Editorial Review: Amazon.co.uk Review: As the eagerly awaited Cowboy Bebop feature film reunites the original director, screenwriter, composer and vocal cast, it's not surprising that the film plays like an expanded TV episode. What should be the routine capture of a two-bit hacker by Faye escalates into a deadly game of cat and mouse, as Spike and the gang struggle to prevent the evil Vincent Volaju from murdering every human on Mars. Director Shinichiro Watanabe handles the action sequences with his usual panache: inside the sinister Cherious Medical research facility, Spike fights a beautiful agent, using a push broom in a series of manoeuvres Jackie Chan might envy; the climactic duel between Spike and Vincent plays against innocent yet eerie images of a Halloween carnival. This will delight fans of the series and provide an excellent introduction for the uninitiated. --Charles Solomon Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - SuperbA superb movie. You really have to know the story of the series, or else you'll get confused with the characters, but the series is great too. Of course, this being Cowboy Bebop, the music in the movie is STUNNING. The opening credits song is simply awesome. Rating: - Slick, Sexy and StylishEven a person who has not been aware of Cowboy Bebop's back catalogue, nay, a person who has no previous experience of anime, can understand this realistic/futuristic modern masterpiece. The take on the future surroundings is classic and easily imaginable, accompanied by the classic characters that made the series. Plot Drama Comedy Violence Terrorism Animation Characters All of which are found in this wonderful Feature length movie, and done to such ...

The animation is beautiful - certainly better than the TV series due to the bigger budget - but this is matched by the excellent story line and voice acting. If only a lot of the cruddy American and European films and TV series showed the same dedication to the writing quality! The English dub (which, if you're honest, can be pretty horrible or laughable ... Read More Rating: - Cowboy Bebop: The MovieNot much more to say given the length of other reviews on this item, but for less than a fiver, you cannot go wrong with this anime DVD. From start to finish a real treat, whether you are familiar with the Cowboy Bebop universe or not. All the characters from the original anime series are here in another case of futuristic bounty hunting in the stars. The plot and direction are at a very high standard, with many memorable moments, tying in chase scenes and gun/fist fights with investigative ... Read More Rating: - Knockin' on heavens doorCowboy Bebop: The Movie is like a long episode. The director of the series (and movie) said he treated each episode like a small film. He was able to show Spikes more sensitive side and we get to see more of Faye than usual. The series usually concentrated on Spike and Jet, but this time Jet stayed behind. With incredible music once again by Yoko Kanno and amazing art work and camera angles (if that's what they're called in animations) that set the scene. This film delivers on style just as much as the series. ... Read More
