Customer Ratings & Reviews

An excellent movie. The actions sequences are well done and John Woo's influence can be seen. The Visuals are stunning and there are many sequences that are photo realistic. The plot is compelling and the pacing is better than the first movie. I did have two small issues with the movie that fans might agree with. First is some of the conversations and one liners are a bit cheesy. The second and largest is that there is no continuation of the second movie into this movie. Neither of these things detracts from the movie. Anyone who has not seen the first movie can pick this up and not feel lost. Lastly I would recommend that parents of younger children (under 10?) watch this first before letting the kids watch. Most of the violence and done well there are a couple of scenes that might not be appropriate. Also the plot is complicated and younger children may not be able to follow.

First off, I'm not to into anime. This was recommended to me by a friend so I decided it's worth taking a look at since it only costs me $15 (2 for $30 sale at Best Buy). Because I have no prior knowledge it kinda took me a while to figure out what's going on with the story since it supposedly picked up where the last one left off. After going through the movie a bit, you kinda start piecing things together. The thing that really does it for me though is the CGI animation on this movie. It's simply amazing at 1080p picture quality and the action sequences are simply amazing. For the price I paid, it was well worth adding this title to my Blu-ray collection.

If you liked the Final Fantasy series you will love this. The animation is not as good as final fantasy but it is not bad.

I thought this was a really entertaining movie that any lover of animation should see. Probably one of the better cg movies out there.
