Alex Nichiporuk Back when I liked Fairy Tail, I stumbled across this movie...and oh my God, it was absolutely terrible. It basically makes the series look worse by comparison. So where do I start:The silent context-less prologue: The beginning of the movie has no dialogue, meaning you have to assume you know what's going on. Not a good way to start a story.The story in general: The story felt so formulaic and predictable that if you watch the series, you know how it will all end.The characters: My biggest beef against this film ere the characters. You have cookie cutter one-dimensional villains shouting the most generic villain dialogue ever...and then you have Lucy. Lucy does ABSOLUTELY nothing in this film, unless you count crying like a stupid baby for most of the film as something. The fact that this film centers around her and her relationship with Eclair, she doesn't add anything to the plot. She is also portrayed to a degree as useless, when I remember that she has keys to summon celestial spirits to aid her.Overall, this movie is not worth watching at all.
caiollig The film Fairy Tail: Priestess of the phoenix is a amazing eye catching film that kazams the hell out of your mind. I think that this film is one of the best of its year and definitely beats all the other anime films except pokémon. Thanks for reading <3 At the beginning when you see the phoenix priestess it is a big confusing to get your head around as it happens so fast... although when you get your head around it you can feel the determination of the girl trying to escape the attack.Furthermore, later in the film we meet the 4 evil wizards who have tremendous powers that work for the king to get the phoenix stones to unlock immortal life. When you get to the end of the film you see the " phoenix" although i think they could have done a better job designing it as it looks like a dancing Mexican.
calbum_garrick Hello, (This is a negative review, but no spoilers contained other than spoling your expectations) Well I'm a big fan of Anime's and have enjoyed quite a few anime films, out of that lot I do enjoy Fairy Tail the series and so watched the film as any fan would, I was not expecting a lot as this is their first film (And the anime series show they are still learning) But gave it a try, and they disappointed my low expectations.Generally I would give this film around 3/10, maybe 4/10 as it is a watchable film, it gives screen time to the whole guild and they will all pull off some moves to keep ya happy (And Happy happy) during the film.But i'm giving it 1/10, my worste rating ever, this is because of a few reasons which I would apply to any film so i'm not being biast:Darkness - The film is VERY VERY dark, half of the film you will just see a black screen with faces moving around and the occasional fireball or something, this goes for all the battles and chases and bits inbetween, this point ruins any film, the other thing I enjoy about Anime's is the amazing worlds people create, and beautiful scenery, this film looks like it decided to skip background imagery and just make it all dark, they will have light scenes, but they will lack my next point.Script - You will notice this issue within around 10 seconds of the film starting and this will continue to the end, lack of dialogue, lack of explanation, the film starts with a 'silent movie'(With music), so unless you've read multiple descriptions of the storyline you will have no idea what is going on, this will not get any better during the rest of the film, I didn't actually laugh once during the film :S (If you leave the sound on but look away from the screen, you won't be missing much)Storyline - Weak, I won't go into this for spoiler sake, but it is weak. If you wanted to, there is a short 20ish min episode which explains a little more into the film's main characters, but again lacking (Plus not part of the film?!?!).If they took this film, cut it into 5 parts and released it as episodes within the series (Labled as fillers) a lot of people would be complaining and skipping it :P I feel cheated :P And they didn't even do much fan sub... tho lucy is always a winner ;)
peter-mackie284 As a youth ,I very much enjoyed anime. Many a night I stayed up late to catch shows such as "Bleach" "Naruto" "Blood+" "Dragon Ball Z (and GT to a lesser extent)". However in the mid to late 2000s, I grew weary of anime. Some of the shows (some being the previously stated) had more than overstayed their welcome and many of the new additions to the anime medium were either more of the same story rehashed with different characters, or downright perverted. On top of that a new wave of "anti heroes" had come into play, not that there's anything wrong with that, I enjoy a good dark hero every once in a while but at that point the medium was plagued by unrelatable and sometimes downright unlikable characters. So naturally I moved on to other story telling mediums to fill the gap that anime had created.But then, fairly recently, this little story caught my eye on the Funimation channel.I decided, despite my previous experience, to give this one a fair chance, and it surely did not disappoint! The characters are three dimensional and likable, the story (while containing some elements from animes past) was original and interesting. That being said the show is certainly not perfect, suffering from an abundance of clichés that sometimes detract from an otherwise wonderful plot, and the featuring of the occasional villain that you've sworn you've seen at least thirty times before in other shows. But that by no means does a bad anime make, and to the shows credit, the jokes are actually very clever and funny, which due to the cultural barrier that is often difficult to translate in anime, is a rarity.What makes this a good anime id simply this, you like the characters. You want to see them succeed and you can often relate to the feelings that they have during their struggles. The characters in the Fairy Tail guild look out for each other, you actually believe that they would be friends in any given scenario. The rivalries are believable and the villains (while sometimes cheesy) have sufficient motivation at all times. To conclude, I would recommend this show to current and prior anime fans, there's something in it for everyone.
