For those familiar with the saga that is "Lum", this will be no surprise. The movie focuses on an old legend about a journey to an ancient Palace, brought to life in the modern world. If you are a fan of extreme fantasy, or classic style anime, this is the film for you. While the plot is a little difficult to follow at times, it is always entertaining, with tongue-in-cheek jokes meant for fans of the Urusei Yatsura series. The movie progresses just like a dream, and the voice acting is perfect for this particular genre. Don't expect any breath-taking animation like Akira, and don't expect any deep, philosophical lesson. It is simply a fun movie for all ages. No real violence to speak of, and NO bloodshed. A perfect movie for the whole family.
Beautiful Dreamer lives up to its name by showing a look into the surreal side of the series' universe. Making this perhaps the most celebrated Urusei Yatsura movie among western fans. There's little slapstick comedy or girl-chasing hijinks to be found. Instead offering an experience beyond what any text review can show. Where Only You was simple and accessible fun due to being like an extended TV episode, Beautiful Dreamer turns out even better through reliance on the enjoyment that comes from contemplating its symbolism afterward. A sign of a real masterpiece film is that you'll keep thinking about the finer points long after the credits roll. Urusei Yatsura 2 does that and more.
Super awesome 👍
