First of all, the storyline in "Devilman", as written by Machiko Nasu, just wasn't all that entertaining or impressive. So as I had the chance to sit down and watch the 2004 movie for a second time here in 2021, I did so.Īnd it sort of was a waste of time.
But truth be told, I couldn't remember a single thing from the movie. I saw the first Manga back in the day, and I happened to get a chance to watch the 2004 live action movie "Devilman" back in around 2004 or 2005. Reviewed by paul_haakonsen 3 / 10 Somewhat of a cluttered mess.
All in all a curious little film with too little substance-I certainly wasn't bored watching it once though. It seems they tried to fit too much in as well, many of the most important story lines in the manga are thrust together and too many are explored in too little depth, I wished they'd focused on just one or two and got it right. I wished they had explored Ryo and Akira's relationship a bit more and built up their characters more strongly before they become enemies. If you're not familiar with Devilman's manga incarnation you may not understand the motivations of some of the characters or what the hell the deal with the ending is but it's all interesting enough to keep you watching.There's some pretty bad acting too but If you like fantasy and monsters scrapping there's bound to be some fun to be had here. Okay, so the CG might not be great but the Devilman, Silene and Satan designs look incredibly cool. Was it worth the wait? hardcore devilman fans will be disappointed but it is definitely an entertaining film throughout. *SPOILER ALERT!* Devilman is without a doubt one of my favourite anime and Manga series of all time so when I learned they were making a movie I was more than a little excited.
