Digimon: The Movie

I watched this movie with my little brother and he is a Digimon fan. Now, I'm not a huge Digimon fan and I came with my brother because he couldn't go alone and I knew my parents did not want to see it. I came out of the movie really liking it, I enjoyed watching it. It's a fantastic movie for all Digimon fans, but kids parents may not like it. It does have some violence, but it's not bloody or full of guts. The violence is tasteful and the movie has it's funny moments! The animation is really the only thing about the movie that wasn't really great, but everything else about the movie is great!

Except for the previews for several horrible kid movies and an excruciating ten minute Angela Anaconda short, Digimon: The Movie was a great film!

I think that my friend and myself were the only people in the theatre who understood it, as the little kids and their parents probably had no idea what was going on or why. It's a deeper movie than I expected, and hard to understand if you haven't been following the TV show to become acquainted with the characters and their world.

The animation is great and fun to look at, there's a lot of comedy, interesting characters and rad monsters. I was surprised to find there was even a little poop.

If you're a fan of the show, you'll probably love every second of the movie, although a lot of it is apt to fly right over little kids' heads.

For those of you who think Digimon rips off Poke'mon guess what?DIGIMON CAME FIRST!Although Poke'mon appeard here in america first,it was Digimon that came first in Japan where it all started,so Poke'mon is the rip off!Anyway,about the film.This is a good movie,with some great action,poor comedy,and some of the best drama found,and unlike most movies of a show,this one is linked with the Tv series,I recommend this,and the show to anybody,you'll like it,if you don't,better call for some help,if you know what I mean whacko!

I like the second part of the movie best because of the way Izzy looked liked when he was about to burst. Furthermore, this movie serves as to what happens after the first series ends. To me, I loved how it was told and I loved how Tai got frustrated over a silly letter to his friend Sora. It was funny to see the movie, especially when Izzy ate all that bad food of Tai's mother. But its purpose of it will never be forgotten for this movie really rocks.

I really can't bring myself to insult this movie as it got me into anime. Actually, to rephrase that, it got me interested in the idea of anime: Akira got me into PROPER anime.

As for the film, it is actually pretty good. Digimon is one of those anime series that, while aimed at younger audiences, is actually very enjoyable. There are funny moments, and the fight scenes are cool without being too violent.

The film is split into three loosely linked sections, the first really just setting the story up, but containing a cool fight scene at the end. The second part is the longest and most enjoyable: it features Tai and Izzy trying to stop a Digimon with a virus that has taken over the internet. This section contains the best jokes and interaction between the characters, and has a good plot and animation. The third part I didn't like so much, but for the record is takes place later, and deals with the aftermath of what happened, this time set in the USA.

Obviously, Digimon: The Movie is just a kids picture, and the animation and plot are pretty basically, but it will be enjoyed by fans of the series, children who are into anime, scifi, etc. and even my more mature (i.e. older!) anime fans like myself who just want a fun little film to pass the time with.
