Summary: Great Movie!
Review: Three great short films from Japan based on the popular series come together in edited form to make 90 minutes of entertainment. And having Kari, one of the characters, narate the story gives the appearance of one story, which adds to the strength of this movie

The first movie is approximately 10-15 minutes long and details what happened four years before the first season of the show. Tai and his sister Kari see a digi egg exit from their computer screen and a small Digimon is born. Kari becomes attached to this creature. Eventually, the Digimon digivolves to Greymon and protects the city from Parrotmon.

The first movie has it's moment. Young Kari is adorable and even in young Tai we already begin to see Tai the leader of the Digidestined that we see in the first season of Digimon. The friendship between Kari and Agumon also adds a touching element to the story. It's almost heartbreaking when, after the Digimon disappears, Kari yells out, "Don't you wanna play with me anymore?"

We fast forward four years later. The second movie takes place after the first season of the show. It's unclear exactly when. Izzy, one of the Digidestined, joins with Tai to try and defeat this strange Digimon who is invading the internet. With the help of their Digimon, Agumon and Tentomon, they try to battle this strange Digimon. But this Digimon keeps digivolving at an accelerated rate. So Izzy contacts the other Digidestined and manages to get Matt and TK to help along with their Digimon...Patamon and Gabumon. Agumon and Gabumon are able to digivolve to their Mega level...and eventually join together and defeat this evil Digimon....or so they think...

The second movie has a lot of action...but every few minutes, the action goes down a bit so we can have some humor. The main subplot of the second movie involves a silly argument between Tai and Sora. Tai tried to give Sora a hair clip for her birthday and Sora thinks this is Tai's way of criticizing her hairstyle. :) Women! They always have to analyze everything. Anyway...the battles are intense and the music just great. Many songs from the tv show are played during the battle and you can't help but sing along...if you like the music, of course.

The third movie takes place four years later...Sometime during the second season. (Actually, the second season still hasn't reached the point at which this part of this movie is set. This is clearly seen because in the show, Patamon and Gatomon don't have the ability to warp digivolve yet, an ability they clearly have in this movie.) Anyway...in this part of the movie, we learn that the evil Digimon four years ago was created by Willis and is actually a computer virus. And it wasn't really defeated. It somehow escaped into the real world and has infected one of Willis' digimon. Willis is also a Digidestined and has twin digimon. Anyway...for the past four years, one of Willis's Digimon was infected with the virus and making Willis' life miserable. But with the help of Davis and the other Digidestined, they manage to defeat the virus again and free Cocomon from the virus' control.

The third movie, while not as charming as the first two, has some moments. Humor is one of it's strenght. The plot is a bit vague...but it doesn't hurt the movie in general.

So, if you are a fan of the show, you will not be dissappointed by this movie.

Summary: Digimon: The Movie
Review: In 1991, the makers of Tamgotchi came out with a simular device called a Digimon, a digital monster. Five years later, Pokemon popped up. Many will say Digimon was a copy, but they just haven't heard of it because of less merchandising (Pokemon has actual planes and cars!) Pokemon came out with a TV show, and so did Digimon. Pokemon was very popular and came out with four movies so far. Digimon came out with this one. When I used to like Pokemon, I counted down till the first movie. I was terribly disappointed. Digimon was so cool, I decided I would get it on video as soon as it came out. It had history on the Digimon and Digidestined, and was really funny, too. I loved it a lot. I hope Digimon becomes a bit more popular and they make a sequal!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Digimon
Review: This was an awesome movie,I went to see it with my friend Daniel the animation was different from the cartton, but hey it had some 3D in it, anyway you may think the plot is stupid, but there were like 30 explosions and guys flyin all around.It was a bit disturbing at the end, the guy gets his face sliced open(they dont show it though) their are 2 parts in it one were the main bad guy is Diaboramon, the other with this guy called Cocoamon.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Very good story and good animation!
Review: Digimon is about these "monsters" chosen by humans. Digimon are created in the Digimon World. In this movie there are seven digi- destines (human tamers of digimon). One digi-destin needs help with his digimon, so other digi- destines help him. This move has fantastic graphics,funny here and there (hee, hee), and has very good characters.

