To start things off, I played the games over and over and watched the anime. So when a movie version was coming out, I was thrilled. Now for the DVD itself, the menu contains 4 options:
Play, Chapters, Set Up, and Extras
Now of course the first two are obvious, but there needs to be some explaining on Set Up and Extras just in case there are people wanting more details.
Set Up has only, now I repeat ONLY Japanese dub, so if your expecting to hear the English Dub forget about it. As for Subtitles it's there in English, but in yellow font. The yellow font kinda bugs me, however if you're used to watching animes, it's fine.
As for Extras, there is the;
Parody Mode, which is not related to ".hack//G.U. TRILOGY", any real organization and people. It just changes the dialog in the movie to be comedic. I enjoyed this little extra. It's kinda like the 4koma you see in the GU games.
Promotional 1, 2, and 3.
Special TV Program: Making of the Theatrical Feature. This one has the Director, Hiroshi Matsuyama, and Haseo VA, Takahiro Sakurai just talking about the development of the movie and games in general. What really surprised me was second people who presented the Trilogy trailer to the audience. It was Tomoyo Mitani. I know this isn't big, but I never seen a photo of her. At one point in time, I figure her voice was just a computer synthesizer or whatnot.
Image Board Gallery
and Trailers
Now for the main thing itself, the movie.
This movie focuses on just Haseo, Atoli and Ovan. Most of the games character don't really make it in for screentime. If you played the games, it'll revolve around Rebirth, skips Reminisce, and straight into Ovan's purpose.
Also if you never played Vol. 3 Redemption and don't want to be spoiled, avoid reading this part
*Spoilers* Cubia is NOT in this film. I'm just putting my thoughts on why this wasn't in. In the extras, the director said that they were developing this movie, while also doing Reminisce. So to be able to stay on length, they just didn't add it. And again, this movie just focuses on the three characters as mention.
*Spoiler ends*
This movie should be watched by fans as we know the full story, but if your new some parts may be confusing and have you thinking "wth whats up with this depressed girl". Overall I enjoyed it.

I think some other reviews have pointed this out, but the movie changes some of the story line to fit 3 games within a two hour movie. I understood what was going on at the whole time, but my friends who had never played .hack//G.U. were confused and I had to explain as the story was going on.
My favorite charecter in the games was not in the movie and it saddened me. (Endrance) However my main problem with the movie was that it simplified Haseo's charecter so much that Haseo seems like an insane sociopath. They really made him seem like an utter jerk with no redeeming qualities like in the games.
I enjoyed the movie, but the games capture the story line so much better. The graphics were good and the parody mood was hilarious.

.hack//SIGN was one of the original anime series that really hooked me into anime for good way back when. I used to stay up super late and make sure I watched at least it, and then after it quit airing, all of the prequels as well. I played every game and loved them equally. That said, this DVD collection is amazing. Granted, I already had all of it before, but having it condensed to one case is great for fans and new comers alike. I always recommend this series to my friends and I hope and pray that we will continue to see more of it in the years to come!

.Hack//G.U. were wonderful games (I've played them before) but this just doesn't live up to the full potential. First off they altered to much of how the story went in the games (Exmp. How Haseo got his X-th form). I can understand why they had to, its because they had to cram 3 games(one month with no side Quests, give or take) into a 2 hr 11 min movie. Still I liked it enough to buy it so I do suggest watching it, for it is an okay movie.

It is a great movie. I recommend it. Remember that this movie is very sentimental. VERY sentimental. I give it a 4 instead of a 5 for a few reasons:
>> We never really get a feel for the scope of the game world (offline or online).
>> The film shows too much of Haseo's forehead while his epitaph is doing the fighting.
>> It would probably have given more closure to the ending if we could have seen some dialog with Aura. Instead, we only hear her voice.

If you've played the game and watched the /GU series that is the prequel to the games, then you will know exactly what happens in this movie. People giving this item a bad review because it doesn't cover enough need to realize this is ONE movie for 3 games. They manage to fit nearly 90% of the game in this movie. The only thing they don't talk about are the tournaments, but, they show it without explaining it.
For .hack fans and especially fans of the GU universe, this is a recommended buy. Graphics and dialogue are great. I didn't watch the dubbed version; but, who would when you can watch it in its natural glory?

