5/5 One Of The BEST Anime Movies I've Ever Seen!!!!
  by Rockstar Romeraux (Baker,Louisiana)
The first Bleach Movie to me i'll admit wasn't a good feature film start for Bleach. But they cleaned it up really good with the sequal, Diamond Dust Rebellion. The movie is pretty good plot wise. Someone from Hitsugaia's past is back, and want's to settle a score, that could put both the world of the living and the soul society in peril. Sounds good right? right. Now to the action....SUPURB!!! The animation is very good for this movie, and I love how EVERYONE and I mean EVERYONE'S favorate characters have a crucial role in this film. Everyone from Kenpachi to Renji, to the old bald guy, to even the young bald dude, all see some action in this one. Plus, for the first time in a Bleach feature, Ichigo uses his hollow mask. AWSOME!! Overall I give Bleach Diamond Dust Rebellion a 5/5, even if your not a fan of the sereis, you can't go wrong with this movie.

5/5 Awesome

5/5 Bleach: DiamondDust Rebellion Review
  by Gigan300 (TN)
This film is without a doubt one of the greatest anime films I've seen. What he first film did wrong, this film does right. What was done right in the first film, it was done right again in this one, but even better. I really liked the action in this film A LOT. Seriously, this film has just some great action in it. The scene where Kusaka(the villain) transforms into a dragon, and then Kenpachi just charges at him was FREAKIN AWESOME. You even get an epic battle that involves the whole 13 Court Guard Squad, and yes even Head Captain Yamamotto fights. The drama with Hitsugaya wanting to take on the his burden alone was done greatly. Kusaka, the villain, was great, and you could really pity the character. Kusaka also comes off as cold when he kills his subordinates, the arrancar chicks. The score in this film was great, it even seemed dark in a couple of scenes. The story serves more like a mystery, which was nice. The main thing I liked was that you got more interaction with the other characters, unlike the first film. Chad and Ishida actually fight in this film(albeit briefly). My favorite scene(s) would have to be when Kenpachi charges at Kusaka, and when Soi-fon and Yoruichi fight. Also, you get to see Ichigo don his Hollow mask, but that only lasts for one moment. Hitsugaya in my opinion is one the most overrated characters in the Bleach universe, but he was just awesome in this film.

The only thing I didn't like was the whole "I'm gonna take vengeance on Soul Society" storyline, which I feel has been over-used.

1/5 Bleach for fan-only material, Bad Movie
  by Vince (Seattle, WA)
Don't get me wrong, Bleach was alright on the TV series from season one to... season one. This movie was really bad. 5 stars people? Are you kidding me? I mean, the we're-all-in-this-together mushy-wushy friendship theme was already corny, the story was even worse. The makers of the film were probably drunk and decided "Ah I know what to do director-san! Let's have them do all Bankais!", "Very well! that's the theme! Random all-out Bankai showcase film!"

If I was some dorky Bleach super-fan and not a film critic, I would go "OMGOMGOMGOMG!!! bankaaais! This is soooo coooool, and Toshiro is soooo cute!", but man, I'm not.

The plot of the story was so simple, I already expected what would happen 10 minutes from the start of the film.

The lines were horrible.

They tried to fit all of the characters in one movie, that they all ran out of lines and had almost less than 10 words each, and you can't barely focus on the character. If there were characters with more lines, they just keep saying almost the thing.

And the fight scene was also bad. It's so, "Bleach". All the characters are fighting all at the same time you lose focus and have no centered attention on the action. And just as I said, this was made for over-frantic bleach nerds talking about Bankais all day, and those who have crushes on drawn people like the Hitsugaya boy.
