    About what I expected... I mean, I don't think they've released a good video since Meteora. Just the band playing with silly After Effects tricks.

    Well, to be honest, didn't expect the video to be like that, i gave it 7/10, even if it worth 6/10 or 5.5/10.
    Camera is moving randomly on non important objects, no focusing on LP members, or something that maybe watchable !
    Maybe coz of the too much tracking they need to do, pushed the designer to work on less scenes, don't know ! but they could do much better.
    im a bit disappointed! Hope next video, and next track be much better.

    I liked it. Too much money is spent on music videos these days anyway. Nice and simple, with a bit of eye candy.

    Don't get me wrong on this; the video's great, but it lacks something new. With a new album dropping and with their marketing appealing mainly to much of the mainstream masses (Playoffs, etc.), this video is great at what it's designed for: being a first single. The band said themselves that they wanted that feel of energy you'd get from a live show in this video, and they got it. It's powerful and energetic. It's just... nothing new.

    I like the video, but I also know that when it comes to being new and innovative, Linkin Park are the professionals in the field. They can step their game up.

    I thought Leave Out All The Rest was pretty good. But yeah, LP Videos aren't the same anymore. Are any music videos that great anymore? Nobody watches music videos on TV anymore. It's all on YouTube. It's senseless to spend a lot of money on them now.

    It doesn't tell a story, the cgi is decent enough, all in all its a pretty standard performance video. Odds are, it will be forgotten by most fairly quickly.

    LP continues the trend of dropping one weak video after another. This is probably one of their weakest to date.

    It feels like a demo reel for a special effect company or something. Way too many blurs and effects... the band members aren't even properly visible for most of the video. I don't know what has gotten into Joe, but based on the last few LP videos it seems like he thinks more effects = better video. This video doesn't even carry the energy of the song and this has been a problem with the last few videos he's directed.

    What happened to making a video that is simple and to the point? We don't need special effects shoved down our throat. Joe used to be so good with his video concepts (not really important to me tbh), setting and DIRECTION! I don't know what happened.

    I think Joe needs to take a back seat for a while and hire other directors (Mark Romanek for example) from now on. It's long overdue. :/

    Not a bad video. None of their videos have been all that great since the Meteora days but music videos aren't all that important anyway.
