TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Jenni Devyn Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
DCfan It was actually a pretty good, interesting and watchable movie. The animation is good, the funimation dub from the voice actors were good and I got to hear new voice actors who I had never heard of before.At first I actually though by the trailer that it was going to be a cheesy Disney anime moving because of Kenji's first avatar's had Mickey Mouse like ears but I was wrong.Anyways I am not going to spoil any plots or events but it was a good movie.
millecastle I saw this in the recent animated films and I was pleasantly surprised to find something set in cyberspace , said this I can say that the proposed environment although in the past proposed by cartoons like Digimon and others this time is presented to us in the form of social network ( Like Second Life ) who are now tied almost all human activities all from the hospital sector to that of firefighter and management also of the satellites , and in this scenario is emerging that will see the adventure starring a guy between various adventures if you will have to do with a dangerous computer virus that threatens to destroy the city and the virtual community ( engulfing avatar of Avatar ) . Some described the plot can only say that it is undoubtedly a good film that takes sometimes adventures in cyberspace proposed in the past by the aforementioned series and making it a more contemporary and advice if you are looking for a good animated film .
Irishchatter I swear in my life, I am so glad to have seen this film. It really gave a great idea for an anime to be based off a social media website. Although I wouldn't call this film 'Summer Wars', I think it would've been better if it was called 'Computer Wars' as it would make more sense. The action, the graphics and the characters were far out brilliant! Kenji was hilarious like he is such a wuss to love. Himself and Natuski are such a cute couple even if they lied that they were getting married soon. It was sad that the grandmother died but she was such a legend in trying to wave the world too!I honestly think this movie should've been in cinemas or even got an Oscar for the best action animated film because it is just enjoyable to watch!
James Kukis Another amazing anime movie from Mamoru Hosoda, "Summer Wars". Mamoru Hosoda also had written and directed "Wolf Children" and "The Girl Who Leapt Through Time". I must say that this movie was very different from "Wolf Children" and "The Girl Who Leapt Through Time". It's about a student who's Oz account gets hacked into by an Ai called "Love Machine". He starts to hack many other accounts which in turn causes serous problems for users and companies connected to Oz. Oz is a digital world that millions of users are connected to. Even people who work at train stations controlling the trains are connected to it. So, "Love Machine" can disrupt and control trains. There are many other services it can control, but I just wanted to give you a gist of what it can do. I never found one problem with this film. The pacing was perfect and the story was amazing. The English voice dubbing talents did an exceptional job that you couldn't even tell the original movie was in Japanese. It is a very nerdy movie, so if you are not into that sort of thing avoid it. I highly recommend this to any gamer or tech nerd who is a fan of anime or even if they are not a fan.
