Redline is Original, Redline is Exciting, Redline is the Most Breathtaking Visual Anime Ever...

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 12, 2012

I can't believe it took this long to get to America but thank god it actually got here, and in Blu-Ray. This movie is such an amazing, breathtaking accomplishment of modern Japanese animation that it makes it a must-see for anyone looking to see something new and exciting.

The animation style is a seriously stylish mix of Samurai Champloo (the director was an animator for it), Heavy Metal, Speed Racer, J-pop neon color, F-Zero. This is the first anime I think I've seen that has a clear homage to American animation influences like Heavy Metal and Speed Racer, also to American Rock music (JP's hair is clearly Elvis-style). But what it does is mix all of this together with the Japanese style in such a cool and, ultimately, unique and visually captivating way.

Since the movie has the advantage of being released in the digital, blu-ray age, we are given a COMPLETE SOURCE transfer. That means absolutely no specs, grains, washed-out colors, etc... This is the cleanest a hand-drawn animation can look without being done on a computer. That's why this movie is such a success. The sheer imagination and heart that went into the artwork makes a greatly convincing argument for the beauty and potential of hand-drawn artwork that has completely been absent from American animation.

The music is the next best part. It starts out with the main anthem, "Yellow Line" and gets into the action right away with about an 8-minute race opening that right away captures the awesome feel that the rest of the movie will throw at you. It captivates the tone and emotions at the right points and even gets a little touching at some points as there is a small amount of melodrama to keep this movie from being without any depth, not that it's totally needed but it's a nice touch. The music captures that Redline has this soulful heart to it that you just latch on to.

The story itself is not complex, but that's good because is if it got TOO convoluted in talking then we couldn't really enjoy the limits of animation that this movie pushes so well. The melodrama with JP and with himself and Sonoshee it makes the movie come together in the end that brings out the heart of the creators and staffers on the project that just makes this film special. I'm so happy this movie came out because I was really starting to mourn the end of Japanese animation, especially with the loss of Satoshi Kon. This movie has a soul and that makes it so much more necessary to witness.

That brings me to my only complaint. The dubbing in English was done by Manga Entertainment. That means the dub was given a "typical anime" dub in English. While JP, Sonoshee, and Frisbee's voices are all fine there are other voices that are awkward and too anime that distracts from the universality of the animation. In Japanese, the voices are less cartoonish and more realistic, which makes the movie much better and more in line with the creator's vision. Thankfully, the English and Japanese tracks are both True HD so you can choose which one you like.

Bottom Line: Get Redline. It's beautiful. It's inspirational. It's great. These animators deserve the money for making such an amazing work of art. It doesn't matter whether or not you like anime, this isn't an "anime" it's a Japanese animation and appeals to a wider swatch of people. It's exciting and the movie just goes by so quick because of how awesome it is. BUY THIS MOVIE!!!!!!!!!

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES

IM my life I'm addicted to many many things. (Jesus mainly lol) two of them, are Big American Muscle, and the other Anime. Now these vehicles aren't exactly American muscle, but they are still crazy big A** car things and i love it. Now when it comes to anime, Seinen, romantic comedy, and sic-fi are my thing, its my niche. This anime is heavy on the awesome and the sci-fi, it has its moment for comedy, not much for Seinen but i think its there in a few places, and it does have romance, so ultimately this is 99% of what i want in a movie. (Just add Jesus)

Now as an anime fan I am loyal to subs, very rarely do my friends find me watching a dub. I loved Sword Art Online, Attack on Titan, Guilty Crown, The World God only Knows, Psycho Pass, and Darker than Black. I refuse to watch their english dubbed versions. Now there are a few special cases were the english dubs were better than the subtitled versions, kinda like Drangon Ball Z, Full Metal Alchemist, Hellsing, Cowboy Bebop, Trigun, and you might be able to fit Clannad, Samuria Champloo and baka and test into that column, maybe even Akira if you're a Bosh Fan (I happen to be) but i still liked the subs for Akira.

What does this all mean? Well since an anime is usually made for the Japanese dialect/language, and since japan has about 10x more voice actors and bands than America probably has, it allows the directors and the Original Authors to get their work into the exact form they want it, were as in america we're kinda out of luck and have to interpret things (it doesn't always work.) In this case I feel Redline was very well interpreted, I also feel like the directors wanted this Anime Movie to be dubbed as well. Again I love subs , but with the orgasmic bliss you receive from just the sheer artwork, I think you will get my attitude and decide you want to see the pretty pictures rather than read stupid words.

Redline was very well handled in terms of dubs just like a Miyazaki movie. I think even a Subb fan will be impressed by what went into this movie. So if you haven't guessed yet I prefer the english dubbed version of this movie. The movie Redline astonishingly took about 8 years to make and you can feel it as you watch, this was an anime were they draw the frames like the old stuff from the 90's (true animation). Yet remarkably its in 1080p and rolls at about 60-65fps. Crazy! All of it was drawn, it really shows what people can do, rather than drawing a frame and having the computer move it for you, everything was done by hand and it is nothing less than extremely beautiful. I can't say enough about this move, other than it is fantastic and i hope you love it too.

