Metalocalypse: Army of the Doomstar

Judging by the other reviews, it seems like fans really just wanted more Metalocalypse. That's great, but after binging the series, I really did want to know what it was all about. The production value here was miles above any in the series. At first ir seemed odd to have less metal in Metalocalypse, but the music was honestly amazing. It truly felt epic, which is how a finale should feel. And the art? Oh my God, the art. Those backgrounds were absolutely beautiful, and I'm a sucker for a beautiful, bloody apocalypse - reminds me of my dreams. People have noted the comedy was lackluster, which may be true, as I don't really remember much about the jokes, but the rest of it left a mark ans I found the whole thing a lot of fun.

This was a ok finale but I prefer the last movie over this one. This movie didn't have great songs and didn't give its story to us in a great way. The jokes were pretty lame as well. When I heard this wasn't going to be a full musical like the last movie I was hoping that they would have brought back some of the great humor but found it pretty lacking. The scene in the church was probably the best comedy bit but there was a bit too much seriousness in most scenes. The fact Nathan never even got to say his tagline 'Brutal' was pretty disappointing in the least because there was Just sooo many times just that one word could have been uttered and it probably would have got a laugh out of me but no. They needed to keep everything semi-serious just not there comedy which they kept pretty basic... although there was a 'Plug' joke that got me.

The story on the other hand was alright, I liked how all the characters were used and the cameos. The entire series wasn't really strong in this category, in fact it was pretty much a major joke until it wasn't. That said the revenge story of the last movie was much better, but taking this story as serious as they did may have been a mistake. Oh well, at least 'The Fans' got what they wanted hopefully, it was a love letter to those that kept the show alive after all as its pretty apparent they read their fan-sites.

It is a mark set to inflate the entirety of the journey the introduced representative depth of character is a leap forward towards distinctive future of the entire series.

Character development, psychological realism perpetuating the notion of dramatic progression into the unknown.

Truly desired by the fans and the perceptive crowd.

One of the standout aspects of Army of the Doomstar is its stunning animation. The visuals are beautifully crafted, with intricate details in each character and their surroundings. The dark and gritty atmosphere perfectly complements the heavy metal theme and adds an extra layer of immersion to the viewing experience.

Well, where to start...

After the original Metalocalypse show ended and after The Doomstar Reqiuem, this was supposed to be a grand finale that would conclude the excellent series we know as Metalocalypse.

Unfortunately, this movie is not even a shadow of the former show, this is just another failure.

The characters here are now whiny shadows of what they once were. The show deserved a proper ending, but this movie is a disaster.

It just goes to show that the entertainment industry has almost nothing to do with entertainment anymore.

Dethklok was perfect as it is, fun and brutal, but that's clearly not desirable in the movie industry anymore.

Dethklok is now a group of pathetic whining losers, especially Nathan Explosion, who is now constantly whining and saying how hard it is for him. Total destruction of fun characters.

The music is good, the voice acting is solid, but that's how it should be.

What is catastrophically bad is the script, as if we are not watching Metalocalypse, but something completely different. And that's not what we wanted to see.

A complete waste of time.

Ten years after the phenomenal "The Doomstar Requiem" comes the sequel "Army of the Doomstar", this time as a feature-length animated film. All the technical aspects of the series we loved are here again, everything is apparently the same as it was, except for the most important - humor. Not that this isn't hilariously funny, but it's not even mildly entertaining. One big nothing dragged out for almost an hour and a half, with characters rendered pathetic, rare and failed attempts at humor, and without a single catchy track. Not only is there nothing memorable, but it is so boring that I did not manage to watch it all at once. Shame.

5/10.
