Summary: I luv this movie
Review: To me this is the perfect anime movie. Being female I have a soft spot for touching emotional stories about love and heartache, however I hate dramas. Kinda wierd huh? What I do like is touching love stories when they are combined with elements of gore, fighting, and did I mention gore? Especially when creepy demons are running about. Cool. This movie didn't have a whole lotta action but it is there and the sheer atmosphere of the setting is creepy enough to give you goosebumps. It does have it's fair share of blood and killing tho' for freaks like me that crave that kinda thing. What I really loved about the movie was the extremly beautiful and tragic love story intertwined in it. I even cried at the end. The story is also very good, there is a lot of talking but if you actually listen to what they're saying you'll find it all ties in together very nicely. The character designs and music are also very gorgeous. I should add that the dub is extremely well done and impressed me greatly. No corny high pitched screeching like some animes. I recommend this for anyone who likes a little blood, a good story and setting, and tragic love.

Summary: Very stylish and intriguing Anime
Review: Twilight of Dark Master is beautifully drawn Anime with very stylish cinematography, resembling that of dramatic Hong Kong action films. Despite its violent and gory content, such stylish quality makes it interesting to watch, in a eccentric, twisted sort of way. However, I felt the movie was little short with very little story development, leaving not much understanding of the plot or the characters.

Summary: Highly entertaning and thoughtful
Review: Twilight of the Dark Master is a wonderful piece on good,evil and those stuck between. Violent and provacative this film takes its time, allowing the audience to learn and understand the motivations of its characters. In all a beutiful and brilliant piece not suitable for all, but definatly suited for the open minded or lovers of the medium.

Summary: Cool movie with a few flaws
Review: Twilight of the Dark Master was, in my opinion, a cool movie. The main character was powerful. In many movies, heroes and villains get into huge brutal battles, exhibiting phenomenal power but always managing to end with some dramatic finish and/or stalemate. Not so with this. Also, the animation was great and the ending very clever. On the critical side, the movie was too short, leaving some questions unanswered clearly. I would recommend renting before purchasing, as $20 is a bunch to pay for 50 minutes.