There is a lot of heart and soul in this move and whether you're an anime fan or not I think you will enjoy this movie. There is a bit of nudity but only for a few seconds, the rest of the movie is just you drooling. Thanks for reading, and get it while you can!

This is one of the greatest anime films! Yes, the plot is basically a racing moving but it is a visual and audible masterpiece. The animation is hand drawn and the music and sound effects keep you at the edge of your seat and set the tone for each scene. The colorful cast of characters do an amazing job at letting you know you are in a wild and wacky sci-fi setting. Definitely recommend multiple viewings as there are plenty of neat little details and connections sprinkled throughout the film. I have watched this film countless times and it never ceases to blow me away. Please do yourself a favor and pick this up!

It Blew My Mind

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on January 10, 2012

Verified Purchase

This Movie has reminded me why I started watching Anime in the first place. I usually decide on how good a film is by it's storyline and characters, and while this film does have a decent plot where it really shines is it's art, designs and race scenes. The film took 7 years to make and is composed of 100,000 hand drawn pictures, no CG. The film uses an experimental art style which looks amazing. because of the long development every scene is great and is full of life. The designs for the characters, locations and vehicles are very creative, the film even has some what-the-heck moments. The middle section of the film is kind of slow moving, the section between the two races, there are some funny scenes and watching the characters interact is very fun. The story, in my opinion is the weakest part of the film, it's very predictable and there is little to no character development. Now for the races and this is where the film really pays it's way, The animation is unbeatable with mind bending chases and physics, each crash, explosion, nirtos speed boost and hair pin turn is executed perfectly. You should defiantly watch this as it is a one of a kind film.

This tops all other anime racers!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on April 19, 2013

Verified Purchase

It maybe a typical racer story where the driver is the hero and features an American pop art style all the way thru but that's not the reason why I recommend this anime!

Everything in this anime is original and stands out, from the vehicles style to the characters, major and minor, which the anime doesn't spare itself from! All the characters and it's designs are likeable despite some being as weird in typical cartoon fashion and minor.

The best part about it (in my opinion), it's original. It's not compared to the other animes in the past that features real life vehicles or some video game that became an anime adaption and that's something worth noting! Redline really draws you into a world and wants you to explore a bit more of it!

If it comes down to an anime, Redline is the one you have to watch and tops all the other racer anime out there and that's why I strongly recommend Redline!

this movie has no equivalent, its the only one that touches this subject , and any anime lover should watch this at least once. its voluptuous colors and forms are equaled only by its outrageous soundtrack.
It has an easy going story with characters which you can easily relate to and for which you get to care for.
lovely story, excentric settings , perfect

Fantastic visual treat.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on May 25, 2012

Verified Purchase

Redline is a must see for anyone who is a fan of animation! Produced without the aid of any 3D modelling but only reference figurines of the vehicles themselves, it took 7 years to produce this movie and it was certainly worth it.

Everything about this movie was more than I expected, the unique art style, likable characters and upbeat soundtrack. The only downfall of Redline is that the pace is so mind-numbingly fast that the scenes with no racing aren't quite as exciting. However ever frame is a visual treat.

I would definitely recommend watching this in HD. This double pack is perfect for compatibility and is great to bring a disc to your friends house. All the extras are included from the Japanese special edition which is great, only one extra doesn't appear which is James Shimoji's Redline Day night club footage, however that is more of a music video than anything else. This is the definite edition of Redline as you get all the extras subtitled and an amazing dub to boot, so it is a great advantage over the Japanese Special Edition.

If you loved Redline than I suggest you check out 'Trava' which contains characters from the same universe. 'Dead Leaves' is a definite watch if you enjoyed the speed and style of the animation, not to mention it is also a whole lot of fun. Dead Leaves [DVD ]

Going for the Redline

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on February 28, 2012

Wow! This is one of the most beautiful animated films I have ever seen! Hand drawn over 7 years the character design and animation are breathtaking.

In terms of plot, think anime Wacky Racers in space. That's really about it. There is a romantic plot of a guy and a girl getting it on, a planet of robots that are at war with the rest of the galaxy, giant monster battles and a planet that has magic instead of technologies, but er... It's pretty much all about the race and the crazed characters that take part in it!

I won't give it five stars as the overal story is a little shallow, it just goes from set piece to set piece but when the animations this good it's fun to just sit back and watch the randomness unfold.

Oh one last criticism, it's quite misogynistic in the way women are portrayed. Sadly I offen expect this from Japanese animation but here It was a little jarring.
Overal a good nights entertainment, if you feel like turning off your brain and enjoying the spectical!
