Editorial Reviews
This 8 episode anthology of 10-15 minute length each, explores the origin and historical events of the HALO universe, and various characters inhabiting the world. Like Animatrix and Batman Gotham Knight, each of the 8 episodes will be created by a separate prominent Japanese anime producer.
Customer Reviews
Halo is the BEST First-person shooter game Ever.
Customer Rating:I do understand why some people Hate It or Didn't Like It which is because there is alot of Playstation 3 Fans and Fans of the previous versions of Playstation out there. Halo Legends is base on those video games for the X-Box and X-Box 360 and other sources in which I love the Halo Video Games for it is the BEST First-person shooter Ever for at least the way the Covenant and the Flood fight back against you when you play it on Legendary. There is 8 stories but I like the last four stories better which are: (1)Odd One Out which is a silly funny with a Dragon Ball flavor, (2)Prototype, (3)The Babysitter and (4)The Package in which I love this story the most for if you are a Fan of the Halo Game Series you will know why. In Halo Legends you get various art forms, Halo history, Sci Fi Star Trek plus Star Wars like battles, violence, love and more. The Flood are mention here and I have to say in the Halo Video Games they scare me more than Michael Jackson's Thriller video.
Highs and lows
Customer Rating:I was going to make this a decent review but Amazon unfortunately screwed up the original and I don't feel like retyping it all.
Overall this is an excellent DVD set graphically, visually, acousticly, and story wise but has a tendency to be a bit of a downer. Not surprising considering the nature of the Halo universe and how humans get the short end of the stick. That said some stories are also incredibly up lifting while at the same time being somewhat depressing.
And while Halo Legends is not exactly a thought provoking master piece I found myself contemplating the themes of each story, except one, quite deeply even several days after viewing them.
A word of warning "Odd One Out" attempts to be funny and crackish but in my opinion it is exceedingly stupid.
Got Me Intersted In The Halo Universe
Customer Rating:Before watching this film, I wasn't a Halo fan at all, but I was a little curious. I finally decided to watch it today, and it was so good, I had to watch it twice! It's not actually a feature film, but seven different short episodes on one disc, all done by different animation studios, so no episode is the same, and all of them are excellent. There is alot of action, drama, suspence, and even comedy in one episode done by the talented artists of the Dragonball series. I caught on to the Halo story pretty quick thanks to Origins 1 and 2, so I was able to enjoy all the rest of the episodes. By the time it was all done, I was facinated by the Halo story, and I will buy the games in the near future. Overall Halo Legends gets a 5/5.
Excellent
Customer Rating:Much better then I expected. I rented it for the kids but ended up buying it on Blue Ray after watching it.
Only a few good episodes
Customer Rating:I consider myself a hardcore Halo fan. I have read all of the books and know the back story to the games. I can honestly say only 3 of the 8 episodes are worth viewing. The best part of this entire package is the History of Halo in the special features. What does it say about a set of episodes when the best part is in the special features? Overall disappointed.
