As a Digimon lover, had to grab the first movie's OST

an amazing album. I love the music, and it brings back great memories from the film, just what i wanted

I waited such a LONG time to get my hands on this soundtrack-and let me tell you people- IT'S WORTH THE WAIT!
Every track is upbeat and energetic, and if they're not funky tunes from the Digimon TV show (track 12-Here We Go!, track 9-Run Around etc) then they're some of the best pop/punk anthems to ever top the charts a few years back (track 2-Allstar, track 7-The Impression That I Get).
Even if you ignore the Digimon factor that will endear this CD to fans, the music is still really good and definetly worth a listen!

This music really does rule! The music in it is fast, exciting and bearable. The tunes like "Going digital" and "run around" are absolutley ace! Even if you think the show is terrible you'll still love the music. The sole exception being the Digimon Theme tune. There are only so many times you can actually bear to listen to it. But otherwise its essential if you love music and Digimon or just one or the other!!

Now, I should explain that usually I'm biased against 'song albums'. You see these things everywhere. For those unaware of the term, song albums are essentially mixtapes of the various songs the film-makers shoved into the film for about five seconds to justify putting popular songs on an album that they can reap massive rewards from. It's cheap, low, and exploitative.

However, this is an exception for two reasons. One, the majority of the songs were composed specially for the TV series, and two the songs that weren't fit into the general tone of the album extremely well.

First, the general pop songs that weren't composed for the TV series. These are 'All Star', 'The Rockafeller Skank (Short Edit)', 'Kids In America', 'One Week', 'The Impression That I Get', 'All My Best Friends Are Metalheads', 'Nowhere Near' and 'Spill'. As I said, the tracks from lesser known bands (Spill, Nowhere Near, Impression, Metalheads and One Week) sound so close to the TV songs in terms of tone, sound and instrumentation that they might have well have been composed for the show. Kudos is due to the music editor or whoever suggested them, although the fact that a few of the bands were signed to Maverick Records (the label who released this album) makes it smell of a label taking an opportunity to promote their acts. Breaking the sound established in the rest of the album is 'All Star', 'Rockafeller' and 'Kids'. The first two are understandable, the producers secured the license to use two hugely popular songs of the time, so of course they were going to use them no matter what. A very minor quibble is that the version of The Rockafeller Skank on this album is the better known Short Edit, while those who have heard the original 6 minute version know that the film used the original 6 minute edit (parts such as the looping guitar riff when Koromon is eating the food and is attacked by the cat aren't present in the Short Edit). While it is understandable that they'd go with the shorter and more popular edit for the album, if I were in charge I would be true to the version used in the movie and use the longer one. Like most songs on this album, LEN's cover of Kids in America is very much 'love-it-or-hate-it', and unlike most of the other songs here, I'm in the latter category for this one. The obnoxious synths used and the overly nasal lead vocal don't do it for me, then again someone on TvTropes described it as 'oddly epic', so there are people who like this one. As for All Star, it is a great song, but I'm sure others would agree it's use in Shrek has bound it to that movie so firmly that it's hard to listen to it without thinking of that movie too.

Then there's the TV songs, namely 'Digi-Rap', 'Hey Digimon', 'Run Around', 'Here We Go' and the five bonus tracks 'Digimon Theme', 'Change Into Power', 'Let's Kick It Up', 'Going Digital' and 'Strange'. The lack of titles for these five have resulted in confusion over what their true titles are, I've seen 'Change Into Power' called 'We Got The Power', 'Strange' called 'Stranger' and so on. Again, whether you will enjoy these songs is solely down to personal preference and opinion. For those of you who are solely attached to the Japanese songs and reject anything else, these will come as nothing short of blasphemy. However, it must be admitted whatever your view that it was completely unexpected for these songs to appear on album. Written as 'insert songs', i.e. used at specific moments of the show to lift them, it was almost unheard of at the time to hear of songs like these being put onto CDs (outside of Pokemon: 2.B.A. Master, but that show's popularity meant anything with the brand name on it would sell). As for the songs themselves, they're somewhat mixed. Songs like Let's Kick It Up, Run Around and Going Digital are very fast paced, energetic and completely appropriate for the context. However, you also have songs like Hey Digimon. While in the movie it was used well for a scene of upbeat hope and happiness, in the show it was used in very dramatic moments, where it's laid-back cheeriness was unbelievably inappropriate. Likewise, Strange doesn't register or stand out nearly enough to work, and Change Into Power suffers from similar problems. Here We Go is in the middle of these two extremes, not as memorable as the former group but isn't as disposable as the latter lot. It was also used very memorably in the movie, the 'oh-oh-ho-ohhh' vocals fitting the scene of racing off to begin the final confrontation brilliantly.

