ThiefHott Too much of everything

Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Marcko9790 I saw this about a month after finishing the show, and I realized I should have seen it sooner. Badlands Rumble is one of those few cases where the movie that is based on a show is up there with the show itself in quality. The animation keeps a style similar to the one of the original show, but it is updated to todays standards...and I LOVE IT! Vash is back, Wolfwood's back, the insurance girls are back...even Kuro- Neko-Sama makes a glorious return! In other words, all the good characters are back, as good as ever. Even the new characters like Gasback for example are very good. And thank you Madhouse for bringing back Tsuneo Imahori to make the soundtrack! I love the original soundtrack so much and was really happy to see his name in the credits again. No one makes Trigun music better than Imahori-Sama, no one!Trigun: Badlands Rumble is *beep* awesome and feels a lot like one of those episodes that never made it into the show, based on the story and feeling. I just love this movie!

Rectangular_businessman This was a good movie: Even when the plot feels pretty much like a extended episode of the original series (More exactly, one of the first 11 episodes, before things start to turn more dramatic and serious) I think it was entertaining enough, having some of my favorite elements of "Trigun", such as the good balance of comedy, adventure and seriousness and very likable characters.The animation from this movie was excellent, showing a huge improvement in comparison with the original anime. The same goes for the art and the designs, which keep the same style from the television show.Without being as great as the last episodes of the " Trigun" anime series, this movie worked very well for me as a very enjoyable and well made animated flick.

husambinni I just saw the movie, and I have to say it was quite an experience, it brought back fond memories of one of the best Animes I've ever seen, Trigun is truly an epic. The animation was top notch, fighting sequences were great too, the story was predictable but that wasn't a bad thing. You really have to thank the creators for their great vision, Vash the Stampede's character is pure genius, he's the hero that everybody loves and respects, and you'll find this apparent in both the TV series and movie. Kudos to everyone who worked on this, hopefully a dub will come along soon. A must watch to all the Trigun fans.

Ian Gear (psychogoatee) Trigun Badlands Rumble is a very good movie, with some nice nostalgia for Trigun fans.It's in the style of the first half of the series, Vash wandering around getting into trouble and helping people out. He runs into our cool heroine of the movie, Amelia, and she's quite likable. Of course, Meryl, Millie, and Wolfwood are in the house as well.The story here is not black and white with good guys and bad guys, it's interesting in that the villains of this movie aren't all that evil, and overall the movie has a more laid-back feel than you might expect.One cool aspect is how they incorporate Vash's past and how old he is, by tying in a flashback from 20 years prior into the current events. We have some nice fun dialogue, great slapstick humor, a crazy bar brawl, lots of action, and a bit of drama to give it some weight. The animation is the most flawless aspect of the movie, the art is detailed and it's lushly done. There's a lot of great detail, and all the wacky background characters have a lot of care put into them.Overall, though the plot takes a couple clever turns, the movie is just a nicely done, very straightforward light action romp, done well. I enjoyed the ending especially, which had a nice way of commenting on Vash's ideals. And of course, this movie is even better for letting us hang out with those classic Trigun characters for another hour and a half. Check it out!
