DIGIMON!! :D! YAAY!!! Once a Digimon fan, always a Digimon fan! In my case anyways.. When I was little, I was completely obsessed with this series and even today, Im still pretty fond of these characters and all the little adventures they went on. This movie really wasn't -that- great, but to a die-hard Digimon fan like me, I had to give it a 8 because come on.. its Digimon!!! :P Otherwise this movie probably deserves like a 4-5 if you've never seen or heard about this series before.

This movie is actually a compilation of 3 separate movies, but they just spliced them together and tried to make it flow as one. You cant really tell though so it didn't really bother me. They did cut out some scenes though to shorten this movie, but those parts didn't influence the storyline that much.

This movie was pretty funny, and it had a lot of action in it. Some of the jokes were corny and made me just shake my head. Speaking of corny, wow, the songs/sound track were lame. It was actually a little embarrassing to be honest, to have to sit through and listen to this terrible Digi-rap as a person in their early 20s. Face palm! Overall, I still found the movie enjoyable. It has a lot of action in it and kept me on the edge of my seat. If you want to see the unedited original films, you can search for them on google. The Japanese version is much more serious than the American version, and best of all.. no more childish and annoying Digi-rap/Digimon songs. Instead of the "Digimon, Digital Monsters, Digimon are the Champion" songs that they mindlessly repeat throughout the American version, the Japanese version instead has Ravel's Bolero as the main theme... well in the first part with Baby Tai anyways.

If you're a die-hard Digimon fan, you will absolutely love this movie! If you are curious about the scenes that were edited out, try searching for the Japanese version on google. If you aren't a Digimon fan then I cant really recommend this movie. It has a lot of action in it, but its also laced with corniness. Depending on your tolerance, you might be able to sit through this childish version of the original. Happy viewing!
