Bionicle 3: Web of Shadows
Almost a year ago, I watched the 2nd Bionicle movie and reviewed it. I had read that there were only going to be the 2 movies. Imagine my surprise when I get a recommendation on my Netflix account for a 3rd movie. As I liked the first 2, I put the 3rd movie in my queue and waited for it.
This movie is pretty much the same as the other two in terms of theme. Unity, duty, and destiny are what the Toa strive for. Plot wise, it has gotten more complex and the animation has definitely improved. However, this movie really doesn't stand alone. Maybe because it's a sequel to a prequel and so the writers/animators/directors were boxed in by what had already happened in the other films which detail the past and future.
Still, it's worth a rental if you've seen the other movies.
