Don't like musicals, but this is great!

As mentioned I don't like musical genre for films, but this case is the opposite. I couldn't move my attention from the show for the whole 45 minutes.After watching the entire serie we reach this crucial point of the story. We started playing and see duration though about a special chapter like joining a few into a single one.Didn't expected to be a musical, as didn't look at the chapter title before playing it. The first impression was good, as the music introduces well, then is song after song in a nice combination of storytelling and music.It is so the case that personally I like even more than the movie that closes the serie. I fully recommend it.

Not perfect as a good chunk of

And even then I partially blame that more in the inherited sins of Season 4 since while I personally think it's a bit overhated...I still at least agree that it's the weakest season due to a drastically short running time which mean we aren't given enough time to fully develop the new character like Magnus and Abigail, and there's an overall feeling of the story being rushed (looking at you final episode with half of the runtime being an exposition dump). And the special doesn't do a lot to remedy that due to the nature of being a sung through musical (except for MAYBE Magnus), especially with how DIRTY Abigail was handled.But for what it's worth though, the rest of the special was pretty damn good overall I say. Story is admittedly a bit stock what with his it follows the hero's journey almost to a fault but the animation and music gets full marks here, the former being especially impressive since like the series it was done in Flash and is a far cry from the jankiness from Season 1. And I unironically appreciate the redemption arc aspect (especially if you interpret it as an allegory for overcoming toxic masculinity) albeit if you were to okay a drinking hand for every time they said "brother", you would be dead even if I do love me some found family.So yeah Army of the Doomstar is easily my most anticipated film of the year!
