Being a huge Lost in Translation fan, I was definitely skeptical about this video, figuring there was no way or no real reason for why you'd make the pairing, but I was extremely and pleasantly surprised. Great work here 
Very innovative and fun to watch. I said it once but you're definitely on my list of editors to watch. Keep up the good work man.

Even though Lost in Translation wasn't the most accurate description of the culture and place it was shot at, it was a rather good movie to go watch with someone. That in mind I had no idea what to expect from this AMV.
Hm, after watching I was slightly disappointed. You started the video very nicely, with the various overlays here and there mixing anime with live-action quite extraordinarily, but slowly the pacing degenerated into a rather randomly done action video set around the word "jump". It seemed like you dropped what good and original you had in the beginning, and decided to just quickly finish the video.
Maybe cutting the song short would have made it easier to keep the original concept what you had going on in the beginning? Because to me at least, it seems the first half of this AMV is genious, but someone lacked the effort to finish it to the end. I would easily give it 4 stars but it goes too much downhill after the first segment.
Just my thoughts.
Forgot to mention that there's something wrong with the video quality. Either you had a really bad source to work with or you filtered it too much. Looks a bit awful for a 55 megabyte mp4, actually.
