One Piece Film: Red

As a child, Uta—the Red Hair Pirates' ex-musician and Monkey D. Luffy's childhood friend—promised that she would build a new era of freedom by performing joyful music for the world.

Luffy and the Straw Hat Crew arrive at Uta's first ever live concert, where many fans have gathered to enjoy the diva's otherworldly singing. Due to a childhood trauma, Uta bears a deep-seated hatred for pirates; her happy reunion with Luffy is cut short when she learns that he has since become one. Luffy's refusal to change his ways results in Uta unleashing her powers on the Straw Hats. The crew soon learns that their minds have already been trapped in Uta's dream world since the beginning of the concert, while their unconscious bodies remain asleep in the real world.

With time quickly running out, the Straw Hats must find a way to escape the nightmare or be trapped in Uta's dream forever.

I think this is my favorite One Piece movie so far. It had a stronger narrative than some of the others and I really liked how they tied the past into the present (of the story in 2022 at least). I really liked how they created a reason to have so many fan favorites together. I also like how they explored how devil's fruits can be very dark when influenced by negative forces. That said, it still had a lot of the other movies' weaknesses. The narrative was a little convoluted in places but cleaner than other movies. There came a point in which it ... felt like maybe things were dragging a little here and there but it would immediately pick back up again. Overall, it was a fun time and seems rewatchable.

If you liked previous One Piece movies then you'll likely enjoy this one. If you're the type of person who doesn't like things that might remind you a little of Alice in Wonderland, then you might not enjoy it so much. I'm definitely looking forward to the inevitable next movie.

Mixed Feelings

As a general rule of thumb Shounen anime movies are pretty s**t. They have pretty crappy antagonists, no real plot and just have every mildly important or popular character show up for 10 seconds of screen time for some contrived reason. Commonly the main character will get a single-use powerup (Naruto will get a new one-use Rasengan, Goku will get False Super Saiyan, Deku will get some glove that lets him use 100% punches then it never appears again.) One Piece MOSTLY follows the trend pretty well, although I think it's movies tend to be much better than the average shounen slop.

Most of the villains ... are better written and more compelling, single-use power-ups aren't given out like candy either. However, Film RED is easily one of the worst One Piece movies, up there with STAMPEDE. Uta completely sucks as a character. Extremely powerful, related to important main characters, retconned in despite no previous mentions... Is this a character written by the manga's author, or an 11 year old girl's self-insert OC? Nonsense plot. Gear 5 hype moment for no plot reason. Just pure slop.

Not Recommended

The film follows on from episodes n°1029-1030, introducing the film's central character (Uta).
I strongly recommend that you don't make the same mistake as I did and avoid the French version altogether!
In fact, the film was completely spoiled for me by the more than catastrophic and disastrous performance of the person who sings the character of Uta.
The songs are completely dissonant, even wrong, with a voice that doesn't match the character at all. In short, an appalling under-performance, unworthy of such a franchise and utterly unpleasant to listen to!
I don't know who made the casting decision or why, but it's clearly a bad one.
Fortunately, the person ... who lends his voice to the character during the discussion phases is not the same - a professional, no doubt about it. The performance is of a much higher quality, and this can be heard to the delight of my ears. This proves that voice dubbing is a profession in its own right, and in this case a distinct art form. That's probably why the singer doesn't do the character's dialogue!
Apart from that, the story isn't uninteresting, and it's always nice to see people from One Piece in alternative outfits.

Le film fait suite aux épisodes n°1029-1030, introduisant le personnage central de se film (Uta).
Je recommande vivement de ne surtout pas faire la même erreur que moi et d'éviter absolument la version en VF !!
En effet, le film m'a été complètement gâché par l'interprétation plus que catastrophique et désastreuse de la personne qui chante le personnage de Uta.
Les chansons sont complètement dissonantes voire même fausses, avec une voix qui ne correspond absolument pas au personnage. Bref, une sous prestation épouvantable indigne pour une telle franchise et désagréable au plus au point à entendre !!
J'ignore qui est à l'origine de ce casting et pour quelle raison ce choix a été fait, mais il est clairement mauvais.
Par chance, la personne prêtant sa voix au personnage pendant les phases de discussion n'est pas la même une professionnelle a n'en point douter, la performance est d'une qualité bien supérieure et cela s'entend au plus grand bonheur de mes oreilles. Cela prouve bien que le doublage vocal est un métier à part entière et dans le cas présent un art distinct . C'est d'ailleurs sûrement pour cela que la personne qui chante ne fait pas les dialogues du personnage !!
Hormis cela l'histoire n'est pas inintéressante et c'est toujours sympathique de voir les personnes de one piece dans des tenues alternatives
