Watched Oct 1 2015 Score 6 (okay)/ 2(horrible)
I have had both good and bad experiences with live action adaptations. So when it was Attack on Titans turn I didn't know what to think. After seeing some trailers and neat Japanese commercials I decided I was in. Well The special showing came around and I got to say it was an interesting experience.
Yes. This movie is both simultaneously good and completely horrible. Let me explain.
I will get the bad out of the way. The movie is NOTHING like the anime. If you are expecting a faithful or even a partly faithful adaptation ohhhh think again. Basically all they took was the uniforms and the titans. They even took liberties with the titans.
They completely changed the story then tried to shove key moments from the anime in even though they make no sense now. There you have it that is why it was horrible. Attack on Titan in name only.
BUT
If you can get over that its not a good adaptation just go in to watch it it's actually not bad. It was really cool seeing the colossus Titan. The movie does have some eye widening moments. It was kind of like a car crash. Bad but you just cant turn away you want to see more. It truly is entertaining to watch.