RATED 7UP

Summary: way better than pokemon any day!
Review: I really liked this movie!! it was awsome!!! here's my review

Digimon the movie is a three part movie. It begins when the digi destind Tai,kari,matt,joey,sora,mimi,izzy etc. well, it's stars with younger tai and kari. One night their computer does something weird and makes a digi egg or whatever it's called. later it hatches a digimon and it keeps evolving. and thats all for this part.

Part 2. It begins with this evil digimon (forgot it's name) causeing a HUGE virus! Tai Izzy and the gang have to stop it before it destroys the whole internet.

Part 3 Its starts off with all the digimon characters includeing, Tai,kari,davis,etc. (no ken) They meet this kid from america (sorry I'm so bad with names) His digimon keeps attacking him because (warning spoiler) the evil digimon virus is inside him and trying to get them to help him. So they all try to defat it.

An thats all the info for now. now for my comments. This movie had alot of action and some comedy! it was funny! Now notice it's rated PG theres a reason. The action is violent and might sacre kids hmmm maybe under 7 I guess. so, yeah.

Now I her that this is another pekemon craze WRONG!!! people say oh digimon is a pokemon copycat again WRONG!!! FYI people digimon came first!! The dub just came out later so take note of that! and now to stop my ranting. anyways this was a freat movie!! way better than pokemon any day! I'm 11 now and still like digimon. yeah I know you think it's insicure for some my age likes digimon but it really isin't. This is a great movie/tv series great for the whole family! The movie and art is great! so buy this! or atleast rent it!

Summary: SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSwwwwwwwwwwwwwwweeeeeeeeeeeeeeettttttttttt!!!!
Review: I hate these stupid Digimon people they go hee hee digimon came first pokemon is a copy cat of digimon.Everybody knows that it's a total lie.You liars!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!If you don'nt beleive me lets see........pokcket monsters ..digital monsters....which one seems newer???duh digital monsters.If you have ever watched pokemon then digimon you would see they wanted to make digimon better so they made the monsters cooler but they're acuall retarted (so are the lame characters).If you have read the other reviews about evolving and pre evolving they say pokemon just evolve and dijimon do both.NOw who seems like a copier there digimon!!!!!!!!why would pokemon make a show where you can only evolve pokemon?????????duh cuz pokemon came first.If these digimon fans acually read things they would no the truth.



And the show is so stupid.I like pokemon cuz of the video games not the show and now they made digi dumner

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: COOL!
Review: u will hate this movie.kids will hate it and adults will be numbed. DIGIMON IS A RIPOFF OF POKEMON

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Digimon the movie
Review: This movie is a must buy!!!!This is one of my favourite movies.I have had it for about three years and I still watch it.I especially like the soundtrack,HOLYMOLY is it ever cool.And at the end there is even a music video extra "kids in america"by Len.It is well worth your money!but you probably heard the saying nothing is perfect,well they were right again.Digimon is broken into three different time periods,when Tai was about nine,four years later,and present day.some time periods not as good as other ones.My favourite is four years later because they introduce "Omnimon" a new digimon!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Dubbing At Its Worst
Review: Okay I'm not going to go into the details about the plot but if you want to see the Digimon Adventure movies do not buy this tape. Basically the company that dubbed it crammed three of the Japanese movies into one, edited them, gave it their own "soundtrack" and rewrote the plots to connect them.

I own all but the first of the original Toei releases of the movies they combined and they bear little resemblance to the originals. I find it ironic that on the back it says that the main characters are kidnapped by a "wayward digimon" when they cut that entire part of the plot when they released it.

And no Digimon is not a Pokemon rip-off in fact the Digimon Virtual Pets were released several years before the Pokemon games. The Japanese titles of the movies combined to make this release were Digimon Adventure Movie, Our War Game, Digimon Hurricane Touchdown! Supreme Evolution! The Golden Digimentals.

And a last note, Angela Anaconda and Digimon Adventure should not be used in the same sentence.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Digimon at its best
Review: Whether you like Anime, or you were into Digimon from the start, this series is awesome, and the movie did a great job of capturing it on the big screen.

Unlike Pokemon, Digimon (the movie as well as the actual show) has a great plot and an even greater set of characters, whom you see gradually mature over time. Everything about this movie captures the Digimon air fans know in the show: the humor (Davis and Tai especially), the adventure, the romance (the Tai/Sora relationship is simply tormented in the film, but in a way you know brings the two of them closer together), the friendship, etc.

It's one of my favorite films, and I just hope they'll have enough sense to translate the second movie sometime soon and bring it over to the States.
