Irishchatter I just didn't feel this is one of the best especially since watching the Fuma conspiracy and like to be completely honest with you, Lupin III: The Castle of Cagliostro is the better ones out of them all. I'm not a hater of Lupin but I really think they shouldn't have bothered making other Lupin Movies unless they were going to be as good as Castle of Cagliostro. However none I've watched were any better then it. As well having a child sidekick doesn't match with Lupin like he didn't team up with annoying kids in his past movies. I am dissaponted in this movie along with many rest that I'll ever see. I haven't got words to say but I'm not watching any more Lupin Movies after this one even if someone made me to watch it! 1/10 I give this I'm afraid...
bspice Only recently have I stumbled across the Lupin III series, and they have found a way to tag along at the end of my daily routines. Distinct characters, interesting plots, and an unusual sense of anxiety on what could happen next. The first few I had seen were intriguing none the less, but it wasn't until I had seen Farewell to Nostradamus that I had truly been engulfed by this world that Monkey Punch had created.These movies are usually very fast paced and chaotic. Farewell to Nostradamus handles this well and succeeds where a lot of the Lupin III spawns blunder, at creating a smooth and climactic story line. There is never a point where the viewer is overloaded with plot material, all while building up to a tense and very satisfying ending.Quick synopsis: Lupin III is a sly, suave, and slick international thief. He is accompanied by; Jigens (a nicotine addicted gun slinger), Goemon (a patient samurai), and Fujiko (a heart and neck breaker).After a successful diamond theft, the team quickly turns their attention towards a high paying job. To find the lost pages of prophet, Nostradamus. Soon they are stuck in the middle of a presidential election, a kidnapping, and the eerily accurate predictions of a modern day doomsday cult. All while being chased by INTERPOL's leading investigator, Zenigata.
Ben Lupin III: Die Nostradamus is a great film. The animation is crisp, humor at its best and action non-stop. This one is even more risqué compared to other Lupin films, containing nudity and a high body-count.The premise of the story is rather straight-forward. Douglas, the heir to a wealthy Georgian-based clan, is planning to run for the American presidency. Douglas' daughter Julia is kidnapped by a cult associating themselves with the famous predictor Nostradamus. They seek Douglas to call off his presidency aspirations and give them his ancient book of Nostradamus' predictions. Meanwhile Lupin and his gang are looking to save Julia and claim a $50 million prize for the book of Nostradamus also. This Lupin has a lot going on in it. With various action in Brazil, including the Amazon jungle, Morocco, Atlanta, Grenada and Executioner's island. Many different action sequences and small but effective jokes put this over-the-top as on of Lupin's best yet.If you're big on Lupin, anime or even film in general I'd recommend this. Kick back, relax and enjoy the ride!
emasterslake This is one of my third favorite Lupin the 3rd Movie. While Castle of Cagliostro is #1 and Dead or Alive is #2.There's so much happening in this movie. It has allot to do with this Religious Cult called the "Nostradamus Sect". Which is an actual religion founded by a man named Micheal Nostradamus who lived in the 16th century.And there's also this Giant Skyscrapper called the "Douglas Media Skyscrapper" who is own by the Billionaire Douglas who is trying to win the Presidentical Election.I won't give away too much on what happens in the movie. But this movie has allot of good parts, explosives, action, and danger.It's worth buying on DVD. A must have for any die-hard Lupin fan.
