Lupin III: The First

Lower your expectations! This is a kid's movie. But it is a very good one, and quite worth the watch if you come in expecting to have a nice time and not over think what's going on on screen.

I feel like the movie itself eases you into such a mentality by itself and very early on.. so I was fine with every cliche and "expected" twist. I'd go as far as to say this isn't as "grand" as Tintin's movie Adventure. It's much smaller in scale and plot.. but as a fan of the character, this movie delivered in a fun adventure.

What I love most about this movie is (the look, of course) the small movements, details and interactions. The new female character is lovely and everything is expressed properly. You can tell that the people that animated this put a lot of time and effort into it. The same with whoever was in charge of dialogue (Japanese).

All in all, I recommend it for the piece of art that it is, and the cool animations.
