Mjeteconer Just perfect...

Lightdeossk Captivating movie !

Derry Herrera Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Marcus James Its not a bad anime. There is action, some drama, and an OK plot but lets face, it is insanely generic and cliché. The good news is that the plot is good enough to keep you watching. For folks who like action anime and justice/revenge plots there is enough here to make you want to see how it ends. The characters, as generic as they are, are likable enough to want to see how their story ends. But that is really it. Here is the bad...The use of amnesia is too convenient and plain silly. The struggle between main characters has been done to death and back in shows like Gundam Seed, and Scryed not to mention movies and books. Their struggle here is definitely forced and the situations that pit them against each other is extremely weak. The politics is just laughable. I mean... bad leaders are common but the problem here is that the leaders are doorknobs. Its unrealistic that they maintained power long enough to have an empire. There is a reason why our dumb leaders today cannot accomplish anything meaningful... by definition of being dumb, they are unable to succeed for very long. Then you have blind faith characters, forced tragedies that are more unlikely than winning the lotto, ridiculous romance side plots, bad guys who are insane from power, etc etc.Overall, its above average but I it could have been better. I have a feeling that the author will likely get better over time so I look forward to seeing more work from them as they mature.

Abdullah Emre Aksun Unless you've been under a rock for the last few years, you've at the very least heard of the awesome anime that is Code Geass. A direct sequel to Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion, Code Geass R2 picks up approximately a year after the events of the first season. Geass R2 is an amazing show. It's VERY well done, but it's not perfect. Some flaws do stick out, and at times, some parts of it DO feel rushed, but at the end of the day, Code Geass R2 stands in the hall of fame as one of the best anime to date, right behind it's exceptional first season. I give Code Geass R2 a 10 . And I want to say that ------>All Hail Lelouch :D All Hail Me :D

Catwings "Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebelion" is an animated TV series with two parts: 25 episodes of R1 (which were televised in October, 2006), and another 25 episodes of R2 (which were televised in April, 2008) as the continuation of the story of R1. Since it's a blockbuster story where R1 combines with R2, you cannot understand the whole picture deeply enough behind the story unless you watch all the episodes from the beginning to the end. Frankly speaking, there are various drawbacks for the audience that make it difficult to get into the story and make it uninteresting. There is an undeniable sense that the feeling of depth of the story can be amplified by putting these flaws in the back of your mind and watching til the end. As a Japanese person and an anime fan, the following factors may distract you.Japan, with valuable underground resources, has war proclaimed on it by other countries looking for those resources, and Japan is defeated in the process. - Britannia, the opponent to Japan, sounds like an encyclopedia. - Despite the serious story, the country names used in the story are funny somehow such as; the United Federation of Nations, or the United States. - The characters including the protagonist are unrealistically beautifully, good -looking with big breasts. - It cannot be envisaged it as anything else but a Pizza Hut (home delivery pizza) and Biglobe (an Internet provider in Japan) sponsored production; overpromotion in the story. - The opening and ending songs change frequently, along with the hyper-commercial tie-up can come and go. So some of the songs are mis-chosen. - Too much fanservice of the female battle scenes, etc.It is hard to get into the story by these conspiratorial subliminals that the producer elaborately tries to implicate into the story, so it may be difficult to enjoy the story purely. For example, imagine if all every country could wage war on China because it had rare metals? Because of this, and in order to find it more interesting, I watched R1 in the original version, and R2 with the English dub. However, it took long time to finish the episodes.The story is about a fictional world, that is similar to our own world, but Japan has been conquered by the Holly Britannia, which controls about 1/3 of all over the world, Japan is defeated, and renamed as "Area 11". Japanese people are derogated as "Elevens", whilst being deprived of their freedom, and they are completely controlled by Britannia. Lelouch and Suzaku Kururugi, who are childhood friends, decide to go their separate paths after the devastating defeat of Japan. Lelouch gains the power of force absolute compliance, called "Geass" by C.C., an immortal girl, and he seeks his justice, using the power of his Geass as an masked anti-hero, whilst Suzaku joins the Britannian army in order to infiltrate the system from the inside. It invokes a world war involving with other union armies. It's all done for Lelouch's sister, Nunnally, and for world peace. There are various kinds of Geass in the story; the power to read others' mind, the power to read just a few seconds of the future, the power to stop time etc.Lelouch is a genius, also a top-drawer chess player, and knows a move or two. Being such a perfectionist, he can manipulate his Geass and tries to change the world as he sees fit. Thus, it may be dull to see such a perfect figure in the first half of the R1 story. It may seen boring until after the first 10 episodes or so. The first turning point is the ending of the episode 14 of R1. It is the scene where the perfectionist, Lelouch uses his Geass for his own emotional affair for the first time. And, there's also the tragedy of episode 13 of R2.... I somewhat like Shirley story and Rolo's stories. And more than anything, the last of R2. Even though I keep throwing dirt at the story, I got into the story around the middle of R2. The last episode reverses everything. Everything wisely reads ahead just like the moves of chess. Cool!

oranui56 I was't much of a fan of Code Geass R1, I never even watched the whole thing because I thought it was a passable show at best. So I skipped to this one to see if things got more exiting. But this sequel is absolutely bad. I watched about 4 episodes and it got worse and worse as it went on. There is a ridiculous amount of plot twists and deus ex machinas that defy logic in ways that insult your intelligence. The plot twist aren't very good, they feel forced and from those 4 episodes I did watch, there was one or more each episode and they really are just silly. The deus ex machine is even worse in my opinion, I probably can't list them all here since I haven't watched the whole thing, but when things two people using their Geases (I think that's how it is in plural form, I'm really not sure) to somehow STOP TIME, you know that something is very wrong with this show. I've read what happens at the end, and honestly, it's just completely idiotic, I won't say to avoid spoilers but there is no reason it should of ended that way, it was just an excuse to be "dramatic" when they were just being silly as usual. Not worth your time, I wouldn't even recommend R1, even if it is better, it's just mediocre, even if it looks magnificent in comparison to this.
