I admit to knowing little about the "Beyblade" franchise apart from that it's not really that popular...which is probably why I know little about it. From what I see, the series is about people who fight using tops. I thought it would be a Mon show. Well, magical creatures do in fact appear in this movie eventually. I can't tell if it's faithful to the anime or if fans would like it. I just found it pointless.
Everything is just so cliché and it's all been done before and much better. There's a few token girls, the main character is a big eater, he gets a rival, etc. The side characters were especially forgettable. An ancient evil being awakened has been done a lot of times before too. I've never watched the anime, so I guess I can't judge it that well. I would still take 'Yu-Gi-Oh" over this, the anime not the movie, that was even worse than this. *1/2
