Product Description

Lupin the 3rd is up to his old tricks as he and Jigen steal a precious diamond during the height of Carnivale. Easy enough for the world’s greatest thief. But Lupin’s walking straight into trouble as the plane he boards for his escape has been prophecied to be hijacked! A bizarre cult called the Nostradamus Sect has successfully predicted the outcome of world events by consulting the ancient writings of their sacred book. And so far, they’ve never been wrong. Aboard the plane Lupin encounters Fujiko working as a nanny for a young girl named Julia. She was hired to steal the book of prophecies, which is being stored in a vault atop a skyscraper owned by Julia’s father, a wealthy American with dreams on the Presidency. What’s more, the vault can only be opened by a member of Julia’s family. Without warning the prophecy comes true and Julia is kidnapped in the process! Can Lupin rescue Julia, find a way into the vault, and discover the connection between the cult and the kidnapping? And what about his diamond?!

4.0 out of 5 stars Err, January 18, 2007

By	Benjamin Bronson "bennicus" (SF, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This one has a great plot and plenty of action and humor and you get to meet some of Lupin's family. But unfortunately it contains some nudity and other rated R stuff. PG in Japan is not the same as PG in the US

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the 3 best Lupin movies ever, February 27, 2006

By	Ronnie Clay "R.C." (Winnsboro, Louisiana) - See all my reviews

This is one of my third favorite Lupin movies. While Castle of Cagliostro is #1 and Dead or Alive is #2.

There's is so much happening. It has a lot to do with religious cult called the "Nostradamus Sect". Which is an actual religion founded by a man named Micheal Nostradamus who lived in the 16th century.

There's a giant skyscrapper called the "Douglas Media Skyscrapper" who is own by the billionaire Douglas who is trying to win Presidental election.
