Good start, but then it gets ruined
Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
this 3rd movie in the "Bionicle" series is pretty good entry.just like the 2nd one is as good as the 1st,this one is as good as the 2nd.i really like the fact that the villain is very strong in this one and quite malevolent.more so than the two previous entries.the action is also pretty good,plus we have some double crossing,backstabbing going on to elevate the proceedings.i also like the wise old sage.i thought he was very likable.another thing i like is the different kinds of creatures in this one.as well,this movie is quite a bit darker in tone than the first two.there is more of a sense of danger and jeopardy.the other two lacked that element at least to a certain extent.the only other real complaint i have with this installment is that there were a few too many lulls in the story,with not enough going on.other than that i enjoyed it.i give Bionicle" 3:Web of Shadows" a 7/10
Here it is, another fabulous movie of the Bionicle Series. The animation is fantastic, the characters admirable in different ways - a pleasure to watch again and again! The one thing I love about this movie, and all the Bionicle movies, is that they always come out with a cool story line, never repeated with the other movies. It's always original.I love how it stays true to the books, and how it always stays close to the 'good over evil' back-bone story line. It's great for kids, but I'm a teenager and I love all the Bionicle movies! It's suitable for all ages, so why not just see it - it won't let you down.
This is a strangely sophisticated series for just kids! I am 24 years old and I loved it! Very nice animation with a very cool bad girl character. For once it's nice to see the female character (even if she's bad) as the strong one.I feel sad, however that the characters from the original movie were left behind in the story telling. This whole story COULD have been used with the characters from the first movie. After all what happened when they return to their city? I feel sad that these characters are left alone while the we focus on the past instead of the future.I hope this is not the end of this wonderful world of the bionicle. Kids need some QUALITY sci-fi movies and this is a great one to watch!
I enjoy watching the Bionicle series of movies myself and this one was no exception.The Story Continues where the second one left off. The Toa Metru return to Metru Nui to rescue the remaining Matoran from the ruins of their once great city. But they find that the Archives, a sort of museum or zoo, was destroyed, letting loose all of the creatures. Worse yet, Visorak spiders have taken up residence in the city under the lead of Sidorak and his viceroy/fiancée Roodaka, who has plans of her own. The Toa a quickly captured by the Visorak and mutated into Toa Hordika, but before they are destroyed by the Visorak, the Rahaga, turaga/rankshi mix, save them. Their mission now is to find a legendary creature that can turn them back to normal and patch up their unity before they are separated forever.The Animation in this movie is better than the others, especially in the face department. The Character's seem more alive than ever, which can be a good or a bad thing depending on what you think of the Masks. The downside is there is still lag at spots. The characters in this look more like their toy counterparts with the exception of perhaps Sidorak, whom I haven't really seen the toy.This movie also has an interesting mix of action and comedy. The Le-characters (the green ones) still provide the comic relief, while keeping the dark tone. Overall it is dark without being scary as to not frighten the children.The only problem I have with this movie is the continuity. While I understand not all of the adventure could fit in one movie, they, like in the second movie, skipped over various adventures and plot points like how they built the airships and the origins of the Rahaga and even the Mask of Light. They treat it as if it didn't happen. That is why I'm lowering it from 9 to eight.
