Surprisingly incoherent and boring
Excellent, Without a doubt!!
Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
I remember reading the book series in elementary school. When I found out about this movie I went to find it and did. I was surprised to see that it's anime style and I was like highly skeptical, but went to watch it anyway. It's not a perfect movie as it does have some "bugs" in transitions from one scene to another for most of the movie and some minor issues. In general, it does have a coherent story, likable characters, some fun and action. (Some stuff I was shocked which was towards the end of the movie). I feel like some good things came together in this film, the animation is pretty good, good cinematic shots, colorful, and would keep you awake and engaged for most of the film.
