Mini Anime Review - Digimon: The Movie Part 1 "Digimon Adventure"/ "Eight Years Ago" (1999)




The totally unexpected attempt to cash in on the success of the original Pokemon movies - Digimon: The Movie sees the first 3 Japaneese digimon movies compressed and cut down massivly into one feature, with poorly scripted ties to link the 3 unrelated pictures together.  Each one is allocated a time and I will review eac film seperatly.


Movie/Part 1 is the original pitch of the show, set years before adventure, a harmless little adventure with Kari and a larger more deadly Agumon. Some fine animation but nothing significant. Some cute sound moments with Kairi sinign the theme song, and this one at least somewhat can relate to the 2nd film, being both about the Adventure kids. The dub gives the extras some pretty funny lines as per usual and I like hearing the cast I grew up with.


Rating - 
  • Looks - 2.8/5
  • Sound - 2.2/5
  • Plot - 3.5/5
  • Characters - 3.6/5
  • Overall - 12.1/20
