A brilliant film that helped define a genre

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Initially I expected to hate Teen Titans stuff, when I finally got round to watching something it surprised me. It was darker than I thought it'd be and considerably funnier.Therefore going into Trouble In Tokyo I had high hopes but within the first quarter realised they were to be dashed.Make no mistake this has its moments, in fact some of gags are downright hilarious but they are far too few.It tells the story of our heroes venturing to Tokyo in search of a villian who sent a lackey to destroy their home. Once they arrive they become embroiled in a sinister plot.The whole thing looks and plays out like an anime, with those stupid over the top facial expressions that I detest and animated backgrounds during fight scenes. This doesn't work in it's favour, in fact it was detrimental.I wanted to like this but simply couldn't, besides a couple of chuckles this was a brainless purile animated effort and taking me back to my original fears regarding the Teen Titans.The Good:Some jokes are on pointGreat villianThe Bad:Why is Starfire so young?Some parts are beyond juvenileAnimation is plain goofy Plot is pretty lameThings I Learnt From This Movie:Beast Boy is Stan Marsh painted green

After a battle with a high-tech villain named, Saiko-Tek, the Teen Titans travel to the city of Tokyo where they find themselves embroiled in a conflict with an ancient enemy. Teen Titans: Trouble in Tokyo is a 2006 Animated Film based upon the famous TV show and i just finished it like almost 2 hours ago and i gotta say i loved it. It was pretty funny and hilarious as always especially watching Beast Boy singing the Teen Titans Theme Song was hysterical, Robin and Starfire got way too close and i think that was pretty cool, the story could have been a bit more interesting for sure plus we all knew who the real villain was from day one but even tho that the plot isn't as strong as the rest of the film DC Fans and cartoon fans in general will not be disappointed because the movie had a lot of great action packed moments mostly with Robin, a lot of laughs from Beast Boy and the animation and style was the exact same just like in the TV Series. (A+)

The Titans are back, and this time they're headed to Tokyo on the trail of a villain called Brushogun. *Beast Boy- VACATION WHOOO! Robin- WE'RE NOT ON VACATION! Heroes don't take vacations, you nOOb!* But after discovering that Brushogun turns out to be a myth it turns into a vacation anyway. Beast Boy runs off after a cute Japanese school girl, Cyborg goes to the All-You-Can-Eat buffet, Raven wanders off to find something to read, and Robin and Starfire go off and do stuff. Alls well until they're attacked by Brushogun's henchmen (each resembling a character from another show, like Kaonashi from Spirited Away and AstroBoy) and Robin ends up in jail! *gasp* Well that's what he gets for going overboard. Anyway, so now he's a fugitive and he has to steal this guy's clothes for a disguise (and might I add he looks VERY hot in this new getup :D) and off he goes to seek out information about Brushogun. After a very exciting motorcycle chase, a close shave with the Tokyo Troopers, and a romantic moment with Starfire, Robin meets up with his friends to track down Brushogun and take him out!I was overjoyed that this movie finally answered the number one question that I wanted it to: "Will Starfire and Robin ever get together?" The answer: WATCH THE MOVIE AND SEE! :) Apart from that, the music score was awesome and I loved the beginning credits when they're packing and when they're flying to Tokyo (Aqualad appears briefly! ^-^) Some fans may not appreciate it because of some of the weaker aspects, but if you overlook those you've got a great movie. I laughed through most of it, especially at the parts where the characters turn chibi :) Packed with action, adventure, humor, and romance all set in the beautiful and colorful city of Tokyo, Japan, this movie is almost certain to please any die-hard Teen Titans fan. 10/10 TEEN TITANS, GO!

**Warning: Contains some spoilers** The movie is.. well...perfect. The plot was great, the story was great, always funny and has a little romance.Well it starts with a guy driving a car who stops because some person is in the road. He shoves the car out of the way and continues running down the road. The Titans are on his trail. They stop him and of course he's says he must get back to Tokyo. This is where the Titans need to go to find out what attacked them.The movie begins. An Hour and a half later, Robin and Starfire are kissing and everything is great. I'm not going to reveal everything, but Cyborg eats... a lot. Beast Boy sings and is so-so, but Japanese girls love him and kiss kiss kiss. They love him. Robin goes to jail, Raven finds a book on Broshugon, and Starfire flirts with Robin.Yes, Robin and Starfire kiss. 3 attempts at it, but three times the charm. The first time, Robin says they are just hero's, and shouldn't be "This way". Starfire explains about kissing a Japanese boy, and she says why she kissed Robin in episode "Go". Then when Robin is saved by Starfire, they attempt it again, but the other titans interrupt. Again, Robin is attacked by the Ninja, and by the way, he's not a robot. Not even close. This ninja pulls out swords and cuts Robin and his mask. But we never get to see him without his mask in the movie :(.Anyway, he defeats him, and Robin's hands are covered in red. Japan thinks he's killed someone. Robin is put in jail, where they eventually drive him, and is attacked by the ninja's bomb. Robin says if there looking for him, then he'll have to be someone else. A guy trys to steal his money, so he takes that guy out and takes his outfit. Before we can see him without his mask, he puts on a pair of sunglasses. Cyborg is eating most of the movie.Broshogon isn't the main villain. That's all I'm going to say. They find him in the most obvious spot too.Anyway, Beast boy says he wants to go to Mexico, and Raven slaps him and the movie ends.Anyway, it was fun to watch, and since I'm a big fan, I'd have to give this movie a 10 out of 10. Teen Titans Go!
