GANTZ:O Audience Reviews

Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
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.
Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
hellokittyyum Better than I expected. I thought it would be for kids but it wasn't. It looked amazing. The monsters were so interesting. The one that turned into a bunch of naked ladies was so unique. The ending could have been better though it was pretty confusing
rtwerk-36870 I have nothing to add to the other 10 out of 10 reviews for this amazing movie, except to say that the backstory doesn't matter. I don't read Manga and had no idea what this series was about and it didn't diminish my enjoyment at all. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to grasp the premise of the movie. Just sit back and enjoy one heck of a ride. The animation was jaw-dropping and the character development was spot on. I was actually rooting for most of the characters and the monsters were terrifically horrible. This movie was perfection. It's easily one of the 10 best movies I've seen in the last year. Treat yourself.
infoalwaysacritic Remember that old video game format of beat the boss, but wait - he's back again and this time he's bigger! You know the type: The kind of game that you have to battle the same boss again and again, wondering if this time he's really gone. That's Gantz in a nutshell, only it's a game you'd never want to play because the weapons are illogical, frustrating garbage, and because it would be a real nightmare.As others have said, the cgi animation is on a different level and is stunning in its execution. Creative camera angles and use of lighting make the environments and characters pop with a distinct style that is reminiscent of the final fantasy movies, only with more demons and a lot more blood; buckets of blood.The story centres around a young man who dies, only to find himself resurrected in a deadly game where he and others are pitted against demons, given the glimmer of hope that he can be reunited with his brother if he does well. Taking place over the course of only one session of the game, the film does a decent job of introducing the mysterious black ball that bears the name Gantz and the rules of the game. Unfortunately, the game itself becomes more interesting than any of the characters themselves, and the viewer learns quickly not to be attached to most of them in the process.Despite having a story that is simplistic, it is not that which detracts most from the experience, but the tedious delay with which most elements of the action suffer. The guns used by the players, for example, are not projectile weapons but energy based and have an infuriating delay between firing the weapon and producing any result. Characters stand for long periods of time, pointing, but not using their weapons, at the enemies around them. More than incompetence, the delays seem to be deliberate decisions by the director to increase tension, but these delays instead result in breaking the viewer out of the moment. The heroic and emotional death of one character becomes comedy as he succeeds in killing his opponent, but only seconds after he has already died.Taking into account the style and visual power Gantz brings to the table, the film comes out ahead as a worthy addition to the Gantz anime family. It's a story that is easy to forget, but an experience that will likely make an impression, even if only for its bizarre renditions of Japanese demons.
Neos_back OK, lets start off by saying I love Gantz... but this, no.I watched the English dub (bad idea I know) and I was very disappointed.Animation rocks, great fight scenes and action.A 17 yr old high school kid goes from zero to hero in 2 hours getting a model/ idol AND a 23 yr old mom to fall in love with him setting up his harem for life. Anzu and Reika are useless and annoying throughout. Suzuki is cannon fodder and the whole thing just gives me a headache. I think my main issue with the film is something literally unforgivable... he chooses to abandon his 10yr old brother to continue chilling with his harem. Im not going to lie, this "reasoning" has probably influenced me as it to this day outrages me.The Voice Actors for the dub are awful (nothing new there) and I recommend watching this in Japanese with English subs.
