Perfect cast and a good story

For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

Teen Titans: Trouble in Tokyo takes the Teen Titans into their first movie, with a new and challenging villain, and based in the world famous Japanese city of Tokyo, this movie is a very well designed movie for Teen Titans. Although since the shows final episode left us on a cliffhanger, this movie does not resolve the plot in the TV show that it should have. The movie is also designed to be a finale for the show, taking on-going plots from the show and resolving them (Robin & Starfire), but not finishing the cliffhanger many fans would have wanted it to. Despite the movie being a follow-up of the show, the movie in general has a good story to it. After Slade, Brotherblood, Trigon, and The Brain, the Teen Titans are opposing a new and equally evil villain in this movie. I also think the Teen Titans fit into Tokyo very well, with the shows anime-ish style/animation. I give this movie 7.5/10

Thank goodness this exists, because if not, the finale of this show would be the insult that is "Things Change". It might not be a perfect finale like "Lost Heroes: Part Two", but it has enough charm, humor, and action to hold it's own. I'll cover this more when I review the series as a whole, but you can really tell how the Titans have grown. They all have their place in the group, and they're key components to it. The plot's pretty simple, it's not challenging like "Haunted", but it's kind of for the best that they played it safe. Playing it safe kept them from making too many mistakes, and also allowed them to have more fun.

Teen Titans: Trouble in TokyoSuper-heroes travelling to Japan need to be aware that speed lines will accompany all of their movements.Mind you, the super-team trekking to Tokyo in this animated adventure is familiar with Manga motifs.When a ninja attacks their base at the behest of Japanese super-villain: Brushogun, The Teen Titans – Robin, Raven, Cyborg, Star-fire and Beast Boy – head to Tokyo to retaliate.When they arrive, Commander Daizo of the Tokyo Troopers explains Brushogun does not exist.Opting to sightsee instead, the team separates. But when Robin is accused of murder, the team must locate the real Brushogun if they hope to clear their leader's name.Based on the DC Comics television show, Trouble in Tokyo is a standalone feature film that maintains the lively pace and puerile comedy of the cartoon while paying homage to the culture that inspired its aesthetic.Incidentally, Japan's worst super-villain is still Used Women's Underwear Man.Green Lightvidiotreviews.blogspot.ca

I am a big fan of Teen Titans as a series, and I generally love the DC animated movies. So really it was a perfect combination. Apart from the ending being the predictable side, Teen Titans: Trouble in Tokyo is great. The animation is full of colour, a good mix of atmospheric and vibrant, and fluidity, and the music is lively, always memorable and sometimes haunting. The writing is snappy, funny and smart, with some intelligent intensity also when needed, and the story is peppered with amusing moments like Beastboy singing karaoke and exciting action sequences as well as a sense of conflict. The main characters are likable, and the villain is a very convincing antagonist. The voice work is strong and done with gusto. In conclusion, a great movie, just as good as the series and perfect to go with it too. 9/10 Bethany Cox
