Description

Yep, it's time for the movie. Now, i did go into the movie in Top 5 Animated Films of 2002 list so go there for some more details. But in short,i still like it, just a tiny bit less. The main problem is that i can get be a bit too simple. The story is good butthe simply nature leads to some padding, especially in the middle.

We get it, they are trashing the cirty and now everyone's mad,no need to linger o nit so much. Maybe there could have been some small subplots or something like that. Is it is, the writing can be a bit too simple sometmes. But as it is. i like it. Aside from the things that werer already good in the show, the biest thing about the movie would be the drama.

They really do a good job of showing you the weight of all this, especially after the girls are shunned (although i think it makes more sense to lock up the girls who wrecked your town...). Thatscene on the asteriod is really good. The animation is surprsingly great. Instead of just putting in slight shading like some TV adapatations do (cough Hey Arnold the movie), they completly re-do the style to be theatircal and it looks really nice, and they do great things with lighting.

I'm not too sure if a prequel was the best idea, but it does play out well and plus it means you really don't need to see the show to get te movie. Back in 2002 this got flack for the violence but only beause this was after 9/11 so i get why it got it at the time but in context it works. They actually show the reporcussions of it, big time. So it's not brushed off or seen as good like in some movies.

So i  don't totally agree there. Overall, maybe a bit too simple but still enjoyable with the drama and visual style. It's too bad this bombed, i wanted more theatircal CN Movie. They onlty rrecently wanted to do another one for At, but we haven't heard anything on it so i doubt it's happening.

Still, at leasst we have this movie. See you tommrow for the S4 Scorecard!
