Customer Rating:      Summary: Really good Comment: I really enjoyed this movie and I ordered a copy for all of my friends.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Interstella in my hands!! Comment: Well, what can I say? I've been looking this one from a long time. Japanese animation with french electronic dance music? A pretty weird combination but with excellent results.
It's a very good release with the complete history of the videos we've seen on MTV. The audio quality is great but the video lacks of definition. This last point is too bad considering the excellent job done by the legendary Toei Animation Studios.
It's a shame it doesn't include the extras from the japanese release. They would added a great value to this item.
Can we expect a Special Edition in the future? With aspect radio modified for widescreen screens? Maybe for the Blu-Ray release?? Who knows.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Awesome Comment: I loved this movie. I had listened to Daft Punk quite often, but never knew that such a movie existed. I just got the DVD a few weeks ago and have already watched it several times. If you are a fan of Daft Punk and Anime you're sure to love this movie.
Menus are so-so. The extra stuff was a little hard to navigate. Other than those minor things, I have nothing to complain about.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great Movie\OST Comment: the Album is great and the animation is great.

- and also if you don't!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Kaleidoscopic Epic! Comment: I knew this was the genuine deal the moment I saw this DVD up for grabs. "Interstella 5555: The 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem" is the entire Daft Punk album "Discovery" translated into Japanese animation. The entire film is set to Daft Punk's fabulous disco-rockin' beats!
The film's legendary director, Leiji Matsumoto, introduces his masterpiece with a brief interview as to his epic vision. Instantly we are transported into another dimension of kaleidoscopic sight and sound. There is no dialogue considering the music drives the plot of the story.
Toward the end of the film, I must admit, the music tends to wind down with the plot of the story, with the track "Too Long" being, of course, too long!
All in all, a masterwork of Japanese animation!
