(This review will go back and forth between the sub and the dub, and will seem to be slightly biased as I prefer one over the other, and yet for a better reason than “It's nostalgic”.)

It serves as a prologue to the television series, although American audiences didn't get to see it until the movie was released in the fall of 2000.
#DIGIMON MOVIE 2 ENGLISH DUB SERIES#
The DigimonĪdventure movie is one of the more well-remembered ones next to “Our War Game”, and it helps that it's the first to be seen-and the first before the main series started. They also may remember the movie, which Saban Entertainment tried and failed to piece together three separate movies into one and make them related to one-another (even though they had a reason for why, but it's not justifiable). However, when one thinks of Digimon, when they're not comparing it to Pokémon and claiming it's a rip-off, they think of the first two seasons, particularly the first with the original eight children and their Digimon. If you have 20 minutes to spare check it out - either to remember the Digimon days or to embark on Digimon days to come.Īs they say in the theme song: “Digimon, Digital monsters, Digimon are the champions!”ĭigimon is a great series that has sadly gone under a lot of people's radars, and its track record in recent years doesn't help (though it's been picking up). Digimon Adventure has genuinely been an enjoyable movie childhood favourite or not - as it delivers reasonable voice acting without sounding childishly lame sophisticated execution for a show primarily aimed for children and decent animation for an anime from 1999. For viewers who are yet to discover the Digiworld this is a good introduction to the real show - Digimon: Digital monsters, which is set four years after the events of this film. This is where the series actually starts as they encounter their first Digimon and all the things that come with it.įor viewers who are familiar with the Digimon franchise this is a fulfilling re-watch, which questionably enough comes to be heart-warming. This particular story only follows two of our ‘Digidestined’ Hikari and her elder brother Tai, just normal children in an otherwise normal city. Having said that it does deliver the premise quite well at the beginning of this film with the simple sentences: “Did you know that there are two worlds? Our world and the digital world.” From that you immediately thrown into the Digimon world and all its glory. Being such a short film you can’t expect to know who all the characters are or what the main bulk of the story is unless you are familiar with the show. This is supposed to be a prequel to the anime series. For a twenty-minute movie not much else can be said about sound except if you watch the English dub, they surprise the viewer by using some well known So how is this childhood classic seen from a supposedly more critical individual?Īs you first start the movie you are immediately hit with the nostalgic Digimon theme song: “Digimon, Digital monsters, Digimon are the champions!”, a dangerously catchy tune that will have you humming it for ages afterwards. But as we all know how we perceive shows now and how we perceive shows as a child are completely different. If you have seen it, watch it AGAIN and AGAIN, but I'm sure if you love it as much as I do, then you already are =)Īh Digimon, a childhood favourite for many. You have to see this movie if you haven't already. The characters are very well developed, and the first part of the film reminds me of a Godzilla movie. I will show this movie to my own kids one day, they will probably say THIS IS LAME but whatever. Though a little outdated, this movie has already imbedded itself as a classic. Even the freakin Digimon theme song is amazing. I still have my soundtrack for this movie, and it still remains my favorite motion picture soundtrack. In Japan, this movie is actually 3 seperate short movies but I guess when they released it in NorthĪmerican theaters they edited all 3 together to great a story arc. The artwork is gorgeous, the score for this movie is fantastic, the dubbing is easily one of the best for any anime and the story is perfect. Everything about this movie just oozes with epicness and win. I'm 17, and still hook up my VCR just so I can watch my retro VHS copy of this film. In my eyes, this is the perfect animated film. Okay, I know some people are going to be like "WTF STRAIGHT 10's!? THATS SO UNREALISTIC YOU ANIME NOOB!" Whatever.
