This is one of the best movies to come out in the 2000 decade. Everything you could want is in this movie. Tons of some of the best coreographed action scenes with some of the best dialog which perfectly glues all the action sequences together. The dialog seems mostly in the background however and is really taken over by the style and scenery, which is a very sleek look with a very blue tint. While the action is all well done this movie doesn’t really amount to much more than that, but this isn’t really a problem at all due to the title. “Volume 1” really is all about the hack and slash action with the intention of getting us familar with the characters, and at the end we have the sense that there is something much more coming. But in the meantime, its enough to sit back and enjoy the joy ride this movie takes you on.
