I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

From my point of view (as an avid manga reader in general, not this title only, yet not too much anime, since it's too much time consuming), the adaptation was good enough. And I mean adaptation. It is not following the manga by letter, but it's enjoyable enough. I don't quite get this 'omg it sucks' hype. There are many movies out there who fare much worse in comparison, so if we are to compare at the bigger picture level (which we should) then this movie deserves better.I didn't have high hopes for it, so maybe that's what made it more enjoyable. Yes, the effects are not that good, the acting also could be better, but overall I give it 8 stars for the effort and, well, drama.Keep in mind that I am considering both parts in this review.
View MoreThis is possibly the most frightening movie I've ever seen. Shockingly badly done. This makes Sharknado look like Citizen Kane. This is the kind of movie you get when people try to cash in as fast as possible on a hot property. The manga is genius. The anime ranks up there with the best. This movie for some reason decided to dump everything from those except the most basic related premise of giant humanoid monsters among us. As a fan of the anime and manga I was expecting much more of this. I have no problem when beloved source material is changed for movies as is so often the case, as long as the result is good. The level of bad here is the kind that seems the film makers had to actively work hard to achieve and in that sense it is an astounding accomplishment. It gets a 2 instead of a 1 from me because, hey, giant monsters ya know. This is one of those rare movies that no matter if you got a free copy, are so bored you can't think of anything else to do, or some other reason... don't watch this, you will regret it. You've been warned.
View MoreFans can make better versions of this story. Possibly the director preferred to show his "Personal" perspective of the film everything in this movie is a total crap, heck, crap is even more useful than this. This movie makes the last airbender look so nice and other live action adaptation of anime. Starting from the modern-post-apocalyptic design of the set to the script that was prepared for this movie. I think only the character of hange is the one i considered at least not an eye sore. Green screen, c'mon even youtubers can make use of the green screen better than how this production used it. The casting of the actors is really irritating, mikasa should give the vibe of a strong female character and eren is a strong willed person. How i hate the idea of how they are wearing the 3-D maneuver gear but not using it. In the manga that is a part of the training before they can even choose the department that they want to join. But they preferred to wait till mikasa and that other unnecessary person to show up and watch them kill titans using the gear and the swords. And by the way, i hate how they made mikasa hate eren then in a couple of minutes he cares about him again. Seriously, the whole production team should never make another movie involving adaptations again. And the director and the script writer should never enter the industry EVER
View MoreFirst off all I had to take a 5 minute breather before writing this interview so I would not swear. Warning spoilers ahead! So lets structure this up a bit. 1. So the story has been changed a lot from the Manga/Anime and I usually say that it can be okay to change a few things if it is needed but really why would they need to change all the big elements that build up the characters? Instead changing it into some love triangle/ They ate my love interest when I was young. On top of that in this remake several plot holes where left open. Not to start talking about the fact they changed the time period. 2. The acting was on a school play level really. Me and my drama class at the end of high school did a better job. 3. In terms of editing the whole thing I can not complain a lot it was decent enough some few errors but nothing to major. 4. Special effects. Really? I have seen youtube videos with better CGI then this. Now I am going to end this review before I start lose my right to write reviews due to cursing.
