Dragon Quest: Your Story

I was a little confused at the choice of straying away from the Akira Toriyama art style, but I have to say that the style of the film has grown on me. The film combines a number of characters from the games and includes just enough reinterpretation of the source material to keep longtime fans guessing at what's coming next.

Found this on netflix after me and my kid (6) have been playing dragon quest builders 2 for a few weeks. It was cool to hear the same music and reactions in the movie as in the game. We both really enjoyed this movie. I thought the animation was really high quality even though some reviewers said it was bad. I'm not sure about the ending and the message it sends (same in the game) but it didn't stop us from wanting to watch it again!

The ending destroys it. It was unnecessary.

Character building was nonexistent.

As someone who played Dragon Quest V, long ago the story beats and characters are there. After the fact, I really appreciated the efforts that provided the excitement and with the context of your story.

All the bits and pieces of what makes Dragon Quest is present, and if you have played the game I'm sure it'll recall the moments and emotion that'll yearn for the world you know and love. Which is the point.

This isn't going to change your experience with your adventure, only reignite it.

I unintentionally watched the film, thought the CG seems pretty nice from the trailer.. and that's the best decision I've made this year!!

The film was really great!! Visually stunning CGi, really nice soundtrack, and to tell you the truth.. the plot twist at the end made me shed my tear!! You could feel how much love was given by these creators.. they really do admire the DQ series..

There's only few problem with the screenplay, but it's understandable.. like FFVII, old game like these couldn't be retold within an hour and a half.. They've already trued their best in adapting and keep up with the best possible.. I truly enjoy the film :))
