All that preparation for naught. That abrupt ending was such a mess. Selena also looked really old in the close up at the end.
Kendrick adds nothing with his verse. What a terrible idea. His insertions in the middle of the song was good though.

yall be complaining why the storyline is stale when its just exactly 4:05 minutes long. god, if the characters were to be detailed then this would have been longer than that long ass MTN vid. aint nobody got time for that

[MonsterPaw]

I love the Remix with Kendrick. Way better than the normal version.

The MV has a great production but it's so sad that there is no story in the video at all. The entire 4 minutes were about presenting the characters.

aint nobody got time for that

Then what's the point of making a music video with the entire hollywood population? She should've made a movie, something like MTN. I don't see the point of this video at all. No shade just saying.

Mess at this just being a video full of cameos.

Where are the HAIM girls and Lorde though?

"The Trinity" character would have been perfect for HAIM

GORGEOUS !
The visuals are really, really expensive looking.

A bit more of a story line would've been amazing but we can't really criticize this tbh.
None of our faves have gone out of their way to make an expensive video like this in years (w/ the exception of G.U.Y. possibly).

You have to applaud Taylor for not making a cheap video and actually putting in the work to create something new and exciting for her brand.

I don't mind that the cameos were short. I just wish more "oomph" was put into most of them. Hayley and Zendaya were the only ones who showed some personality imo

Also, what were the concepts for Mariska and Ellen Pompeo? Everyone else got a distinctive weapon or identity but they were just walking by

[Bradley]

well i was expecting a short film or something, after all the people who were in it lol

totally agree

wtf happened to the verses, the verses made the song for me

[Remmy]

All the complaining What a joke... now I'm seriously convinced that ATRL really can't enjoy anything.

This is a phenomenal music video. Who the **** cares if it's 4 minutes long? It still had so many positive things about it that anything "bad" is completely irrelevant. The opening sequence was great, the new remix was a bop, the effects were well done, the editing/visuals/movements/sets/costume design and MORE were all top notch. Get out of here with your list of things you didn't like.

[theppy]

the video is good, but it just didn't really took advantage of the fact she had almost 20 stars to make something EPIC. I mean you can easily tell they're just there for the stream and the hype, some of them barely appear I say this because it will be a long time before another artist decides to gather a bunch of stars for a music video so it makes me so sad that's why i'm dissapointed, with more time and a better story she could've delivered the video of the decade
The name introductions are pointless, since we do not get any kind of character development, and the fight scenes are just so bad. they could at least get some fight choreographers to deliver decent fight scenes
so frustrated Right now
That said, it's still a good music vid. it will launch the song straight to no1 and that's the important i guess.

[Jeiboy]

Why is the video so low in views??!

[Heroine]

With all those celebs she should've had an actual plot, with each of the characters having a background/some kind of relevance...

[Moment4Life]

Ellen Pompeo redefining the word FIERCE. Slay Merideth.

I prefer the original, not a fan of Kendrick or his contribution. She's Taylor Swift, if she wants her music video to just be cameos of her famous friends, she can. Nobody should be pressed.

I. ****ING. KNOW. BEST MOMENT OF THE MV.

[cOe]

The verses were the best part of the song

[M A R C]

The scenes went too fast for me.
Terrible.

[K$Ellie]

Ellie looks weird here tbh
Not a fan of the remix but the video is still great.

[revel8]

This will go past 1 Billion views. Bookmark me!

Also hilarious to read the whining from the usual pressed souls on here when this vid is breaking records for the number of likes.

[bennyboy5462]

Nice visuals but overall an overhyped mess
