An Excellent Movie for any Digimon Fan 4 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.
Digimon - The Movie is a must see for any Digimon fan. Originally the first three Digimon films in Japan, it contains characters and stories from the first two seasons of Digimon, the TV series. Even though it is three different films strung together, the story flows quite nicely from Tai and Kari's first encounter with a Digimon, to the introduction of Diaboromon, to Diaboromon's ghostly viral curse. The film has amazing battle scenes and a beautiful animation style. The story is simple and its basic theme of friendship is a bit childish, but it is a great film nonetheless. Again, I recommend this film for any Digimon fan.
I love this movie 5 out of 5 stars.

I really love this movie because the animation is a very original style, and though its a bit on the odd-looking style, its decidedly NOT the typical anime. It also has this great fluidity to the way thinsg move in it that I utterly adore. Thedubbers actually did a pretty good job with the translation and music selection. I understand that it was originally three different 'mini movies' in Japan, and the dubbers were able to combine them really well so that the transitions weren't too bad. They all had a connection with one another so it wasn't seperated completely.
All in all, I think this is a great movie if you're a fan of animation and so forth.

The story begins with seven young children (Tai, Izzy, Matt, T.K., Sora, Mimi, and Joe) brought together under extraordinary circumstances. During a trip to summer camp, an earthquake envelops them all, and sends them to a realm known as the Digital World. They meet creatures called Digital Monsters, creatures (some friendly, others aren't) that are capable of evolving (or Digivolving) into more powerful forms. They immediately befriend the children, becoming their partners and helping them survive the many perils of the Digital World. However, as their journey continues, they learn that the world they are trapped in isn't a game, and learn of the true reason they were sent there. The Digital World is threatened by a great evil, and the children learn of their true destiny as the Digidestined. In order to suceed, they must realize the true potential of their Digimon and themselves. They also receive different crests of virtue (courage, friendship, sincerity, love, hope, reliability, knowledge, and light) to help in their mission. But, the danger is mounting and the Digidestined's battle to save the Digital World will soon spill into their own....

A worthy successor to Season 1 5 out of 5 stars.
2 of 3 people found this review helpful.
The second Digimon series is a direct continuation of the first one. Three years later, with most of the original DigiDestined now in high school at age fourteen, the Digital World was supposedly secure and peaceful. However, a new evil has appeared in the form of the Digimon Emperor who as opposed to previous enemies is a human just like the DigiDestined. The Digimon Emperor has been enslaving Digimon with Black Rings and Control Spires and has somehow made regular Digivolution impossible. However, five set Digi-Eggs with engraved emblems have been appointed to three new DigiDestined along with T. K and Kari. This new evolutionary process, dubbed Armor Digivolution, helps the new DigiDestined to defeat evil lurking in the Digital World.
The collector's case is identical to season 1. The video and audio is stellar like the first season. If you have the first season, then you have to make sure you get the 2nd one as well.

Editorial Review:
3 years have passed since the Digidestined saved the Digital World. The Digital World has been peaceful since...until a new and different threat arrives. The Digital World is now being terrorized by the Digimon Emperor. Their new enemy is using the Digital world as a game to fuel his frustrations and ambitions. The Digidestined are called back into action once again to put a stop to the Digimon Emperor's iron-fisted domination over the Digital World. However, new allies and Digimon join them in this new battle. But they soon learn that the Digimon Emperor is only a pawn of a new and mysterious evil threatening the Digital World. All of which will culminate in a battle that will involve the entire all of Earth....

One of the Most underrated Animes 5 out of 5 stars.
10 of 11 people found this review helpful.
Many people often lable Digimon as a simple Pokemon clone when in fact it is much deeper. The characters (digi-destined) deal with real issues that normal adolescents face daily, all the while trying to save 2 worlds. This dvd introduces the series as it contains the first 7 episodes. I give this dvd 5 stars for the content alone (the quality of the dvd itself is superb). I guarantee once you put aside the "kiddie" fascade prejudice, you'll realize that this series is a jem.

