I'm far from the most hardcore Fate fan, however I have enjoyed my experience lately.and plan to get into Fate Grand Order soon. Let me begin off by saying I recently started watching Fate a few months ago with Fate Stay Night. Reviewed by animegurutb 9 /10 I gave a 9, but feel an 8.5 would be most appropriate if we could do half stars But, was it grand and enjoyable? Hell yeah. Hopefully there would be a director's cut version of it.Īs a fan, was it a master piece that I wanted? No, not by a long shot. However it had too many compromises and the whole thing feels wrinkled and uneven. This is the over all feel I had when I walked out of the theatre, I could really appreciate what they were trying to do and the embedded message of it. I think what has happened is that they started off very well, how ever half way through making the third movie they realised "oh shit, at this rate we will never finish the story with only three movies."then they cut out all the little details which would really flesh the story out a lot more. That said, this last installment was not consistent with previous two. Let me just say, if you do not know what this series is about, there is no way you will understand what this movie is talking about. Reviewed by speed3106 8 /10 Barely made it to the end in one piece. This is a sequel to end it all and it'll give a large spectrum of fans at least a few things to love. As for people that simply want a highlight action reel, this movie also gives them what they want in spades. It wants to treat them competently and read into subtext. It expects its viewers to know the story it tries to tell. If someone can't necessarily remember plot elements tied to previous works like Unlimited Blade Works or Fate/Zero, I don't think the fault is placed on this movie. What this story tries to show and allude to can only ever be appreciated if looked as a sequel because that is the clear intention. With that out of the way, I will say that this film cannot and should not be judged as just a single piece of work but as a culmination for ALL of Ufotable's Fate works. There generally are no hard cuts for scenes, the storyboard for the film is much more straightforward and it naturally answers most questions(with the exception of the ending). Let me preface by saying that from a technical aspect, this movie is head and shoulders above the first two movies.

Honestly, I feel that the critiques in some of these reviews are legitimately unjustified. Reviewed by daverman 10 /10 A sequel to end it all
