Digimon - Il film

I'll start with the bad news. Anyone who has never seen the series could get very confused.

Glad thats over. Digimon is a great movie, the sound track is awesome, the comedy is classic and the story line rocks.

The animation harks back to the Japanese style of 10/20 years ago, and is less simple and Americanised than the series. The script is full of one liners and hilarious slapstick. The humour will have kids and adults laughing out loud so parents can have a good time too.

The action is very fast paced and this where non-fans could fall down. It could get a little confusing even avid watchers of the show could get lost.

This was nothing like Pokemon, and cannot be called a rip off as there is no similarity apart from "mon" being in the title. But I greatly advise any fan off the growing "mon" world to see this one.

I've been a fan of Digimon Adventure and Zero Two for about four years now, and when I heard they were coming out with a movie in America for it I got excited.

So when I finally saw it, it was somewhat of a letdown. Sure, the movie has its funny parts, but it was too changed from the original Japanese versions that it just can't really compare. For one, the three "parts" don't really have anything to do with each other. They're three separate movies in Japan (and there was a fourth one later that never made it's way to the US), and they should have stayed that way. Plus, chunks were left out of the movie to cut down on time, parts that were rather important to understanding the plot as a whole. Some of the jokes were funny, but some were quite stupid, and of course a lot of them portrayed Daisuke (Davis) as being more stupid than he was shown in the Japanese version.

However, I understand that many people cannot understand raw Japanese, and as of yet there is no official subtitled version legally released, so if you enjoy Digimon and are looking for a good laugh, I would still recommend this movie. Though I admit I enjoyed the four Japanese movies better than this one, it's still a movie I found good enough to go out and buy and watch from time to time. It's cute, it's fun, and how can you not enjoy a movie about a bunch of kids and their pet digital monsters trying to save not just one, but the best of two worlds?

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!

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!

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.
