hack manga, so I could call myself a fanboy of this series. I've seen all the animes and OVAs thus far and I read some. So in the end what we have is a great looking and sounding movie, which is awfully lacking in story. Also seeing The World in full 3D looked amazing. Probably the only point of the movie that I could call entertaining was the training montage where the main characters just killed monsters and there was awesome music playing on the background. The movie is no exception in this department. They always have some great character and enviroment designs, and absolutely fantastic musical score. I quess they're trying to ride on nostalgia with this one, but I think it's kinda cheap to just flat out copy&paste plotpoints and characters from the past.

There's also a school romance subplot, but I thought the romance part was kinda shallow and cliche. Someone gets stuck in the game and falls into a coma in real life, and the other characters have to help him. hack// story that's been used a million times by now.

When the story finally pics up, it is a tad uninspired and uninteresting. I seriously thought it was just a slice of life movie at first. Also there's not much conflict of any kind between any of the characters for like the first hour. hack// characters, or just flat out copies. Most of them are just a bit reskinned versions of classic. I have nothing against new characters, but they are not developed very well during the film. face in the form of Aura, who changes her age constantly for no apparent reason. hack//The Movie takes place after all the current movies, games and animes, and has a totally new cast of characters, but also a familiar hack// franchise, it really makes me sad.įor some reason this movie has thus far received some surprisingly positive feedback at least in MAL, so I'll try and explain why I didn't like it as thoroughly as I can. hack//Link are really supposed to be a swan song for the. It's just a pile of wasted potential, and if this combined with. I'm sorry for keeping this review short, but there's not just that much to be said about.
