From Amazon.com In the first feature based on the popular series, Sakura wins a trip to Hong Kong. Her father is away on business, so she goes with Toya, Yukito, and Tomoyo. Hong Kong is the home of her classmate and sometime ally Li Shaoran and his obnoxious cousin Meilin, and the cast is soon reunited. Clow Reed, the wizard who invented the magical Clow Cards, also lived in Hong Kong, and his presence lingers there in the memory of the redoubtable sorceress Madoushi. Although Li Shaoran, his beautiful mother, and Kero offer their assistance, Sakura uses her inner resources to defeat Madoushi, a more powerful and evil foe than any of the Cards. This longer adventure preserves the qualities that have won the series so many fans, and it's more entertaining in the subtitled Japanese version than in the clunky English dub. Unrated; suitable for ages 9 and up: Violence. --Charles Solomon |
 "Kai's Review CARDCAPTOR SAKURA!"I recommend this for any anime fan, Cardcaptor Sakura is a brillant anime, full of magic and action brought to you from CLAMP who have also created Chobits, Magic Knight RayEarth and Angelic Layer. But don't get Cardcaptor Sakura mixed up with Cardcaptors as Cardcaptors is for a younger audience which was cut and dubbed. It can be viewed in both Japanese and English, though I think it sounds so much better in Japanese as it is the way it was made, and I think it works better, but if you're not into subtitles then the English version is always an option. I very much enjoyed (though the second film is much better) it so give it a go, and remember...... DON'T KNOCK IT, TILL YOU'VE TRIED IT!!!  "This is a great movie!"Of course the English dub is... etto... well, y'know what I mean. None of the voices fits the character. But the Japanese version is really great. The sound and the voices are awesome! OMG! I love Yukito-kun's voice (Ogata Megumi)! All in all, this is a great movie, I don't recommend you the English version, though. I wasn't able to watch that version to the end. I had to change it. Whatever, you MUST watch it!! You will LOVE it!!  "Cardcaptor Sakura-The Movie"Good animated Japanese film, still recommend reviewing these types of films for adult content before giving to children "one word " breath taking" hang on thats two words... Sorry.. lol"I am collecting the cardcaptor sakura dvds and have only have 3 left to go the last two of the series and the sealed card, I love this movie!!! I love cardcaptor sakura!!!! As other anime fans will say again its best to watch the japanese version... the english is well... poorly dubbed to say the least also.. well...you dont get the same feel... the same tension and emotion in the voices it seems more real in japanese. I liked cardcaptors when I was on tv but when i saw my first episode of Cardcaptor sakura, thanks to the advice of fellow anime fans, I fell in love with it! hehe I am not that taken by the dub... infact i crindge at it now... though I not against it and find myself watching the ones I taped now and again.. well anyhow im babbling again! this dvd has a great story line and wisked me away I watched it sevral times in a row hehe, he adventure begins shortly after catching the arrow card, and having *cough* some luck!.. with a prize draw find herself in hong kong home of Shoran and th begining to another adventure where dark secrets are told, not only that but she meets some of Shorans family! It cant be missed so those who havent seen it WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR!!!! get you own copy now ^_^ "#1"The Japanese actress/actors gives the character in this new movie a great voice! What I like about this movie is that it has both languages, and lets you decide which you want to watch it in. I bought the Cardcaptor Sakura version simply because the Cardcaptor Version is outrageously terrible. I mean, the voice actress/actor sounds like adults trying to be kids. Although we all know that they are kids being kids. The voices don't see to match ANY of the characters! But what made this movie special is that the Japanese actress/actors actually acted like the age of the character, but we all know that Sakura Tange is not a 4th graders. I really liked this. Sakura wins a trip to Hong Kong, but when she leaves Japan and arrives in Hong Kong. Hong Kong gave her more than what she bargained for... |
