Kuiba III

So there is now a third Kuiba movie up on YouTube, and to be honest, I think it is a touch worse than the previous movie Kuiba II. There are more confrontations and fight scenes, plus quite interesting tension playing with the notion of friend/enemy, and although occasionally it is a visually very interesting movie, it is all rather disappointing. The narrative is once again very long-winded, and there are scenes and storylines that strike me as just outlandish rather than interesting. I also did not like the CGI animation because although sometimes it looked quite good (the scenes about the journey through the depths of the sea), at other times it was quite awful, especially the way the characters moved, and the CGI characters look incongruous against the hand-drawn background. The pulse beasts in this movie almost made me feel like I was watching Mighty Morphin Power Rangers and their Dinozords... If it keeps going like this, I might loose my interest in the whole Kuiba universe with the next movie... This one was just a bit better than average. 5.5/10. (29/07/2020)
