A memorable experience and a whole lot of fun to watch from start to finish. Ultimately, it is a film that can be enjoyed by many and shows quality in many forms whether it be the visuals, it's premise, the songs and the fact that it is a one piece movie like no other and although advertised and is pretty much non-canon, it does have links and large hints to canon information for the future. More importantly, the major characters that had significance in the movie all shined and had their memorable moments. To be completely honest, there are actually characters that may fall under that definition but it is nothing major enough to be considered a big flaw or anything that kills off enjoyment. When I first saw promotional posters and character images, I was initially afraid there would be too many characters and too many that do nothing and add nothing and don't get that much screen time compared to what we may have expected. Shanks is obviously the poster boy of the movie and thankfully, getting to see Shanks with more than 1 minute of screen time was a joy. She had lots of focus in the movie and her character arc from start to finish was handled quite well. She was likable, intriguing backstory, her voice actor and the singing voice were perfect, has a great character design and has links to a classic beloved character. The people working on Film Red understood the significance of music in the movie perfectly and it showed.Ĭharacter Wise, Uta and Shanks would of course be the main talking points and Uta specifically was a great presence in the movie. Green Apple, Vaundy, Fake Type., Yuta Orisaka, Motohiro Hata and the great Hiroyuki Sawano. Because it couldn't have been better.Įven outside of Ado's fantastic vocals, many great artists and producers were also part of the music and it's a list that includes names such as Yasutaka Nakata, Mrs. There was even an interview where it stated there was supposed to be an audition for the singing voice of Uta but when Ado showed up, the audition was ended because everyone quickly knew Ado would be the one. I am actually a big fan of Ado and her music, so music-wise it was as perfect as it could possibly get. ![]() This is not the case because although music is subjective, each song was quite perfect for the scene they played in, the role it had in the movie and how it contributed. With that said, it might be assumed there would be one song that's not so good. Which is a pretty large amount when it comes to songs used in a movie. There are seven songs in the movie all sung by the fantastic Ado. Like said earlier, Music is a crucial part of the story and Film Red does this perfectly. Music Wise, It is one of the easiest 10/10's I will ever give. Every fight scene looks incredible, the art style and top tier animation is not only beautiful but consistent throughout the movie and it undoubtedly is one very strong point out of many strong points that Film Red has to offer. There is some CGI in some bits here and there but that's about the most that can be criticized because almost everything is perfect visually. In terms of Art and Animation, it can be a extremely fair statement to say it is the best one piece movie when it comes to it. When it came to the peaks and the ending moments, Film Red knew how to do it. ![]() It is a one piece movie after all so it makes sense for the target audience to be big fans of this series. Due to the fact that it is connected to a full anime series, It is also naturally done in a way for one piece fans to enjoy it. Everything was paced to a good level and there were never those moments where you are awkwardly staring at the screen wondering "what is even going on?". ![]() In many cases, it can be a fair point that an incredibly large amount of seven songs is too much but the way Film Red is directed and presented, this would be far from the truth because the music is not only a key part of Uta but the movie as a whole. It is narratively quite unique in comparison to other one piece films but it showcased the ability to highlight the character of Uta and the magical world of film red to a perfect level while also being able to combine many elements of what we love about one piece such as the same enjoyable cast as usual, occasional nice comedic bits, great fight scenes, scenes that are hype, scenes that are emotional and a nice setting and moments which make you grateful to be a fan ofĪ pretty significant direction style that can be noticed is the large amount of music present in the movie and how "music-based" it is. Enjoyable, Emotional, Engaging and the type of movie where you can't help but smile while watching.
