The animation quality of Dead or Alive is something that impressed me a lot. The other films are fun as well. Animators and fans alike can learn from the quality of the art.

This review is from: Lupin the 3rd Movie Pack: First Haul (DVD)

Most people say "it ain't Miyuzaki". However, the difference (besides style) is action. This movie pack has a lot more to do with cunning and ingenuity than just straight boom and blow em' up. I think anyone who likes 007, or likes watching "Cat-and-Mouse" movies will really like this one. One word of caution: This is definately not a movie for kids...so make sure they're gone!! And to Die-Hard anime fans like myself, swoop this one up while you can!!! It's worth it!

This review is from: Lupin the 3rd Movie Pack: First Haul (DVD)

I've been meaning to start a Lupin the Third collection, and the First Haul set of DVDs was an excellent choice to start with. I may be a bit biased seeing as this my favorite anime series, but I enjoyed all five movies. I was worried that a Funimation dub would be sub par and just not work, but I was wrong. During the first movie, it seemed like the cast was still getting into character a bit, but after that, they just fell into the roles of the characters I've come to know and love.

I thoroughly enjoyed the plot of each film, as well. While I'm sure there are flaws, I was too busy enjoying the films to notice any.
