I like it a lot.
Britney actually is into it and you can tell she's enjoying herself. She always delivers for videos but this one went the extra mile

You have to have fast cuts to keep up the illusion of energy (if the performance isn't up to par). The longer you look at something the easier it is to spot the flaws and underwhelm your overall perception.
Understandable. But they both looked rather good there. There was literally no need to do such fast cuts. Brought the video down from a potential 6-7/10 to about 3/10 for me
we saw longer cuts in the BTS and the energy seemed fine
It's not necessarily just the energy. It's the performance too. It takes a lot of smoke and mirrors to make Britneys dancing look good lately. Believe me, the choppy editing only helps the matter. Seeing her jog on the spot for extended periods of time is just gonna be more awkward than it already is
Britney looked great and the dancing was decent but I don't get why they have her in 2 different hairstyles for the car scene, like right after Iggy changes the phone her hair changes, WHY?
That part was amess lmao
My guess is that Britney was over the weave and wanted to dance better
The song itself is a parody, what the **** did you guys expect from the video? some people... smh.
Love the video, so ****ing funny and cute and I enjoyed it a lot, watched it like 15 times in a row.

Yeh. I'd say the editing in the opening was way too confusing. I did not gather that Britney gave Alien Iggy a makeover until my 2nd viewing. I don't understand the shots they used. The didn't show iggy get undressed, they didn't actually show Britney applying her make up, they just showed the dress and the lipstick and showed Britney clapping
But to be fair, the song is only 2:44 long. Shorter than most songs, and that's not a lot of time to tell a story tbh.
Two things I got from the video:
1) Brit stealing TGIF earrings from Katy
2) Britney being stuck in 2002-2004, I mean the choreo, her Do Somenthin'nes 10 years later, all this don't sit well with me in 2015 tbh
