Like Hollywood, Japan has its fair share of films adapted from the manga / graphic novel medium, and the first Gantz film showed what I had missed out.
Sure, it was watchable, but it was a horrible scrambled mess of a movie.
#Gantz english dub episode 15 movie
The movie really failed to impress and entertain me properly in most aspects. All in all, then I am rating "Gantz: Perfect Answer" a mediocre five out of ten stars. I wanted to watch action and fighting in the movie, not a TV soap opera drama. However, the drama aspects to the storyline had a tendency of overshadowing the action aspects, which I found to be a shame. Lots of good action sequences throughout the course of the movie. As for the action in "Gantz: Perfect Answer", well, I will say that it was nicely executed. They were essentially, just portraying the same character when you think about it.
The acting was good, though, and they did have a good ensemble of actors and actresses, just a real shame that they were given flaccid characters without any proper meat on their bones, so to speak. There were so many unanswered questions to the storyline. The storyline was all over the place with multiple sub-scripts, none of which came to a proper fruition and completion as the movie drew to an end. It seemed more like an impromptu script made up as director Shinsuke Sato went along. And the storyline wasn't particularly well-thought through. And believe you me, there were many characters! This shallow character gallery was an anchor around the movie. What was wrong with "Gantz: Perfect Answer"? Well, first of all the character gallery was a scrambled mess that gave the audience surprisingly little insight in whom all the characters were.
However, "Gantz: Perfect Answer", from 2011, was just not as enjoyable as the 2016 "Gantz 0" movie. So when I was given the chance to sit down and watch "Gantz: Perfect Answer" (aka "Gantz 2"), of course I jumped at the chance. Granted, I have only seen the "Gantz 0" movie, which was overly enjoyable.
