This is the best of the three movies that made up the American Dub. I haven't seen all the Digimon movies as of this writing, but this is currently second to X-Evolution.

This is an action movie, comparable to WarGames. There is a genuinely creepy villain and the setup seems illogical, but still makes sense in this setting. Everyone is in character, and both versions have great, albeit very different, soundtracks.

I had seen some of the show going into this, but this movie made me love the show even more. What happened in the other two segments...don't even remember. But this one ruled

The dub is not bad, but some things were cut out. I say, stick to the sub if you can. If you're watching the American movie...skip all the rest and just watch this.

I'm a huge fan of everything Hosoda Mamoru has made in his subsequent career as a filmmaker, and it's interesting to go back and see things he helped to create before truly setting out on his own. This is to say nothing of how this 2000 piece served as major, obvious inspiration for Hosoda's 'Summer wars' in 2009, and of how this and its predecessor (1999's 'Digimon adventure') were recycled for Fox Kids' "full-length feature" of several months later. Of course, the latter also struggled heavily with its unwieldy, nearly constant dialogue that accelerated already swift pacing, poorly communicated its new story, and even distracted from the animation. With that in mind, I was pleasantly surprised by how enjoyable 'Digimon adventure' was when considered on its own merits; how might this hold up in and of itself? Happily, I think it's just swell - it's no revelation, but it's suitably fun and well made all on its own!

Now, it's true that those broadly unfamiliar with the franchise won't get as much out of this little picture; I'm given to understand that it takes place during the first season of the TV show, and one can discern as much from bits and pieces of the writing that suggest prior events. (Notably, without that outside context, some odds and ends just seem disjointed and extraneous.) It also readily comes across, as Hosoda has accordingly remarked as well, that he had ambitions for the plot that just couldn't be realized with the constraints of the Digimon property and a diminutive runtime; in turn, the plot development does seem somewhat forced. In a more general sense, I don't think the connective tissue is always that strong between some ideas. Even for all that, however, Hosoda drummed up some neat ideas, and scribe Yoshida Reiko produced a screenplay that does its best with the space it is given. As we saw with 'Digimon adventure' the short is rounded out with welcome tidbits that were cut from 'Digimon: The movie,' including nice touches of humor. Even with faults the storytelling is distinctly cohesive here, and duly compelling (rather simple though it may be), where it was not upon being recycled. Again we see how any given film really, really should almost uniformly always be left untouched, and never re-edited (or dubbed over).

I actually really like the music, too, both Arisawa Takanori's score and the poppy songs that join it on the soundtrack. And it's safe to say the animation of Toei is pretty great - not necessarily the absolute top of the line, then or now, but flush with excellent detail in creature designs, backgrounds, and some other active elements. The foremost action sequences are sharp and fluid, with superb effects laid on top, and where 3D digital rendering augments the predominant 2D style, it mostly looks fantastic. In such moments that take place within the Internet, like with the narrative as a whole, we see how very much Hosoda drew on his thoughts and experiences here to make 'Summer wars,' but the doing nine years before is unquestionably less polished in every way. In some measure it wouldn't be unfair to think of 'Our war game' as a rough draft of its spiritual successor. Still, all such rumination and nitpicking is perhaps beside the point: while it's not flawless, or totally essential, this flick only wanted to have a good time and expand the Digimon franchise. It handily achieved those goals. Unless one has a special impetus to watch there's no need to go out of your way for it, but not least at just over forty minutes long, if you do have the opportunity to watch then it's lightly entertaining to pass the time on a lazy day.

Our War Game is a good short movie that's just enough to satisfy any Digimon fan. The story is basically that a digimon egg hatched is messing up various electronics. Taichi (or Tai for you dubbies) and Koushiro (Izzy), Yamato (Matt), and Takeru (T.K) must now stop the digimon. So now that we have the small symnopsis out of the way what else is there to say about this movie? Not much, but it's still a good movie that I would recomemd for Digimon fans.

This short film is crafted in a very tense and exciting way. The countdown combined with the WarGames inspired plot and Y2K paranoia really give it an intense atmosphere. We are drawn in to the plight of the characters and feel the stakes. All with cool Digimon battles, of course. The English version adds some more humour, adds more songs and cuts out some extraneous parts to increase the pacing, but the difference is not much so overall the feel is still the same.

An entertaining OVA that complements and adds new characters to the franchise. With interesting reflective themes and variable animation in many scenes.

"Digimon Adventure: Our War Game" is a pleasant experience for fans of the saga, adding a bit more to the story and leaving unforgettable moments. "Our War Game" is a pleasant experience for fans of the saga, complementing the story a bit more and leaving unforgettable moments. With just 40 minutes, it creates an atmosphere of intrigue about the events involving the new villain, the relationship of the chosen children, and the overall development of the plot. Being very energetic, yet simple, it is clear that it is not excellent, but for what it conveys, it fulfills its purpose.

It should be mentioned that this short film escapes conventionalities, but it's Digimon, what more can you expect? However, it opens an interesting window of reflection on friendship, strong bonds, and the connection between Digimon and their chosen ones. Mamoru Hosoda once again delivers an efficient product.

Speaking of continuity, the OVA provides a solid plot and entertains the viewer. Now then, among its negative points, its animation can be mentioned, which is variable and changes considerably. It is evident that all the effort was left for the final scenes, where we have visually stunning action moments. The sequences of movements, the change in color tones due to the digital focus, and the drawing are very remarkable.

However, the animation in the main scenes is very simple, leaving the design of the characters or the drawings of our protagonists with many details in their environments, where the edges are very irregular and lacking better execution. So, it's variable because if we talk about the environments in general, they fulfill their function.

The music of Digimon always complements its stories greatly, raising expectations and providing emotions to its audience. On the other hand, I must mention how epic it is to see Wargreymon and Omegamon on screen, what memorable characters they are.

Without a doubt, "Digimon Adventure: "Our War Game" deserves the opportunity. For many, it is considered one of the OVAs of the saga.
