I too liked the opening theatrical scene and the set very much, like a live movie so I was glad to watch it on my neighbor's big screen. I didn't get the hymn singing memorial of audiences' loved ones at all. I didn't see what it had to do with the Olympics or its opening though a memorial of the Munich Olympics would have been more appropriate. The rock music segment through the teenage romance digital age was a big bore, just a club production though bigger. I like the biking birds.

Essentially the highlights for me were the beginning and the end, the period movie and the spectacular design of the cauldron.

Oh, it was a real negligence to not have the Queen wear the same dress as in the helicopter.
