Excellent, Without a doubt!!

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

I will start out by saying that I am a die-hard one piece fan. I love the anime and manga but this movie was an absolute disgrace to one piece, let me explain. The movie I started out interested in knowing nothing about it at first. As the first few minutes past I noticed the horrific artwork and animation that made me want to puke. It was as if one was poking my eyes with their fingers each second. Even with this awful start I gave it another chance hoping it would get better, it didn't. The boring plot mixed with the confusing transition from scene to scene made it very tough to watch. Even still I continued and met with a very dark final part of the film which threw my emotions into chaos. After the credits I found myself regretting ever watching this film, which is surprising since I loved all the other one piece films. Conclusion: don't even consider watching this crappy film, it's not worth your time.

First thing I feel I have to say is that this movie gets real dark real fast.. It starts off as a usual One Piece movie, they are laughing, having a good time and stuff like that, but... About 50 minutes into the movie everything changes and it becomes dark and creepy, scary even. I didn't expect that to happen, and to be honest it scared the hell out of me. I absolutely love it, I have always been a fan of dark creepy things and this was perfect. my brother said it looked like something straight out of a creepy-pasta. I highly suggest watching this one even if you don't like the unusual animation, and if your a fan of creepy stuff like me then I can almost guarantee you'll Love it.

I hunted down this movie because it was the first feature-length film helmed entirely by Mamoru Hosoda, who went on to do Summer Wars and Wolf Children. I have not seen any of the other One Piece movies, although I did watch the first couple of seasons of the series before (loved it at first, but the formula gets old). It's a cute, nutty movie with a theme of friendship and the usual One Piece over-the-top craziness. There are definitely Hosoda touches in the design, which looks just a little different from that of the series, but it is still very much along the lines of what I've seen before. It's not a movie that would make you expect the director would go on to brilliance, but it's not a movie that makes you think that would never happen, either.

The StrawHat Pirates were invited to a Resort Island, owned by Baron Omatsuri. It was a great opportunity for everyone to take a brake from traveling the Grand Line. After a big welcoming from the locals. Our heroes found out that in order to have their relaxation on this island. They must pass a few contests offered by the locals. The whole island has a mystery to it. As Luffy encounters a mysterious man, Chopper encounters a family, & Robin who noticed that there aren't an flowers populated on the island.This movie's theme separates itself from the other One Piece titles. As the story to it is more grim like. And the animation gives the characters a new style. There are a lot of good scenes in this flick. Including violence, comedy, and suspense. Most of the characters in this movie a unusual. It may not look too much like the TV series. But it's still One Piece.
