Detektiv Conan - Die Partitur des Grauens

As I've already stated, every DC film has a distinct concept. For instance, the last film had a pirate-related theme, but this one has a classical music theme that is very different from the one in the previous film and quite original. In my opinion, the film moves considerably more quickly than previous DC films. Every significant incident-or crime, if you will-occurs far more quickly than in the previous films, which may be a drawback in and of itself, but it is inconsequential because we get a fleeting sight of attractive girls belting out Beethoven opera house music.

Given that the theme of this DC film is classical music, it makes sense to hear some very calming and serene music. However, this film did more for us than just provide that; it also featured resonant passages of two very different classics: "Amazing Grace" and "Ave Maria," both of which were expertly and naturally sung by a young, gorgeous, young woman with impeccable pitch. Additionally, despite the fact that something terrible and horrible is happening outside of that stunning performance, the music in this film manages to seem even more delightful. In a nutshell, there's classical music with a BOOM in this film!

Here I am writing the first review again! These anime films have probably never been dubbed into English. Anyway, this movie features a serial killer who kills people by rigging explosives up to musical instruments. It actually reminds me of this Looney Tunes cartoon called "Ballot Box Bunny", only this was obviously done more serious. While it was a fairly long time since the previous movie that I saw, I was still quite impressed by the animation. Even in nine or so years, the artwork looks much brighter and clearer!

They tell Conan's backstory and I actually really appreciate it here, because it actually ends up being pretty relevant at the end when he talks about what he used to do as Shinichi before he took on this Conan persona. It's interesting to see him actually get attacked and knocked unconscious by the villain. I just came back from a Church that had these giant musical instruments, so maybe I'm just in the mood for that. I believe this is the longest of all the Detective Conan movies. While not the most epic thing out there, still good. Hopefully these will be dubbed someday. ***
