Review of Goblin Slayer: Goblin's Crown

The first 25 minutes are a recap of the series. 25 minutes of the film are a recap that contain more or less, a couple new voice lines which serve to remind you that Goblin Slayer was traumatized as a child. What follows is rushed, incoherent, and lazy. A lot of this comes off like weird fanfiction. Everyone is loosely out of character, the fight scenes are not done nearly as well, the plans are even more halfassed than in the Water Town arc. Much of the movie is inconsistent in details such as where characters are standing in a scene, or what they're doing,or how far they are apart. The fight scenes are rushed, the story is rushed. I wasn't a fan of the resolution either. Noble Fencer got to do nothing more or less.

I had hoped this would be great, just as a continuation of the series. It's just bizarre really. This easily could have been a better movie with a lot of minor changes, better choreography and cinematography, etc. There are scenes in the original series that are surprisingly complex, whereas in this they can't even do a panning shot of people sitting in a circle.
