Movie Reviews of Guyver, Vol. 7: Armor of the Gods
Movie Review: Lame lame and yet more lame
Summary: 1 Stars
I totally agree with the other review. If anything he was being too kind. Two of the episodes are nothing but the yammering and whining of the secondary characters who are well aware that the only thing they can do is hide. The only effect they ever have is to provide hostages to Chronos or prevent the Guyvers from using their heavy weapons for fear of toasting their friends.
When the main characters finally show up the fighting is extremely poor and uninteresting.
I disagree with the other review in one respect: I think the old Guyver series was better than this one in one respect. The old series did not pull its punches when it came to fighting. The old opening showed the Guyver blasting out the eyes and crushing the skull of a Zoanoid. The new series tones down the gore quite a lot and the fights are far less intense.
This new series does have better art, and it does do a better job of explaining what's going on and the back story is much richer. But like the first series it ends leaving virtually every major plotline dangling leaving us with no story closure.
Overall this series is a long and expensive ride going nowhere.
