Synopsis
Kaitou Kid dares to challenge the police once more, setting his sights on the Russian Imperial Easter Egg. With the date, time, and place, the Osaka police force scrambles to stop him. But this time, Kid may have bitten off more than he can chew—Conan Edogawa, Heiji Hattori, and numerous others are also trying to get their hands on the jeweled egg. As the race for possession of the egg escalates, a string of murders threatens those after it, and at the same time the tragic truth behind the Romanov Dynasty is finally revealed. At the center of these developments, it is up to Conan to solve the gruesome murders and catch Kid, all while protecting those close to him and concealing his identity. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

Detective Conan Movies Rewatch Before Watching Movie 26: Movie 3 My favorite DC movie from childhood, and still my favorite DC movie almost 20 years later. The name of the movie is quite fitting, as watching this movie felt like watching magic. The movie combined mystery with adventure masterfully and managed to balance the cast and the motives well by focusing on the egg as the main storyline. Some DC movies can get really messy with all the subplots, but not this one. The movie presented the case in a natural, logical manner with no inconsistencies nor any deus ex machina to fix plot holes. In addition,while some of the tricks and contraptions may be unrealistic, they are still very enjoyable to watch. Adding in Katsuo Ohno's BGM, the movie produced some of the most thrilling scenes as well as unexpected emotional ones. The climax of the movie with the egg was quite touching for an action/mystery movie. The greatest DC movie ever made. 10/10

Good movie. Kaito Kid was definitely the more interesting character, I love him. One thing I didn't like here: the handling of Heiji's character. In this movie he is out of character. In the series he and Shinichi have brilliant deductions simultaneously, in unison. Here, however, he does not intuit anything, unlike Shinichi. Furthermore, he only appears at the beginning of the movie, in a marginal role. In the series he is a secondary character who when he appears is one of the protagonist, here instead he seems to be an extra / a helper. Not only Heiji, but also the other characters aremainly extras. But it's a good movie, the story was interesting, and also it made me nostalgic to see this movie, made years ago, dubbed (now I'm caught up and I follow it in sub)

The Last Wizard of the Century used to be a very fun movie. I liked how the movie was about a very popular legend about a surviving family member of Nicholas II of Russia (this legend was disproved years after the film). Coming back to this film, I feel a little disappointed with how some of the side characters aren't as involved in the main story and just show up because they have to. This is their first appearance in the movies and it seems like they don't really matter much here. While I'm fully aware that this is an old movie, it's art andanimation have aged so much that it keeps me from enjoying this movie as much as I ought to. There are little moments where this movie does look great, but not much beyond that. With that said, I can still see why people would enjoy this movie. Figuring out the little mysteries is fun. Each part of the movie is interesting and unique to keep things fresh. The showdown and finale at the end are the best parts of the film. While I do understand the appeal this movie has with fans, everything I like about this movie is taken and improved on in later films, which makes re-watching this movie feel a little bit... old, I guess? Nevertheless, if you haven't seen it yet, then watch it for yourself and decide what you think of it.

Story - 8 Story starts off big and strong, with the whole extended cast and new locations. But then switches less than halfway in for something similar to a 1 hour special episode. Even more so since many elements were ripped off from previous episodes. (Like a murder mystery on the same cruise ship, again.) It wasn't so bad, but rather a bit of a let down. Both the action and case solving were neither outstanding. Art - 9 Superb and gorgeous. A bit of CG thrown in as well, but I give credit for effort. Quality noticeably drops towards the end but otherwise great. Sound - 8 The usualsoundtrack plus more. Voice acting for the main cast is great, but for others its inconsistent. Stand out was a Japanese VA trying to act as a Chinese character, and failing to speak a word of fluent Mandarin. Character - 9 Star of the show. Great character focus that extends past the main roster. Made even more interesting since Kaitou Kid is involved, and could be disguised as anyone. And the show definitely puts a lot of red herrings to keep you guessing. Enjoyment - 8 Had more than enough to keep me invested and interested. Enjoyed it start to finish. Overall - 8 Very good, much better than the previous movie, and a worthy successor to the first movie. Although it may feel like a glorified 1 hour special, it has plenty of art and characters to keep it going.

