Great film bad ending
By Samuel Hammett from Bath, England , 15 Jun 2006[Highly rated reviewer]
This dvd is great. Great fighting and cool and strange story line. The ending was very abrupt. In all fairness there is another section to the story coming soon i belive. It was just dissapointing like when you know you left one beer in the fridge on a hot day knowing its going to be there when you get home then you open the fridge and your brother has drank it! Damn- Was this review helpful to you?

(16)Simply Stunning
By VIDEOMONSTER (252 reviews) from Glasgow , 13 Apr 2010This film is a visual feat, the anime is brilliant the fight scenes are fast and furious. Unfortunately the plot doesn't make much sense, which is why I am giving it the rating I have. A reasonable movie, as there are worse ways to spend 80 odd minutes. One for die hard anime fans. The rest of us will think 'What's all the fuss about?'- Was this review helpful to you?

Great art confused story
By a customer from Pinner , 14 Jun 2009This should win massive rewards for its artwork and whoever came up with the plotline or translated the plotlinefor putting that great art on the screen should be told to try again. See it for the artwork and enjoy.- Was this review helpful to you?

let down...
By GraffitiMonkey (19 reviews) from Radlett , 24 Sep 2008Great animation and design - looks wonderful, but story jumps all over the place, often hard to figure out what's going on, and then just ends very suddendly.- Was this review helpful to you?

ADD in overdrive
By Daymo (44 reviews) from on the toilet , 27 Jul 2008This felt like a breath of fresh air. As soon as Karas starts you're thrown straight into the deep end. Whilst your eyes twitch frantically at all the action your brain is busy processing what's going on, who's who etc. This is pretty much how the rest of 'prophecy' continues. There are respites however where the main characters are introduced and developed which works well, providing you with only what's required.
Dark stunning animation which when the action kicks in is very fast paced.
Some may be put off/disappointed by the dark and occasionally out of focus/blurred animation and the lack of explanation (even though certain aspects are slowly revealed during the 90 minutes). I feel this dark design works really well (considering the story) rather than everything being bright and crisp.
Behind all the quality artwork there are characters and stories which provide a solid foundation even if everything isn't fully explained/revealed. Like many great stories you don't need to explain everything, if the plot works and the characters have depth you accept it. It's always good to have a little mystery.
Can't wait to see the outcome that is 'Revelation'.- Was this review helpful to you?