The Plot Sickens, as Piedmon Would Say 1 out of 5 stars.
2 of 20 people found this review helpful.
Because my earlier review of Season One of Digimon was so widely misunderstood, I've decided to edit this review. First off, this "Season One" collection of Digimon episodes is not the entire season. It is a single DVD that contains the first bunch of episodes of the season (the Devimon episodes). It also features a few of the Myotismon episodes. While the episodes with Myotismon weren't bad, I HATE the Devimon episodes. Devimon was a boring villain, and those episodes seemed to be aimed at very young children. If you ever saw the incredibly annoying episode called "Digibaby boom", you'll know what I'm talking about. When I saw stupid episodes like that, I felt more like I was watching an episode of the Teletubbies than an "action/adventure" cartoon. Since this set of Digimon episodes contains episodes that for the most part annoyed the hell out of me, I give this DVD one star.
Now that I've criticized the DVD, I will devote the rest of this review to discussing the entire first season of Digimon. I liked a lot of episodes from the first season, BUT THOSE EPISODES ARE NOT INCLUDED ON THIS DVD. If the episodes I actually liked were included, I'd give this DVD a higher rating. Season one would always have a major enemy (or group of enemies) for the Digidestined to defeat. The episodes with Etemon were alright, the episodes with Myotismon were good (with a few exceptions), and the episodes with the Dark Masters were AWESOME. But as I've already said, the episodes I enjoyed aren't on this DVD.
As many like to point out, Digimon was made BEFORE Pokemon. Pokemon is a `cute' show that little kids can enjoy, but Digimon is an odd combination of `cute' mixed with `ugly/brutish'. The cute aspects were the rookie digimon, and the digi-destined themselves, who were children. The ugly and brutish aspects were the mega digimon, the evil digimon (like Myotismon and Devimon) and some surprisingly graphic violence, which is aimed at older children. In my case, I LOVED the `ugly/brutish' aspects of the show and HATED the `cute' aspects of the show. That's right - I can't stand the Digidestined, and I was always rooting for the bad guys to win. This DVD contains episodes that largely fall in the `cute' category. Keep in mind, that Digimon was a rather mature show made in Japan that was aimed at teenagers. The geniuses at FOX KIDS dumbed the show down for its American audience, and decided to aim the show at young children. Something I disliked about this is that a lot of young children are exposed to some rather graphic violence (especially in the Digimon movie), but then again, kids today are exposed to graphic violence on a daily basis, so I shouldn't complain. And what follows is the rest of my unedited review, where I discussed what I liked/disliked about Season One of Digimon:
Not a single thing in this show is funny - every joke falls flat. But I did like a lot of the Dark Masters' lines, and a lot of Piedmon and Puppetmon's lines made me laugh with glee. The music in this show is HORRIBLE - some of it sounds like Fred Penner playing an electric guitar. And they play that godawful theme song about a million times in every episode. But they had some dramatic music that sounded really cool playing when Piedmon walks up the stairs of his castle and busts down the doors right before having a fight with Angemon. I especially like the way Piedmon will hold two swords by their hilts in each of his hands, then yell "TRUMP SWORDS!" and throw them like darts at his opponent. The sight of someone being impaled by one of his swords is most impressive.
I liked how all the Dark Masters team up to wipe out the Digi-Destined in one knock out blow. But the Digi-Destined escape (unfortunately), and the Dark Masters figure they're so easy to destroy that it would be more fun for each Dark Master to single-handedly take on the Digi-Destined at a time. Unsurprisingly, the Dark Masters pay dearly for their arrogance. I felt especially bad for Piedmon, who went through the terrifying Gate of Destiny.
I like how the Dark Masters are representative of absolute evil - there's no shades of gray here. Their ultimate plan is to eliminate or enslave EVERYONE. I love that plan. None of them have a conscience, or have any delusions that what they are doing isn't evil. Indeed, they derive sadistic pleasure by committing heinous acts - if they were in the real world, such actions would amount to crimes against humanity. The Biblical concepts of `absolute good' and `absolute evil' don't exist in real-life, but it's sometimes refreshing to watch a TV show where they do exist, even if it's a simplified reality. Whether they're screaming "RIVER OF POWER!", razing entire cities to the ground, or threatening to destroy the Digi-Destined, I found them so entertaining that a few years ago I taped all the episodes featuring the Dark Masters.
The best quote of the show is when Machinedramon busts through a wall and says in his supercool voice "Oh good. Just what I was looking for. VICTIMS." Then Machinedramon proceeds to massacre everyone in his path. Another great moment was when Metaletemon was doing a rock song about destroying the Digi-Destined, then an annoyed and infuriated Puppetmon screams "ENOUGH!" before the two have a hilarious brawl and spit a lot of insults at each other.
I took a glance at some of the other negative customer reviews, and some good points are raised. This DVD set is not the whole season, and some nut only seems to have chosen the absolute worst episodes for inclusion of this set. THE EPISODES WITH THE DARK MASTERS AREN'T INCLUDED! Oh well... Machinedramon ought to use Plan ELIMIN EIGHT on this DVD set - notice their use of wordplay?

Simply Amazing Digimon DVD! 5 out of 5 stars.

For years I have been searching and hoping that a new Digimon dvd would be released. Well my search is finally over thanks to Alliance Entertainment. After buying the Twentieth Century Fox Season 1 release back in 2001 (mind you, it was not the complete season 1...rather just random episodes), I was hoping some company would finally release Season 1 in "order." Well this disc does that and more. The disc contains the first 6 episodes of Season 1. The Video & Sound quality on the dvd are absolutely perfect. Unlike the 2001 release, the video quality wasn't compromised aka no pixelation. Here are the discs contents:
Episodes 1-6
1."And So It Begins,"
2."The Birth of Greymon,"
3."Garurumon"
4."Biyomon Gets Firepower,"
5."Kabuterimon's Electro Shocker,"
6."Togemon in Toy Town"
Extras Include
*Tai Bio and motion gallery
*Augumon Bio and motion gallery
*Matt Bio and motion gallery
*Gabumon Bio and motion gallery
*Original Japanese Ending
Ultimately this dvd is a dream come true for any Digimon fan as most consider season 1 as the best. Hopefully more volumes will follow in the future. I recommend this dvd for any animation collector as Digimon is one of the rare series that can be enjoyed by children and even adults. Truly a MUST HAVE DVD!