Considered as the 3rd movie of the highly known Meitantei Conan, the Last Wizard of The Century is a blockbuster in its era. The most notable thing in detective movie is the mystery element. Be prepare to found an amazing movie with a lot of mysteries hidden with it. You will be blinded by one of the most well-produced mystery. While the individual elements of the story done well, the plot is decent and manage to balance the story up. With historical value within this film, Last Wizard of The Century have a + sign for them and did a fairly good job in theplot settings. It is easily accessible, the movie is a perfect example of enjoying the series at its best without having to watch all of Meitantei Conan episodes. The animation is quite old if we compared it with our era now, but in general, it's decent. The sound settings are also decent as well. The characters came out from everywhere, almost all of the main cast appear in the screen. Kaitou Kid is the omniscient and overpowered character while our hero Conan is analytical and smart. Although omniscient is not a good thing, but the character did their roles pretty well. Overall, if you are a fan of Meitantei Conan, don't miss this. Also, if you a fan of detective and mystery settings is quite recommended for you.

This is the third movie in the Detective Conan Series. Which Unlike the other two before it is more of a historical mystery then a serial muder mystery. Even though there is quite a few murder victims. As you should know Edogawa Conan is Shinichi after being poisoned by the mysterious Black Organisation. The story starts with Conan, Ran and Mouri going to Osaka, under the request of Ran's Best friend in order to protect their family's Fabergé egg, which is under threat of being stolen by Katiou Kid (A new Character in the series which appears around 120 episodes). The plot revoles around the mystery ofthe Fabergé egg and the history and secrets it holds. The uniqueness of the plot is how it accounts for Tsar and its family including the history of the russian revolution. After Kaitou Manages to steal the egg from the police that were guarding it. He is shot down by a mysterious character, all that was left was his broken moncle and an injured white dove. With Kaitou mysteriously disappearing, The owner of the egg decides to go and make sure the egg is undamged after the incident. During this time someone who claims the egg belongs to their ancestors arrive. with the orginal designs for the egg. Only to discover from the drawings that there is two eggs. As the characters begin to relax and let loose and the other parties begin to fight over buying the egg, a murder takes place. Which leads Conan to believe the murderer is the same person who took down Kaitou. Therefore calling up Proffessor Agase. To check up the interpol wanted list. and found his suspected murder "Scorpion" All in all this movie involves probably the largest array of the Conan characters, practically everyone makes an appearence. From Inspector Meguri to Conan's Fellow high School Detective Hattori Heiji. I enjoyed this movie mainly cause there was more mystery then the first two. But at the same time it felt more story watching then challening you to try to solve the murders and the mystery. But I still enjoyed the twist at the end of the moive. ^_^

Story: 8 At first the story starts off getting to the real point of the whole thing. Kito Kid is in this, and he is a magician, so he must of course be the Last Wizard of the Century, which is the title of the movie, no? I mean, it is three years away from the change of the century to two thousand when this is movie is made. This might be something that one might want to keep in mind to the end. The ideas and the concepts in the movie run through in a way that one might think one thing at the begining andbe possibly blinded by them, but as one gets furthur along in the movie and more historical facts are revealed to the audience, one becomes less and less mystified and begin to put the facts together. The information presented about hte Russian tzar and his family is fairly accurate from what I can tell. Art: 9 As always, Detective Conan's animation is good, expessully for the time frame that it comes from. And some of the details on things, like the egg that Sonoko's family owns are amazingly detailed. I would go more into this, but the one problem is, if I do... I'll give away a story line that is really good and that isn't the point of a review. Sound: 10 The musical score for the soundtrack reminds me of the soundtrack for the Disney Movie Anastasia. It was released two years after Disney released it's movie, so it is an actual possibility that one movie may have influenced this movie. That really is up to you the viewer to decide, not me. Character: 9 We get to see the unprofessional acting cops who are after Kito again, which is histarical, though they don't play as big of a humor role in this. In fact, there are a lot of characters that rather show up in this movie, the cast isn't limited. Also, not only is this a Kito Kid movie, it gives depth into the theif magician's character. Enjoyment: 8 At first I was, for the first ten to twenty mintutes, not exactly thrilled with the movie. Most of the good stuff happens later on. Then again, Detective Conan movies are some of the few that will actually go and give a synopsis of what has happened so far for him, which might have been part of my problem, as I kind of feel that I know that allready. I am a major fan of the history and mystery surrounding the tzar's family and their deaths. So when I found, or more of figured that this played a good role in this movie, I was thrilled. And I might admit... biased because of it. From the historical point of view, they handled the historical facts quite well. Overall: 9 If you are a fan of Detective Conan, or of the tzars story, this is worth the watch of someone to watch, whether it is only one or not. It is put together in a way that is craftmanship.
