unlike other reviewers i didn't pick up this title to get an uplifting message or to teach me a lesson on good manners, but i did pick it up hoping for 90 minutes worth of kick-butt entertainment and i was more than satisfied.
the visuals are compelling, the ink drawings are beautiful and the narrative form is interesting and fresh.
If you're looking for an action-packed and intriguing immersion into another reality, then this is for you. I would compare it with similar films to get you acquainted with the style, but this film is so unique it's hard to think of something similar --at least in moving pictures.
if you're looking for a neatly packed moral tale with tips on good manners, then i would suggest Disney's recent release of "The Princess and The Frog".

Be aware that the title Godkiller: Walk Among Us [Complete Film DVD] is a little deceptive as at the end of the movie it displays rather boldly "TO BE CONTINUED". Since the storyline seems to be incomplete I'm left with one of two conclusions: 1) there will be another DVD following this one or 2) the storyline ends as shown (I can't go into more detail without a spoiler).
That aside I found the story quite compelling, dark, with a solid mature rating. Animation is sparse and in places look more like doodles than finished product.
If you've ever listened to 'book on tape', its a lot like that except you sit in front of the TV. So to sum up I am a little miffed at the packaging, it seems deceptive to me. I am satisfied with the creative product, not overwhelmed or thrilled, but a prior viewing was good enough for me to seek what I thought was the rest of the story.

Not an in-depth review, let's just get to the point GODKILLER is amazing! Excellent voice casting, super dramatic art and a super dark story. It makes me fear for the future!!

This was an unbelievable experience.
From the second it starts I am just in awe of the visuals.
The writing feels genuine and characters so believable for a sci fi graphic novel.
If I had to criticize something, some of the voice work was a tad uninspired, but over all I would recommend this over and over again.
This makes me think that I haven't seen it all.
