SmugKitZine Tied for the best movie I have ever seen

Brightlyme i know i wasted 90 mins of my life.

YouHeart I gave it a 7.5 out of 10

Peereddi I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

phanthinga I have to say this The Professional: Golgo 13 blew my mind away.After watching this movie i can't think of an anime that this much badass and this much awesome.The main character Duke Togo also known as Golgo 13 is a professional hit-man for hired that is so good as his job that everybody call him the man that make the impossible possible.In this movie he find himself is a target of a manhunt by the FBI,CIA and numerous of highly trained assassin after a usual mission.Now he have to prove himself is the best of the best in the business to find the main behind all this and kill him before thing get a little messy.Duke is pretty much the James Bond of both the manga and anime world when he kick ass in the left,get the girls in the right and always maintain his cold head and emotionless through out the movie.The anime it self is very good with hand drawing animation and sometime beautiful scene capture from the manga,the fight scene is probably one of the best fight scene i ever see in anime for a long time.It also have the grittiness and rawness of real world often rare to find in an anime nowadays

thegreatwhy-312-879122 Having never read the original series, I'll have to go with what's in the movie. Golgo 13 is slow, pretentious and predictable to the point of boredom. Every single character is an off-the-mark stereotype and every single situation is a worn-out trope you've seen in either a 007 or Dirty Harry movie, making the movie a simple collage of scenes you might have liked from other movies (kinda like the recent "Jupiter Ascending"). Throughout the movie, events keep happening "just because", without any regard to personality or logic, and that emphasize even more the "patchwork" aspect of the movie. The movie's only redeeming quality is the visual impact, but the slow pans and masterful lighting effects are overplayed to the point of exhaustion, and do nothing to improve the movie's terrible pacing (though it gets somewhat better). Sometimes in manga the main character is intentionally made shallow and only marginally interesting, to bring out the secondary characters and help the writer focus on their own story (see Hokuto No Ken), however the device here fails miserably, because every single character is just as shallow, often possessing a single character trait. All in all, one of the worst anime I've ever seen: this movie has nothing to offer you.

Darth-Helmet Oil industrialist Leonard Dawson had a 60th birthday on a cruise ship and his son Robert was making his day happy until a single bullet kills his boy. The man who killed him is Golgo 13 who is a mysterious hit-man who loves the ladies as he scores with them and goes out for some killing as being his choice of sport. Dawson vows revenge as he hires assassins and the FBI to go after Golgo 13 but can the unstoppable assassin live through all this ordeal? Very underrated cult Japanese animated action thriller based on the popular Japanese comics is a sensational one. This one isn't for the kids due to graphic bloody violence, scenes of sex with nudity and language but the film is very well animated and stylish. Sure the CGI in the climax is kind of laughable by today even though back then it was a little cheap and the storyline is very compelling as well as the old school type of animation here. The score is very good here that ranges from jazzy to more heartfelt even during the dramatic powerful climax.If your looking for an underrated Japanese animated diamond in the rough, check this one out.

action-6 The Professional Golgo 13 is a manga-film about an assassin called Golgo 13. Golgo 13 is the world`s greatest assassin, he has never broken a contract, but one day he kills Robert Dawson, the son of an oil-billionaire(Leonard Dawson). Suddenly, Golgo 13 is hunted by FBI, CIA and the U.S.Army. The action found in are explosiv as he¤%, and very bloody. This manga is better than many of the hollywood-produced action-films, this is original and with a superb story. The ending is also very unexpected and innovative. A movie you must see! 10/10
