This is really Vol. 2, not Vol. 3.
If you like the others, you'll like this. It's similiar to the original film in feel, but computer animated, with massively reduced violence/gore levels and most of the political commentary missing. Otherwise, it's a fun, if predictable action movie. Because it's a number of short stories spliced into a single movie, the plot is a little jumpy, but it still works quite well.
The biggest problem with this disc, is that the distributors completely screwed up the title. This is really volume 2, not volume 3. Also volumne 4 should be volume 3 and volume 2 should be volume 4. So because I watched volume 2, The Tesca Campaign, before this I had a good idea what's going to happen and the spoilers in volume 2 for volume 4 are even worse. As I said earlier, the plot's a little predictable, but this makes things much worse. So if you're going to watch all these DVDs, watch them in the order 1,3,4,2,5 and 6. -
