an individual. The Wall itself is a device used to represent closing one's self off from the outside world, completely alienating them from everyone and everything. Pink Floyd The Wall not only demonstrates the collapsing mental state as a result of such trauma as what The Wall's protagonist, Pink, goes through, but also how the overwhelming trauma begins deteriorating his physical and emotional state. This film is a perfect example of how to turn a concept album into a visual masterpiece that keeps the audience entranced and involved in the dark world that Pink is attempting to shut himself out of. The dark world turned him into an emotionally crippled shell of a human being he once was while longing to feel human again, yet wanting to continue to hide behind his wall.

I have watched this movie since i was 8 yrs old. My take on this movie is that it is a masterpiece. In my opinion, Waters takes us through his tough upbringing, to a time and place where he is vulnerable and crying for help. This help never comes, and so, he retaliates, mostly toward mother figures/ people misunderstanding him. The outcome is that he finds a new audience of people who, in their own lives, are confused and angry. He develops the rhetoric that he believes he should be adopting (all the while, yearning for guidance). This leads him to become something of a public figure for the ‘broken'. As a result he is a ‘leader' and now faces the wrath of the outside world. He is not accepted by the majority again and he has nowhere to turn to. He goes crazy as he feels he has explored all avenues of normality, then explored acceptance on it's own as a leader of an extremist movement. All this character wanted was, to fit in and be normal. He tried every nuance of human behaviour. He came to realise he didn't fit in anywhere. Smarter than your average, but not sociable enough to fit in amongst the upper echilon. Crackin film mate pure class 😂
