Title: A Nice Surprise
Review: I wasn't sure what to expect when I popped Kaena-The Prophecy into my DVD player. WHEW! I was blown away. This is one trippy movie! Imagine H.R. Giger & "Dark Crystal" era Jim Henson working together on a CGI fantasy / adventure & you'll get an idea of what this is. One of my biggest surprises was how great Kirsten Dunst's voice acting is in this film. She's required to say some pretty crazy sci-fi dialogue & she manages to make it all seem quite natural & believable. Perhaps Kirsten should overdub Natalie Portman's dialogue in the Star Wars prequel special editions. Anyway, the story for Kaena-The Prophecy is actually interesting & requires an attention span to follow. (A very rare thing for modern animation) Essentially, this is everything the Final Fantasy movie from a few years ago should have been. If you love animation & sci-fi / fantasy, check it out as soon as possible.
