Beyblade the Movie: Fierce Battle! Takao VS Daichi

I admit to knowing little about the "Beyblade" franchise apart from that it's not really that popular...which is probably why I know little about it. From what I see, the series is about people who fight using tops. I thought it would be a Mon show. Well, magical creatures do in fact appear in this movie eventually. I can't tell if it's faithful to the anime or if fans would like it. I just found it pointless.

Everything is just so cliché and it's all been done before and much better. There's a few token girls, the main character is a big eater, he gets a rival, etc. The side characters were especially forgettable. An ancient evil being awakened has been done a lot of times before too. I've never watched the anime, so I guess I can't judge it that well. I would still take 'Yu-Gi-Oh" over this, the anime not the movie, that was even worse than this. *1/2

Beyblade: The Movie - Fierce Battle

Genre: Animation/Action/Adventure

This movie is great for any fan of anime and or the cartoon series, Beyblade! Tyson and Daichi face-off in a winner takes all bey-battle and when Tyson won, Daichi just won't keep excepting the defeat and keeps stocking Tyson until he has a rematch against Tyson. Tyson, Kenny, Hilary, Max, Ray and Kai go on a vacation after the World Beyblade Championships but soon their vacation makes a turn for the worst when they encounter mysterious beybladers who claim to be the Dark Spirits sealed inside a temple in Demon Rock Island. The Shadow Bladers seek to destroy the world with Daichi under their control and the power of Strata-Dragoon (Daichi's beyblade)! Can Tyson and Dragoon save Daichi and Strata-Dragoon from being under control of the Shadow Bladers? Will the Bladebreakers save the world in the most important bey-battle of their lives? Find out in this cool Beyblade movie! But I wonder why in America, this movie wasn't released into theaters because I thought personally it looked good enough to be in theaters. Another cool thing about this movie is that when the bitbeasts come out of their beyblades, the bitbeasts are computer animated when in the cartoon series the bitbeasts are not usually CGI-ed but still it's cool they CGI-ed them for the movie! This Beyblade movie takes place after V-Force (Season 2) and before G-Revolution (Season 3). Let It Rip!

I must admit having seen the overall rating for this movie & after reading 1 of the user comments I was expecting a horrible movie! I am very glad to say that Beyblade FB was exactly the opposite! It was Great. I haven't seen the series or the other movie yet so this was completely new for us. I have a 7 year old son who, of course, loves Pokemon, Bakugan etc... So naturally BB FB appealed to him! We sat down together and we Both enjoyed this movie very much. The animation, plot and voice acting were all equal to or above what I have come to expect from an animated family movie based on those we have seen in the past! Beyblade is an excellent movie that Most kids in the 6-12 year old range (And above) who enjoy animated action series should check out!

I would like to add one parting request. Fellow movie raters Please keep in mind that our reviews impact other viewers and their decisions! The negative review I read seemed to lose perspective of the target audience and gave BB FB an Unfavorably low rating. This movie has no foul language, no excessive violence Nothing a parent would worry about their child viewing! That is another reason I give this movie so much credit. I am personally grateful for the producers that give our youth an acceptable experience that they can really get into!

I must say, this is one of the neatest anime movies around. i was slightly disappointed that the story was in the year of G Rev, but their outfits were from V-Force. but that's okay. i was just slightly puzzled. anywho, the plot line was great and the final battle was awesome! i own it and would never give it up. it truly is a must-have for all beyblade fans. and their facial expressions.....i could watch the movie over and over because of how funny their expressions are! they're hilarious! i was also slightly disappointed that kai wasn't shown more in it. i'm a HUGE fan of kai, and that kinda made me a little unhappy. however, i'm glad that he got the spotlight for a little while. I also like how well they did with matching up the voice to the mouth movements. unlike many other anime movies, the voice comes out a bit before or after the mouth actually opens. and when that happens, well, then it just doesn't make any sense and i get all confused. but truly, i loved this movie and wish it would be given more credit. beybladers around the world.....GET THIS MOVIE! until then....LET IT RIP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Japanese characters using spinning tops to find out who is tougher. Are they serious? I mean, granted the Pokémon show and Yu-Gi-Oh! shows weren't very well thought out, but at least they made enough sense to kids to last for several years. But this is plain asinine.

There is little plot to entertain the viewer. The 'monsters' are trapped in the spinning tops and are freed somehow. Those creatures then possess some kids and act like hyenas in the way they laugh. They then try to track down another kid and top. Afterwords, the world somehow comes to near destruction from the top creatures in a Beyblade battle. Boring stuff follows.

There is just no way anybody should watch this. The creators should be ashamed and the voicing is just awful. Where did they come up with these cheesy lines and dry acting? I just wish nobody was harmed in creating this travesty of a Japanese show. "F"
