Greenes Please don't spend money on this.

Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined

Cleveronix A different way of telling a story

Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

ymeer_maxi After enjoying the episodic Anime series ages ago and left bitter with the cliff hanger ending, I was definitely looking forward to this movie."Berserk: Golden Age Arc I - The Egg of the King" (That's quite a long title isn't it?) tells the story about a warrior named Guts, who wields a large sword and is quite skilled in weapon based combat, he is hired as a mercenary by kingdoms in the battlefield and gets paid for the job well done and then he drifts away. Just after his recent victory he crosses paths with a mercenary group named "The Band Of The Hawk" led by a very charismatic leader named Griffith.I won't dip into the story any further because it would rob you the enjoyment of watching the movie if you are new to the series. The story progresses in a very interesting manner and it has it's twists and turns that keep the story engaging and makes you question the motives as it builds up the bigger premise behind it, with that said the fight scenes in this movie are quite fantastic and the gore level has been used to the max, the animation is very crisp and sharp and is definitely eye candy.Berserk: Golden Age Arc I - The Egg of the King gives you a start on the series and keeps things interesting throughout the movie, I barely noticed the time and soon it was all over and I was left with the feeling that I want to watch it more and how the story unfolds, it gives you a preview of the second arc towards the end of the movie. I would most definitely be looking forward to it. Give this one a chance, if you like it and let yourself immerse in it's world, you would definitely have a good time watching it.My final verdict for this movie would be a very solid 7 out of 10.

eranga perera Berserk is eye candy great animation, they have done well with the backgrounds and scenery's, matching emotions with color and light and detailed action bravo to the sword fights, all in all it is a superb movie, character with masochism, best suited for male viewers who likes gore and well feel macho...whatever, anyway the story is good too has a mystery element to it the flow is great, it keeps you involved, in the situation, keeps guessing and keeps the viewers in the dark. sex and violence a lot of it violence that is and it has 18+ on it, that is the whole 3 movies altogether. There are some scene that does look a bit similar to some other movie situations, namely LOTR but it's not that distracting or even significant at this point, i really enjoyed it, i think any one who enjoyed, LOTR, final fantasy, medieval action movies, should watch it, sex and violence with a meaning well who could say no to that. enjoy the movie!

unibaba2 After several months of anticipation I just got to watch Berserk - The Golden Age Arc Chapter I - The Egg of the King, and as a fan of both the Manga Comic and the animated TV series, I was not the least disappointed. This movie kicks ass! I was perhaps most amazed of the battles, which come off as extremely vivid and original.Many will compare this movie to the animated series, and yes, some things have changed, as this format is much more time-limited. The exclusion of some scenes and moments to the benefit of other, might make the movie feel as a summary of the series. The much loved musical themes of the series have also been changed, something I expected, yet hoped would stay the same as I really liked them. On the other hand, we get to see Guts and Griffith swinging their swords in a much more vivid graphical universe, which I think the story deserves! As the above mentioned mainly comes down to a matter of taste, the main problem with this movie is that it doesn't focus as much on character development as the original comic and animated series did. This will create some moments which new viewers couldn't possibly make full sense of. However, for any passionate Berserk-fan, this should not be a deal-breaker, as it is still a great movie, true to the original story.

whatdahellisthis Berserk manga by Kentaro Miura is one of the best saga I have ever seen, great script, great dialogues, great characters and all what mankind have to offer : from best to worst. But Berserk manga is actually very dark, very harsh, violent, and humanity got an ugly side, a real ugly one. This movie does a great job to introduce the Golden Age Arc. Unfortunately you don't have the Gut's childhood but instead just a flashback (showing his rape, his escape *do not worry since you should know this to understand his character when you began this movie and his reactions*). Griffith is the other main character, an angel face, a smart warrior, but a master puppet, who will shattered everyone who are against him... The Devil, God, "they are the same" from his own word. We know at the beginning of the manga that Griffith is actually a God Hand, and Guts... worst nemesis.
