This is a movie review for “The Seven Deadly Sins The Movie: Prisoners of the Sky”, original Japanese released August 18,
2018. I watched this via Netflix on April 19, 2020. We watched this as English dubbed, since we watched the whole series on Netflix in English dubbed.
Trailer
Cast
Plot
This is about the 7 Deadly Sins,
including Escanor, dealing with a demon group called the 6 Knights of
Black and how, after passing through a portal that dropped them off
on an island in the sky, the Sins helped a celestial named Solaad
(that looks exactly like Meliodas but with wings) learn how to stand
up for himself.

Rating Criteria
0/5 – No value whatsoever. Absolute
waste of time.
1/5 – Barely worth any time.
2/5 – Pathetic but has a bit of
something to hold the attention a little.
3/5 – Somewhat kept the attention
but could definitely have used more.
4/5 – Good, but not awe-strikingly
amazing. Could have maybe used a bit more to the movie.
5/5 – Go see it! Wonderful movie all
around. – characters, music, theme, story line, etc.
3.5/5 – This is not part of
anime story-line canon, as far as we know by the end of Season 3
Episode 24 (“So Long As You're Here”, released Oct 15, 2018)
because Escanor is in this movie and he didn't show up until episode
14 of season three (“Master of the Sun”). It was good to see the
whole group here but it made no sense regarding where it sat in the
canon timeline. I would have liked to see it linked in with the show
better because then it wouldn't feel like such a filler between
seasons (and they still haven't brought out the next season as of the
end of November 2019).
One major thing I didn't like was the
fact that the celestial Solaad and his celestial girlfriend were darn
near identical to Meliodas and Elizabeth. It is fine that the
plotline revolves around the fact that Meliodas and Solaad look darn
near identical but Elizabeth and her counterpart?! *fumes*
The artwork and animation of the movie
were in good taste and were very much in the same vein as the show,
so if you like the show, you'll like the artwork/animation of the
movie. I would not suggest this as a stand-alone movie because it
tells nothing of the characters aside the celestials and it is not
very good with the canon of the anime (though I have no clue how it
works with the manga) but it is a cute movie. [Stick to the anime, in
my opinion.]
Well, that's my review. Thanks for
reading! More reviews to come in the future.
