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!
It took me forever to figure it out, but after enough searching, I found out why.
I found that the movie was a lot like the show, so close that it seemed like they had just thrown three episodes together. The only reason I put up with this, these three 'episodes' were effectively on their own and were referred to briefely in the series (well, 2 of them were).
It ends up that I was half right. after searching, I found out that it isn't three episodes strung together, but currently there are some 6 digimon 'movies' released in Japan, and three of them are in this single movie that we saw in the western world. It seems that the Japanese form of a movie is 30 minutes long (how this works is beyond me).
Outside that, it was enjoyable. I had fun watching it, taping it and watching it again, and catching all the jokes they had. It's what makes the series enjoyable, and it sure saved 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!
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.

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.

- Quotes
[Giant Agumon leaps over a passing truck]
Man 1: Whoa! Did you see that?
Man 2: No, I was sleeping.
Man 1: But you're driving!
- Crazy creditsIn the Japanese version of segment 2: An hour glass mouse pointer is seen. Then a Windows computer screen with a window open on the right side appears. As the credits go by on the left side of the screen, images flash by in the open window. They are: TK and the old couple, Matt getting a hair cut, Joe after his test, Mimi and her family surrounded by bags, Kari and the group of friends at the birthday party, TK and Matt's grandma, random tinted yellow flashes of everyone who sent e-mails (including Yolei and Ryo), Tai's mother sitting at the kitchen table looking at the cake she baked, Izzy leaving Tai's appartment, All the digimon happy with Gennai, and Sora e-mails Tai back. The e-mail reads "Taichi, I'm so sorry. Let's forget it happened. Thanks... Sora." Sora smiles and The mouse pointer closes the open window then shuts down the computer. The screen goes black.
- Alternate versionsThe ABC Family and Toon Disney broadcast premieres removed the 4-minute intro with Angela Anaconda before the 20th Century Fox logo sequence, and replaced the Fox Kids logo between the 20th logo sequence and the opening credit sequence with the Saban International logo. 20th Century Fox is owned by the News Corporation in which it and Haim Saban, in 2001, sold what Fox Family became ABC Family, including what Saban Entertainment became BVS Entertainment and what the Fox Kids International channels became Jetix in 2005, to the Walt Disney Company.
