Justice to the series

To start, I have not actually seen the DVD of this movie, but I did see the movie at Fantasia in Montreal last year and it was spectacular. It put the intensity of the entire series into a single feature length movie.
For those who have seen the series, you will find that they were liberal in their adaption of the characters for a shorter feature, eliminating some all together, but stayed true to the spirit and essence of the series characters. Not as touchy-feely as the series, the movie holds a balance of the elements the series displayed, allowing each to surface at the right time for it. And for those who don't know the series, this will make you want to see it.
My strongest congratulations go to Jji Nakata, for sucessfully combining a series worth of story into one highly entertaining, action packed and intesive movie. I enjoyed it so much, that I have been keeping my eye out for the DVD for almost a year.

I've really enjoyed this series. The main character is likable and entertaining. The series follows a pretty straight forward script without overly emotional dramatics but includes a lot of action and fun. They are written like a movie script and would make good action/sci-fi movies. The series has been included with the Amazon Unlimited which is what initially drew me to it but I have not been disappointed.

One of my favorite series. ufotable did an amazing job with the music and use of color. The series is very adult though so please keep that in mind.

I enjoyed the series very much.  It develops the history of the day very well and sets the backdrop for each of the characters.

A Great read from the series. I was sorry to read of the deaths of some of the more prominent characters but so goes life.

So many things are still coming into play by this step in the series, while things from early on still are brought back to life.  The series has done well in keeping itself together as a story, and not just a number of individual works as other series can tend to do.

This is a MUST for those who loved the series, but hated the way it ended. The story continues, just like a next chapter in the series. With of course the solution to the seemingly bitter end of the series. It continues in the tradition of the series, up to the climax we all hoped for: to wormhole or not to wormhole? Watch!

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the series. The plot had enough twists and turns to keep you guessing, but the 4th episode really brought it together to make the ending extremely satisfying.

I love this series  The character development is one of the key reasons. The other reason is the mention of great classics and works of art.

This series so far (I have read books 1 and 2) is first class. There is enough fun to lighten the load this veteran cop carries on his shoulders. The variety of ages of the members of the force is very satisfying as Smith makes his way through the contemplative years of near retirement. Norfolk is a great setting, too. This author beats some others we are addicted to.

This series was fun to watch.  There was plenty of action with the hero winning in the end.  Good one for the "B" grade fan.

a good series and a good pick up to preserve the theme and the style and pace of the original story line

This is where the series gets good. You have to see the previous episodes to really appretiate the events that unfold here. The previous episodes were seemingly just that. Episodes. However in the main stories, they were always giving bits and pieces to the puzzle of the main agenda of the story arc. If you've seen the other series before this part, and are wondering if this is worth the buy...then wonder no longer. This is truely where the story, and the action gets good.

Excellent series with a touch of humor which keeps the seriousness of the crimes from being overpoweringly tedious.  I have only watched the first two cases on the first DVD in the set but I would highly recommend this series since I have enjoyed these very much and I am glad I bought the set.

I loved this series. The writing and cimitography was excellent. While there were some issues with continuity, the series was well done.
