    5 out of 5 stars phantom 2040.......2007-03-09

    it is excellent, my son who is 12 enjoyed it more than the other two phantoms videos which he also liked. It has several interesting life lessons for adults that make it worth alot

    3 out of 5 stars GOOD Phantom Story - BAD Execution.......2006-12-12

    I never watched this series when it was in syndication back in 1994, but wanted to see this film due to my admiration for Lee Falk's PHANTOM. The sci-fi based PHANTOM story presented here is very good and handles the PHANTOM character well. PHANTOM 2040 has some very good ideas and originality (the Phantom's partial invisibility, biots, remote brains, unique characters), but the thing that drags this presentation down to only a 3-STAR rating is the horribly ugly animation. The people are ugly, the robots are ugly, the vehicles are ugly, and the animals are ugly. This should come as no surprise, however, when we realize that the unusual character design and animation style was the product of Peter Chung, the creator of MTV's 1991 stylized hyper-skinny Aeon Flux animated series. If the same quality of design went into this film as went into, say, BATMAN THE ANIMATED SERIES, this picture would be excellent. The strengths of PHANTOM 2040 are its story, music and creativeness, but it's too bad that the quality ends there. The PHANTOM is a great character and certainly deserves better. Let's hope that sometime in the near future someone will pickup the mantel and give us an animated series worthy of the world's oldest costumed hero: The man who cannot die, the ghost who walks - THE PHANTOM. Despite my negative comments, I'm not implying that PHANTOM 2040 is unwatchable, (I've seen it 3 times so far) I just think it could have been (or can be) done MUCH BETTER.

    This is an excellent production of the story into a movie format. I am not certain if it is the entire series but this movie version is great.

    5 out of 5 stars Phantom 2040.......2006-07-05

    I really enjoyed this animation The Phantom's ideals are transported into the future with excellent, unusual graphic style of Peter Chung, great music and a clever multi layered story. This will not disappoint those with a discerning eye and ear. Waiting for the next one.

    5 out of 5 stars Also suitable for adults!.......2005-02-01

    Although classed as an animated film for younger people, this is definitely also for adults. I accidentally caught the series on TV and was hooked. While the story of good vs evil is straightforward enough for younger viewers, there are plenty of themes that appeal to older viewers: the environment, corporate politics, the blurring of entertainment and propaganda, the manipulation of individuals. There are plenty of characters who are neither wholly good nor wholly bad, but who are manipulated or misguided. There are technologically enhanced humans and human-like androids and even the line between human and artificial becomes blurred. The DVD release is long overdue and I'm looking forward to further instalments.
