Best of the three Saga films that we got, but it still definitely misses. The whole trilogy, but especially this film, falls so short because the studios didn't commit as hard as they should've. Some better voice acting, some better music, not relying on 3D rendering to carry you the entire time, and this could've been great.
For every beautifully, hand-crafted scene that blows you away, there's another ten (barely) okay CGI scenes. I'm usually okay with CGI in anime, and I know most people are usually pretty against it, but if it isn't even done right what's the point? It makes almost every fight scene

**This review contains movie and manga spoilers**
This is pretty much a review of the movie trilogy. I haven't finished the Berserk manga yet, and let it be known that I absolutely love it. At the moment of writing this review, I'm at chapter 228. I can't help but compare these movies to the manga, which I hold at the highest standard. Now onwards to the movies review. Story: The Golden Age arc was great in the manga, and I feel like these three movies do it a certain justice, even if they do cut out what I consider to be very important parts of the story (I'll get ...

Reviews if you don't have time.
*SPOILER-FREE* “Berserk” despite not needing introduction is a manga adaptation with Studio 4oC at the front of animation and what an expectation did they were expected to meet by animating one of if not the best manga ever drawn. And comparing to the 3D animation disaster that is “Berserk (2016)” it did a decent job. As far as animation goes, despite not being absolutely appalling, I can comfortably say that it was far from the quality that a manga like “Berserk” deserved. Some actions were clunky and not very detailed, the art-style was a ... Feb 20, 2022
A tasteless and vile adaptation that should not exist.
***Spoilers Warning*** Watching this after having read the manga and watched the 97 anime, I find this adaptation to be worse than appalling and a nasty insult to the story and the artist. Shockingly pretentious CGI and horrid character rigging. The animation of the characters seem so unnatural, stiff, and puppet-like. The lighting of the film also does not capture the dramatic narrative of the story, spoiling its cinematic potential. The abrupt and thoughtless editing also undermines the narrative and characters. I do not understand how they could possibly change the art of the M.C. Escher inspired vision ... Previous - |
