tenshi_ippikiookami After the first two good movies of this trilogy, this last one,"The Advent", is a disappointment.The story continues after the events that ended the previous one. Guts is back, and he gets back with Casca and the others. Pretty soon there is a rescue mission to get Griffith back and out of the dungeon where he is languishing.What follows is a mess that lasts for over an hour.What could have been a cool rescue mission or some nice fight scenes (as in the previous two), here descends into purposeless carnage, with gore, blood and monsters just making their appearance for not particular reason, and characters that had been developed in the previous two movies left as little more than just caricatures of themselves. We are not getting into this kind of action movies for their plot, but at least a little bit of interest in developing it and the characters is expected. And the action does not help in this case, because, as said, it is boring, repetitive and lazy.Fans may enjoy reuniting with the characters, but there is little else to recommend.
bjduker If you're into torture, rape and anime porn; then this is your kind of flick, because there is nothing other than that here. Ultra self-absorbed characters spewing whiny drivel throughout the entire movie laid upon the thinnest plot. All drawn out by one endless dramatic pause after another.I thought it would never stop...Pure trash.
darthsitkur A year after guts and Griffith part ways, he and the band of the hawk conduct a rescue mission to bail Griffith out of jail. I came across the first movie on Netflix and thought it was great, caught the second one on youtube and thought it was even better than the first, and bought this one off of iTunes and it was so intense and so brutal that it made Dante's inferno: an animated epic look like a walk in the park. The first two were action/adventure/war films, but this one was action, adventure, horror, and dark fantasy all rolled up into one. this is quite honestly the best animated film I've ever seen, and it's even better than the first two if you ask me. I definitely recommend the The berserk trilogy to fellow anime fans, they have great stories, great voice acting, they're filled with brutal action, they're creepy, they're dramatic, they're intense, they're raw, and they have insane amounts of gore. they won't be disappointed
Reno Rangan The third installment of 'Berserk: The Golden Age Arc' movie series which was based on the manga series. As expected the movie didn't disappoint me but still first two are the epic compared to it. Yes first two were war genre, fully gore, awesome movies and this third one was slightly turned out fantasy-horror. After where it ended in second part I thought the revenge will commence in its follow-up story but it surprised me and took us on the different path.This story follows after a year since Guts and Griffith parted. Some of the escaped Hawk bands prepare for the rescue mission in the Casca's stand-in command to bring back their leader. Soon, Guts join them, the rescue team becomes much stronger. Not wasting much time the mission commence and what comes next is the unexpected twist and theme transformation. The dark world unleashes, without a mercy it assault the heroes and leaves the unforgettable scars. The best part of all these three movies were the way the movie ended. It leaves something broad open which makes us to guess what will happen next like a mind twister.Yeah I know most of the people like Guts and it is my favourite character as well. In this part The Griffith character was weakened but we knew it coming. As he was a mysterious character from the very first movie especially with his 'golden egg' I knew there must be some story behind it. This movie did not explain that portions very well, maybe we can expect that in the next part, I hope so. And Casca was as usual supported very well.The sex scenes were stronger like in 'The Battle for Doldrey', so the movie is not suitable for everyone. Those who like sword-war theme and Anime especially gore will enjoy it. If you have not seen first two, begin with those, you will love this trilogy for sure. Now I am eagerly waiting for its fourth. Highly recommended for adults.8/10
