When I saw the source list, I was kind of excited. It had a lot of things I liked in it.
However, I'm sorry to say that I didn't enjoy this very much. I will say that the video quality wasn't that bad, although it's about what you'd expect from a .wmv in most cases. I saw some beat sync near the beginning, but then I feel like the whole video just degenerated into a monotony of Advent Children action scenes with no sync or purpose. I mean, the games you had in here appeared so infrequently that you may as well have not used them. The entire video was practically AC anyway.
I kind of understand the theme you might have been going for, if the video title is any indication. I do think you picked good characters for it, but it just wasn't executed very well. On a last note, the lyrics of this song are so specific that it's tough to make them work for anything, and I don't think they fit here.
(On a side note, though, I do like this version of the song. They kept it very true to the original and very enjoyable.)
Overall, I think your skills need work. It's not terrible, but it's tough for me to enjoy. I hope you'll take some of this to heart and not offensively, because it isn't meant that way.

I actually can completely agree with you. I wanted something a little more out of the video, but instead I left it as is. It was very much a story about the characters but the way I aligned the scenes with the song could've used a little adjusting. Thanks for the opinion. The more I get, the more I can improve
