    Sinfully Awful!

    I came across Sin: The Movie in the Anime section of my local Cex store. I had never heard of, or even came across this movie before and I own a particularly large Anime collection. The back of the box looked entertaining enough with plenty of action shots printed on the back of the box so I thought to myself this should at least be worth a couple of laughs and for just fifty pence what can it hurt to give it a watch.

    I wasn't expecting anything spectacular from this movie but it failed to impress even my lowest expectations. The storyline is so basic and uninteresting that if the movie's exposition scenes were cut you'd still get the same quality of movie just with a much shorter running time.

    Sin just doesn't feel like a real movie it's more like a feature length pilot episode for a violent anime series about human/creature hybrids that never went anywhere.

    I don't recommend watching this movie it isn't very good or entertaining it's one of those Anime movies that you buy watch once and because it's worth nothing it just sits on your shelf gathering dust until you have a clear out and put it in the bin.

    Wow,

    Wow, what can I not say about this film? Sure, it's got the typical cliched Anime story-line and art, but it still seems fresh and original. For being a 60 minute film it sure had a lot of plot twists and a excellent, well-crafted, storyline with interesting unique characters. Plus it had more than enough blood, gore, & t&a. But I'm not one to complain. All in all it was a great flick and I highly recommend it to all anime fans out there!

    fast past action.

    First i will try to make a comment as honestly as possible..and to correct other comments that are personal and not realistic,

    SIN THE MOVIE is not that bad ,it was actually entertaining and the main character is captivating .

    The animation is OK,the drawing is OK ....but the action ,the situations and the locations are where the movie was captivating and fun.

    The monsters are cool ,the transformation of genetics into monsters makes me think of when i used to watch Japanese anime in the 90's.

    The story is very simple for a change, since Japanese anime movies usually are complicated and long...this one is short easy to follow and full of action .

    conclusion : this movie is simple animation with a lot of action and violence,i give it a 6/10

    Doesn't leave you time to think

    Summary: good guy tries to stop evil scientist's mutants. The main feature of Sin was gore and violence. There was a clear plot to the film but constant killing and destruction forces that to the back of your mind, making you focus in the visual aspects. After watching you wish I wish I had known more about most of the characters backgrounds (especially the little girl who everyone wanted to capture). If only ADV extended it for 30 minutes to provide the information, to give the characters more personality instead of portraying them as either cruel, innocent, strong and/or rebelious, this movie would have much more appeal. I give it a 6.

    Hilarious!

    Okay, this is a rather bad movie. I'm sorry, it just is. However, it's hilarious in that way! Anyways, on with the plot/summary. The big action hero "John Blade" is a cop, and he's one of those "mean" cops but does it to be nice (you know). And then there's the evil corporation, SiNtech. Which, apparently no one thinks they are evil... Even though they are called SIN and they operate out of a GIANT EVIL looking black TOWER. So it turns out SiN is making crazy monsters to take over the world, and of course Blade is the only one who can stop them. Also, all the other cops are apparently on SiNtechs side, so there. ANYWAYS, this movie is worth watching for the lines "cut him off!" (sounds hilarious) and my all time favorite dialog exchange that goes something like this... "Your hand's cold... Why is it like that" "Well you know what they say." What do they say? They don't tell you, the next line does not allude to it at all. I personally know of no such phrase... Any help is appreciated. One last little observation, all the cars/planes/what-have-you belonging to the cops are all marked 66. Probably making it hard for them to contact each other...

    I personally have not played much of the game this is "based" on, but I'm sure it is not as bad as this was. Good for a laugh if you have a few friends and are REALLY tired (seriously). This movie is just over-the-top, but in a ludicrous way, things happen that don't make sense, and not in the "smart" or "scary" or "cool" way, in the "what the f... HAHAHA!" way.
