Heavy Metal 2000 (2000)

Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

"Heavy Metal 2000" is a worthy successor to 1981's "Heavy Metal". Made in the style of the original, it has a strong reminiscent of the eighties. Unlike the first one that is an omnibus, this one has only one story, but the story and characters at the level of the first movie. There is a bit less nudity and violence, and the soundtrack, although weaker than the one from the '80s, has several really good tracks, performed by the great names of its time. Those who loved the first should likewise love this one.7/10

This game tie in unlike it's cult classic predecessor still managed to keep me griped throughout the whole movie. The animation, while awkward at times is smooth, and the gore and fighting when there is some, was satisfying for my taste. While not filled with nudity like the original, it still has it's signature "Heavy Metal Boobies" in a couple of scenes. I found the soundtrack to be amazing, (A lot of people complain it's not Heavy Metal, but it's more of a modern take on the Heavy Metal Genre and fits in with the film. Hence the name "2000") The voice acting is mostly good, the villain was pretty cool and I liked the Cyberpunk take on it. I can understand why people hate it, but if you watch it as a B movie you'll probably find yourself surprised too. It's rare to come across adult films like this (Fritz the Cat, Rock n' Rule, Wizards, Heavy Metal, Dead Space Downfall, The Animatrix, Heavy Traffic, Exc.) which is a shame in my opinion, but in the end, give this a watch, it's a nice film.

This is about as bad as it gets folks. I usually won't bother reviewing a film I only got ten minutes into and this is no exception. This is not a review but a fervent prayer. The folks at HM had long since sold out years before this 'flick' was aborted out of their greasy grimy orifices, but to see so much negativity in so short a period of time was almost heroically criminal. The spirit of the original HM was spit, shat, vomited and peed on so much in the first 10 minutes, I had to run, nay fly to my laptopper to vent my spleen. Thank goodness for IMDb, and thank the Cosmos for Karma. The perpetrators of this atrocity will pay for their crime by being forced to watch this monstrosity for years and years or at least until they hunt down and burn/erase every copy of this insult to the concept of eyes. This one was such a letdown, even the Great Space-Demon demanded his money back, and he's the one who commissioned it! :)

Pubesencent eye candy fodder, that falls short of Anime standard in levels of gore and action which the fan base expects but lays on tons of pointless, sub-Hentai nudity! Then the opening credits roll..... Though not even that great a movie, at least the original Heavy Metal stands head and shoulders over this shambles.Lazy Animation,weak voice acting, Micheal Ironside does his best before losing interest while Billy Idol (!?) is largely anonymous and Julia Strain is especially bad. A predictable storyline and laughable characters coupled with dated, poorly realized CCG, makes this one to miss,and thats a F.A.K.K 2. Will appeal to those willing to overlook the crudeness of the production, but not the crudeness of the magazine!
