You headline says it all. Many laughable moments, from a fast thinking and very deep player. Levy is an IM, who plays blitz at a GM level, has no chance of keeping up with Hikaru's analysis of the positions.

Nakamura is a fast and deep player, but even I was about able to keep up with practically everything (as a spectator; it doesn't mean that I would have generated the line as fast as he did). (And don't forget that Nakamura [and Rozman] were able to look at the board for a few seconds before the clips, too.) The difficulty came when the amount of debris on the board became overwhelming or when the video would zoom in or jump-cut from one position to another just for effect.
