This is very "above average" drama, a crime movie and a somewhat bizarre love story. The "master" might seem spoiled and much more powerful "servant" might seem cold and cynical, but the ending is really powerful.įorget the critics. The uneasy relationship between the "master" and "servant", that is somewhere between the love and the hate is also very interesting. The plot is somewhat familiar for the Westerners as it builds on the West culture. Even though this might seem to be bizarre, it is actually very cool. The story is actually a near future sci-fi fantasy crime movie. It might be a hard thing to swallow for some but it is worth it.
Of course, there is an incredibly complex storyline that makes the Japanese stories hard to follow for us, the plain West village folks. I have seen the Black Butler movie for the very first time and I have kinda liked it. So their fundamentalist dismissals of movies based on this argument are totally off the mark. They are not alone on this world and these movies are made for more general public who do not have encyclopedic knowledge of the respective fictive universes. To quote the Black Butler, "their opinions slightly fuel my wish for killing". Please forget the opinions of manga fundamentalists.
