Bayonetta [Blu-ray]

BEST MOVIE EVER

As a Bayonetta fan, it did everything I wanted it to do and I really have no complaints!+ Animation and artwork is impressive and beautiful+ Awesome music from the video games+ Original VAs from the video games+ Dual-audio+ English subbed and dubbed+ Loaded with fan-service, and those signature "Bayo" moments (If you know what I mean lol)+ Never gets dull or slow, lots of action- Loved it, but I wish it was a series instead of just a movie, because now I'm left wanting moreI've seen a lot of complaints and I'm not sure what else it could have done to be better or what else anyone was expecting *shrugs*As an anime movie: 7-8/10As an adaptation of the video game to anime: 10/10

First off i got to say that i love how they gave the yellow strings of Bayonetta's outfit and her earrings an extra gloss to make them stand out more on the shell that covers this Blu-ray DVD combo. The full piece of art that covers the inside of the DVD is pretty nice too. The film itself is also very good and is filled to the brim with action and fanservice moments. The only thing that i didn't really like about this movie was the fact that the angels all of a sudden speak English instead of their usual Angelic language. No idea why they choose that but at least the voices that they used for the Angels aint that bad so i'll overlook it. This movie also has a total of 24 minutes of extra footage being actor commentary, storyboards, and the 2 trailers of this movie that were uploaded to Youtube by Funimation. All in all a great movie for any Bayonetta fan out there looking to see the story of the first Bayonetta game in a nutshell and in anime form.

If you play the games, this gives more understanding to what is happening.

If you are a hardcore fan of Bayonetta, this movie was made just for you in mind. The art design and sound quality of this movie are on point from the video game adaptation. Since this movie is produced by Funimation, one can recognize that a large amount of money and time has been poured into this production to produce the beautiful scenes, combat, and character designs. Bayonetta: Bloody Fate is visually impressive and defies the norms of art quality for anime movies. Aside from the gorgeous appearance, it provides additional background information about several characters that was not explained in the video games, accommodating insight as to why some of the characters act the way they do. In addition to providing additional clarification to the game's story arc, the film is downright entertaining, especially throughout the combat scenes.Even if you do not consider yourself a Bayonetta fan but enjoy anime, this movie is well worth the watch.

I absolutely LOVE this movie, it's one of the very few Video Games -> Movies that are a lot of fun. The commentary track that can be played along the movie is a lot of fun with the lead english VA director as well as the voice of bayonetta herself. I find myself watching this a few times a year since the movie is so fun.It is very similar to the plot of the first game, however there are no 'cheap' moments where they steal cutscenes from the game or other gimmicks to lower the production value. It's truly a movie for the fanbase, and I hope they continue to make more as the series matures.Most of the voices are the original VAs from the original game as well. Everything just feels right despite being made several years after the original game.

I've been a huge fan of Bayonetta since the original came out in 2009. I had been waiting for an English release of this movie - I bought this to hold me over until the release of Bayonetta 2, as the hype machine was working its magic in overdrive! My experience with this movie was just acceptable overall, and throughout the film I found myself wishing I were playing the game instead. There's a lot this movie got right, and a lot that seemed to be missing from this movie.Pros:+Most of the original voice cast is back, so only Balder and little Cereza sound a bit off.+Some of the original music was used in the movie. This includes great tracks such as One of a Kind and Mysterious Destiny (yay!).+Cool animation style and beautiful backgrounds. Decent animation quality.+Helped to clarify a little of the original storyline, for those who missed the major plot points in the game.+Didn't follow the game by the book, which made the plot a little bit easier for newcomers to understand, and mixed things up for those already familiar with the game.+Cereza is still super adorableCons:-Not nearly as over-the-top as the game. The game was full of amazing, epic scenarios, and most of the encounters in the movie were relatively muted and anticlimactic.-The voice acting sounds worse than in the game. It just feels more mechanical and forced overall. In addition not everyone from the game was brought back for the movie (Enzo, Cereza), and although Balder is played by the original voice actor, he sounds like a very different person to me.-On the topic of voice acting, why do the angels speak English? It sounds so very weird for Beloved, Fortitudo, etc to all be speaking English. It makes them infinitely less intimidating to me.-Strange audio quirks. A lot of scenes that should be climactic have boring, calm music in the background. The music in the film is worse than in the game; I was super excited when I heard music in it from the game, but the new original pieces just don't come close to having the same amount of energy.-It's missing a lot of the ridiculous humor from the game, including the silly reactions from the angels when they're getting wrecked. Bayonetta barely even teases them at all in this game. I guess you could say that while the game basks in its own ridiculousness, this movie takes itself a little too seriously.Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge fan of Bayonetta and I liked the movie. I just want to make sure everyone gets both sides of the story!If you're a big fan of Bayonetta, you'll probably still enjoy this movie. If you didn't play the game and want a summary of what happened, this film covers the major plot points, with a few differences. There are many areas that could use some improvement, but if you love Bayonetta as much as I do, this is still a pretty fun movie to keep you occupied!

My product came in great condition, and there was nothing wrong with it. And I'm excited to see this movie on my PlayStation 4.