I LOVE .hack! And this Blu-ray is amazing! I'm not 100% sure it's not bootleg, but I really don't care at this point. It's an awesome movie and I'm glad I could see it in HD!
It branches off from the original G.U. storyline, but it's a nice change of pace. I still really enjoyed it. The audio is Japanese with English subtitles. Unfortunately there was never an English dub for this. So this is the next best thing ^_~

As a die-hard .hack fan, I have to say the level of drama in this movie is unmatchable to any other anime movie I have seen. The cheesy love scene with Atoli litterally made me laugh out loud, however there were aspects to this movie that gave me insight to the GU project as a whole. If you have not played the GU games, I do not suggest watching this movie.

自分はゲーム版プレイ済みです。
正直言ってよく映画の尺に収めたなぁと感心します。
けれどもいろいろなシーンが省略しすぎ感で、初見にはツライんじゃないか?と思いますが、逆にゲーム版見てないほうが、アレがないあのキャラ全カットなの?と思わずに済むかも?
万人受けはしないでしょう。どこをターゲットにしたのかもよくわからないですが、ゲーム版プレイ済みの方が振り返りするにはよさそうです。
パロディモードはゲーム版収録のものとはまた別なのでそれはそれでお楽しみです。

ゲームを前提として知っているのでなければ、確かに、話は理解しづらいです。
初見の人は、突き放された印象を受けるのではないでしょうか。
ただ、それでも、中心として焦点を当てる人物を絞り、映画向けにまとめたのは、
正しい選択だったと思います。そうでなければ、収集がつかなくなりますから。
それにより、取りこぼされた部分は、無論、ファンであれば、残念に感じるでしょうが。
可能性としては、何作かに分けるということも、ありえたでしょうけれども、
続編(?)あるのでしょうか。
映像は、ゲームよりも、格段に進歩しています。
特に、映像表現としての見所は、オーヴァンとの戦闘シーン。
ハセヲは、もはや、暴走初号機状態です。ここまで、幅のある主人公も珍しいでしょう。
ただ、カメラワークが、ゲームの映像に比べれば、単調になっています。
より客観的な視点からの、映像になったともいえますが、
ある意味では、迫力が減少した面も、あるように思えます。
内容としては、ヒロインとしてのアトリの視点が強くなり、心理描写が、深められたこと。
傷口が、より痛々しく描かれ、彼女とハセヲとの心の触れ合いが、重要さを増してます。
また、バックで流れる、挿入歌は、アトリのための歌です。これは、名曲です。
(しかし、志乃派の私としては、若干、残念ではありましたが)
パロディモードも、なかなか楽しめました。

ゲームでは物足りなく思ってたハセヲの怒り!狂気がここに!
Reviewed in Japan on May 28, 2010
今更ながら、G.U.ゲーム版のファンなので本作品を買いました。
他の人が書いておられるとおり、
G.U.シリーズ未経験の方には分かりにくいと思います。PS2のVol123を一つにまとめたのですから当然かもしれません。
逆にシリーズ経験者には凄く嬉しいファンディスクです!
個人的にPS2のvol2、3で性格が丸くなっていくハセヲに物足りなさ感じてたので、
PS2Vol1以上の怒りっぷり!狂気っぷり!が後半まで続いていくのに、
「これだよ!このハセヲを待ってたんだ!」とハセヲ3rdのカスタムバージョンに燃えました!
この勢いのまま本当の「トライエッジ」まで行って欲しかったな〜とゲームをクリアした後思っていたので、
3rd改と本当のトライエッジ戦は心が熱くなりました!
ただ・・・別に2次創作を押し付ける意味ではありませんが、ハセヲと志乃派でゲームやってクリアしたもんで、
ああ、やっぱりG.U.のヒロインはアトリなんだな、と後半の本当の意味で強くなったアトリを見て、そう思いました。
言い換えれば、ゲームでは個人的に苦手なタイプのキャラだったので、本作品で好きになりましたw
このクオリティで次世代据え置き機で、また遊んでみたいと思いました。
ゴッドオブウォー1、2の例もありますし、HDリマスターされたらどの機種でも買ってまたG.U.の物語をプレイしてみたいです。
CC2のスタッフさん、見てましたら、Linkでシリーズ終わらせないで、これからも.hack//続けて下さいますように
お願いします! m(_ _)m
