is an easy watching


Explanation:
Мне нравится вариант с использованием ease, easy = удобный; лёгкий, не вызывающий неприятных ощущений, как easy listening = лёгкая музыка, easy chair = удобное кресло.
Например,
is watched easily, is taken easy

"не напрягает" в этом контексте, на мой взгляд, это "не вызывает неприятных ощущений", не заставляет "напрячься", т.е. смотрится легко и непринужденно.
Ср. примеры для "напрягать" и "напряжный" из словаря молодежного сленга. Здесь значение ближе к "обременять, обременительный", в отличие от "раздражать":

Он хотел бы иметь со мной отношения, но мой возраст его напрягает. Ресурс построен таким образом, чтобы не напрягать его посетителей лишней информацией. Не хочу напрягать вас пустой болтовней. Дизайн не понравился — напряжный для глаз какой-то.

Еще вариант: laid-back (мне даже больше этот нравится). Обычно так говорят об обстановке, настроении в компании людей, фильмах, отпуске и т.п.

  -> I do. I believe what they meant is that the clip does not напрягает visually, i.e. when you watch it. //Oh, and it is a figurative expression, not literal, i.e. has nothing to do with actual effect on the eyes, if that's what you meant.
