Is it worth a look?

Made with Japanese studio Wit, a new original anime Bubble Has its big debut on Netflix this Thursday, April 28th. The feature film, shot at the Berlin Film Festival last February, tells the story of the adventures of a young teenager in the upcoming Tokyo Apocalypse, the followers of a new extreme sport: Battlekour, the middle ground between a street fight and a parkour.

A real shock group was assembled to carry out the project Bubble : Director Tetsuro Arak (first seasons of Attack on Titan), screenwriter Gen Urobuch (author of the novels Destiny / Zero in particular), composer Hiroyuk Savano (Kill La Kill, Attack of the Titans). Also note that the character’s character design is signed by the manga Death Note and Platinum End designer Takeshi Obata.

The composition of this Dream team Provides visual and aesthetic quality Bubble Just spectacular. We were immediately introduced to this poetic world, which is tangled with many scenes of breathless persecution; It must be said that in terms of action, Tetsuro Arak is nothing but a novice, as evidenced by his excellent work on the series. Attack of the Titans (Seasons 1 to 3).

However, the visual properties of the film are insufficient to compensate for the weakness of the story. We could not offer a really fascinating story and say it is very ordinary and not original enough! Bubble Gets bored pretty quickly. Despite the desire to add depth to the characters, the script is lost fairly quickly in a sequence of silly and clichéd scenes that evoke emotions other than indifference in the viewer.

In an attractive way, Bubble So it’s mostly half-frustrated. Neither bad nor successful, the feature film lacked only a more sophisticated story and, of course, the courage to overcome its theme and offer something more original, or even more surprising.
