Review of Taylor Swift: Shake It Off

You have enough talents in other areas of music, so stay away from hip-hop please. This is the music video for Taylor Swift's single from last year "Shake it Off". I have to say apart from the rapping parts mentioned earlier, this is a successful 4 minutes. Nice little video with some good dancing, but also some goofiness which lets it not appear pretentious and Swift's voice is spot-on again. The chorus is pretty catchy in this one too. All in all, I certainly enjoyed it, but this is not really a surprise as this was directed by Mark Romanek and he is among my favorite directors currently working. Of course, this is a completely different project than the outstanding movies "Never Let Me Go" and "One Hour Photo", but I believe he succeeded as well in terms of music video direction. Recommended.
