In the quiet corners of the globe, four strangers – a cynical American programmer, an aging Japanese priest, a troubled Arabic mercenary and a mysterious Fijian girl – receive a series of chilling apocalyptic visions. Desperate to understand their frightening visions of the future, these four troubled souls are simultaneously drawn to a dark city in the West where their fates – and the fate of the world – are revealed to be linked together and somehow part of a global conspiracy.

Broken Saints Audience Reviews

Kidskycom It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.
Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
Francene Odetta It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
SamiCybertron What is flash? When people first think of flash they go to Newgrounds, where these days the only flash they have is just childish, immature & pointless specks of Animation of Singing dog turd, beheading celebrities & south park, It seriously looks like any form of Animation has no point anymore.Until...First came along something remarkable & unspeakable, something beautiful & outstanding beyond any measure. Around 2001, an outstanding achievement of perfection & dedication came along, a true figure of beauty and truth, and that was called...Broken Saints. The story of 4 strangers from the quiet corners of the planet, who receive an apocalyptic vision of a dark city in the west, where they have to then come together and bring forth the light and discover the truth of why they are summoned...Thats just the main plot, watch the rest and find out more.Brooke Burgess (the Creator & writer of the series), Andrew West (the lead artist) & Ian Kirby (the visual effects supervisor) have seriously brought together a masterpiece, a double sided piece of artwork with no flaw whatsoever and will bring the ultimate questions of life to a complete full circle... Why are we here? Does God exist? Where are we going? What is the meaning of life? Where are we from? When you watch this series, you would only need to do one thing...Think. About you're life, the people you know, what you have done and what you believe in and what you follow in life.You might think this is something tripped out, you might think you would need to take an absurd amount of drugs to watch this. When the truth is, you have to watch this and have a huge look at you're life and the world...Think. This is nothing well known, nothing too big and certainly nothing short of popularity...But this is special, and something you will need to watch. Also with an outstanding soundtrack composed by Tobias Tinker, the music shall provide the perfect mood to match the perfection of this double-sided piece of artwork.Along with the quotes and passages from some of the greatest authors, teachers, philosophers, musicians and scholars that the world has been blessed with...Each one of those passages speaks the word of truth.The voice actors also give the ultimate performances of their careers to bring this epic story to life, so that also shows that this is a special form of entertainment.I strongly advice you watch this series and you will learn something from its characters, homages to movies, Depth of brilliant writing & brilliant artwork...and Answer the ultimate question...What would you give to know the truth?
Rectangular_businessman This was simply one of the best web animations that I have ever seen. Not since "The Maxx" (Another magnificent animation) have I seen such a captivating mystery story like this. "Broken Saints" is something complex and dark, but at the same time, incredibly fascinating, which never disappoints. Even when the first episodes are a bit slow, I found the overall result to be so rewarding that I wasn't bothered by the way in which the plot advances. In fact, I enjoyed a lot every single moment from this series, since every event which takes place in "Broken Saints" is presented in a very interesting manner which lets the viewer wondering what is going to happen next (I think that it also helped that the fact that the art, music and voice acting from this web series were incredibly well done)"Broken Saints" was the first motion-comic that I've seen in my life. And to this day, it remains being my favorite. The use of all the common animation techniques and visual elements from future motion-comics are perfectly well used here, resulting in something unique and fascinating, which even today is still one of the best (If not the best) examples from this genre, showing all the potential and brilliance that it could have.Taking cues and elements from the most diverse origin (American comics, Japanese animation, television shows like "Twin Peaks" and "The Prisoner" and movies like "Brazil", "The Wizard of Oz" and "Fight Club") the final result is one of the most magnificent examples of what could be done through New Media and how isn't necessary to have a big budget in order to create a visually impressive masterpiece.10/10 (I would give this eleven stars if I could)
spaceboy_x This is unlike anything I ever experienced. A new medium if you will. By the time you realize the depth of the story and characters it is too late for you too turn away. You will be hooked and changed forever. I have never felt compelled to write any words for a film or such but the fact that this production was done so under ( out of ) the Hollywood radar and succeeds on so many levels makes it a compelling success. Give it a shot. There is a darkness that holds this piece together in the beginning but it ultimately redeemed. Anyone feeling the pangs of coping in our auto-destruct, auto-pilot society will feel that they are not alone, indeed they have a friend and a voice who understands. The voice overs are brilliant .. try to pick out the Smoking Man from X-files. I would really love to experience this in theaters.. especially the ending in the cathedral.. check out the old flash web site for a taste I guess.. give yourself some time. This isn't a Hollywood adrenaline fix but rather the real deal Peace
Krin (Krin-san) This series whispers quietly in the back of your head long after you finish watching it. The series is beautiful and deeply thought provoking. It just might change the way you see the world forever.Seriously, it's that deep. I would advise those who watch the series to appreciate the slow pace of the series. There's much that is said through inferences, shadowy speech, and innumerable symbols so the slow pace allows you to study each word and facial expression carefully.If you go beneath the surface and scratch at the truth behind the story, it really could change you. Like the opening menus on the DVDs say, "What would you give to know the truth?"
