Product Description

When a powerful new Internet Digimon hatches and begins to consume data at an alarming rate, the Digidestined - kids chosen to save the digital world - must put an end to the destruction before the damage becomes irreversible and worldwide communication halts forever. As computer-based missiles are launched, and a wayward Digimon kidnaps the Digidestined, only the combined efforts of a worldwide network of kids and a new group of "Digidestined" can rescue the others and stop global disaster.

Drier Than a Desert, But I Wouldn’t Have It Any Other Way
This film collection, even on the factor of one film alone, is everything the fans could have been hoping for. An overwhelming quantity of returning cast means you get to re-experience the film as intended but not without the voices you remember. The script is not here to win anyone BUT the fans over, but that is perfectly fine as the ORIGINAL edited version of the American release was included as well, so parents looking for a decent film for their kids to watch albeit probably with poor informing of the premise and characters will still be able to give them a more accessible version of the movies. And most important of all, the deliciously full widescreen expertly restored quality of the film is just impeccable. It’s impossible to really praise it sufficiently without seeing it for yourself, but the animation quality is stellar and it’s CGI has aged like a fine wine. For diehard fans of the franchise this is absolutely a must buy and delivered on all expectations. And with the original cut included, it makes for a perfectly fine option as well. Please buy this movie so we can get the rest recut and rereleased.

    An absolute and amazing love letter to the fans, both young and old, but especially those who were around during the Fox Kids release and sought out the Japanese films after.
    While it’s sad the passing of Greymon/Joe, Mimi/Cody, MetalGreymon, Angemon, Armadillomon, Gennai, and anyone else’s VAs I’m forgetting this exact moment, the matches they got them are really good and you can tell this re-dub was a labor of love by the people who worked on it, both previously and new to this project.

    11/10 if you’re any caliber of Digi-fan, you OWE it to yourself and the people who worked on this to get it.

    I remember 25 years ago watching the Dub version of these movies and I loved seeing the different animation designs but I felt things were held back, thankfully in this day and age we can see these three movies the way they were ment to be seen. And the best part with this release the majority of the American Dub cast returns for this project makes me feel like a little kid all over again I highly recommend getting this!

    Got this as a Valentine's Day present to myself, and got around to watching it tonight. It's the first three Digimon films, uncut, and re-dubbed with the entire surviving English cast.

    Also included, for those absolutely nostalgic, is the American cut from 2000 which mashed all three films together into one incoherent plot.

    Dialogue has been re-dubbed, but so much of the English writing from 2000 is unchanged, save for the mentions of Willis being removed from Our War Game, and not to mention Kari no longer narrating every freaking thing. Part of me wanted to be surprised, but to be perfectly fair, it was very, very solid writing, right up until the third film.

    It leads me to the same verdict that many other fans, and even Fox Kids dubbing director Jeff Nimoy had after preview screenings in 2000:

    The third film, Hurricane Touchdown, was absolutely the fatal weak point, and was included mainly due to Haim Saban's repeated insistence.

    Cutting the third film would have left us with a runtime barely over 61 minutes, but I really feel that would have been acceptable, because it really, truly derailed the American release 25 years ago. Even standalone, I recall Hurricane Touchdown was largely panned over in Japan as well.

    I would honestly change only one thing for this re-release; I would have included Udi Harpaz's Saban-commissioned musical score; it was truly a treat for the ears, and this may be nostalgia talking, but it's better than what was in original sub.

    I remembered watching Digimon: The Movie in the movie theaters. I wasn't aware that they took scenes from the 3 original Japanese films and put it together in one. The Blu-ray version provided me with the options of watching those 3 films in their uncut format, with the original English cast members doing the dubs. I'm glad that I bought it!

    Brought me back to my childhood. Warm and friendly. At one point 10 years ago I had some mid-quality ports on a hard drive from a Bittorrent because these are so insanely expensive and difficult to find in the USA. If that last sentence irks you, it probably should, because my ISP almost fined me for the habit.

    That being said, I've watched all the original Japanese cuts, yet to watch the remastered Digimon Movie and New English Dub.

    Thoughts on Japanese cuts: I only discerned a slight loss/clipping in audio in "01 Digimon Adventure" at the beginning when the Bolero is playing, although I am not sure if that is from the source or some thing after the source (like encryption/encoding/writing etc).

    That being said I love this movie and all of them. They are so cute and charming and friendly.

    The audio is crisp and clean and Hosoda Mamoru has an incredible style, stuck with a lot of 90's kids.

    Hurricane Touchdown's title is confusing, as it appears to be composed of two parts: the second being called "Golden Digimentals!!". Outside the USA, intermissions half-way into a movie are common, and so the before-mentioned name is this specific second part. Thus the single movie itself has one name composed of two sub-names. ;)

    I highly recommend this. Thank you so much for this!!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Love Digimon
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 23, 2011

    I'll admit, when it originally came to cinemas, I didn't go to see it because I was a Pokémon fan, but I grew into Digimon. I do love the film and the humour of it, but then again, I am a big child and still have the same interests I had when I was younger. I can't fault the film, although it would've been nice to have scenes cut out from the English dub as well as Japanese dubbing and subtitles. If you watch the Japanese AND the English, you'll realise they're very different films due to what's been cut out and what the Japanese actually say. I'd of liked to have had both just to see the comparison, but I can see why it wasn't included. The Japanese version is much darker (Tai and Kari's dad is an alcoholic that comes home drunk late at night?). Over all, I do love this film, and so does my friend, hence why I bought two copies!

    Watching the dubbed japanese movies I realise how empty they feel without the english music or themes from the shows. Despite my disappointment with that, this has the highest quality of the original american film, much better than an old vhs rip. The bloopers reel was a lot of fun. Overall, I am quite happy with this release!

    I bought this for my husband as he never got to watch it when he was a child. Let's just say that he was a very happy man child the day that it arrived and he thoroughly enjoyed watching the movie even with the terrible Angela anaconda opening. All in all a great purchase. Was sold as used good condition and I think that it was excellent it just had a few fingerprint smudges on the disk.
