Such a frustrating disappointment

Good concept, poorly executed.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Well there is a bad comment of 1 star,I think I should add something. First,I have seen the TV series, so I am familiar with the plot, glad to see that about 25% percent have been changed according to the original version, which, is acceptable to me. Second, the story of Choppa might be the favorite part of OP, I watched the TV, I cried, I watched this movie, I cried, I watch this movie again after some time with my friend, I cried again!The plot is just beautiful, other issue doesn't matter anymore. Third, a little advice: learn some Japanese, trust me, it makes great difference whether you are watch the subtitle or listen to what the character are saying, you just can't get into the plot without understanding the language,the characters' true emotion can't be well received without voice. As I said, I don't know if anyone who's not a fan will like this movie or not, if you have time, might just try it.

I don't know why they make this movie.There's no twist to the original plot, no new jokes to make you laugh (far less, mind you), and no new moves the characters will make.Oh, there's differences between the movie and the TV episodes, though. Nico Robin and Frankie have already joined the crew (as you could tell from the poster), and their ship is (of course) the Thousand Sunshine. Since princess Vivi Ayame has already returned to Alabaster, part of her dialogs and act is taken over by Nico Robin, which is a pity, because Nico and Vivi are definitely different kind of persons. It's very weird to see Nico doing all those things.And their appearances looked strange, either. Especially for Nami, I couldn't even recognize her in the poster.The whole movie was in a hurry, so they don't even have time to make Wapol the ultimate bad guy! No, please. Don't waste your time on this one.