Finally, we come to the main theme. The catchy techno song is represented twice on the album, kicking off both the whole album in 'Digi-Rap' and the bonus tracks in 'Digimon Theme'. Again, I wouldn't argue with anyone who hates this song. It is very repetitive and, as lovers of the original Japanese point out, it's not 'Butterfly' and therefore can die in a fire. However, it comes in very near the top of my favourite TV themes of all time. While I will admit the extended treatment given to it in Digimon Theme does rather exacerbate the repetitiveness, when used in the show no other theme causes more excitement or joy than this theme. Whenever a Digimon digivolves, this theme gives it the sense that, as the quote from Bad Boys II goes (expletives aside), "stuff just got real". While Brave Heart (the Japanese digivolving theme) is a better as a song, when heard in the show it just doesn't have the same sense of excitement as the dub theme.

The low point of the album by far, though, is 'Digi-Rap'. A horrible remix of the theme, it adds rap verses in between the main 'Digimon, digital monsters, Digimon are the champ-yuns!' chorus. While the rap parts are competently performed by the laughably named MC Pea Pod (there's a name that screams 'I only do kids parties'), the lyrics are just godawful. While 'The Rimmer Song' from Red Dwarf would find every conceivable rhyme for 'Rimmer' for comedic effect, here they began thinking up puns based on 'digi' sounding like 'did you' spoken very fast, then gave up and began adding 'digi' to random words, resulting in awful phrases like 'digidestiny', 'digifight' and, most painfully, 'digisave the day'. It doesn't help that the digichorus is repeated even more digioften than in Digimon Theme, so here it's even more digirepetitive. Clearly this song was digiwritten purely so Digimon would have an answer to the insanely digipopular Pokemon song 'PokeRap', while completely digimissing the point that the popularity of that digisong was purely down to attempting to digilearn the lyrics, like 'Yakko's World' from Animaniacs. See? Randomly digiadding the word 'digi' everywhere does not make you digicool or digiclever.

Overall, for fans of Digimon (the English version at least) this is a must have, the only opportunity you're ever going to get to hear the dub's insert songs outside of watching low quality TV rips of the show (the only way to see the dub since there was only a half-hearted attempt at releasing a few episodes in DVD before they stopped). If you've never seen the show, then this is a compilation that expertly sums up the music of the turn of the millennium, when all pop music sounded like this album. If you have any nostalgia for that era, I recommend it. It could well be a fun blast from the past, but be warned there's a possibility it's not to your taste.

This C.D. has the best music ever written. It has the good old classics (including the Digimon T.V. show intro and 'hey digimon')and some mint new ones (including 'change into power' and the Digi-rap shown at the beginning of the movie and 'kids in America') which I must has to be the most supreme film ever created (animated or not animated). This C.D. is a must have for all the Digimon fans out there and even for a none Digimon fan.

This is an awesome soundtrack!If you like rocking tunes and high-energy songs, you'll love this! It's a non-stop, adrenaline-pumping ride through the songs of the Digimon world, and of rock & pop in general! If you like the Digimon tunes, then this is a CD you won't want to miss out on!

There's some great tunes on here, although an odd track ruins the flow, but then it is for a kid's show/film, after all. It matches the film's tone fine enough.

3.0 out of 5 stars DIGIMON THE MOVIE SOUNTRACK
Reviewed in Mexico on 5 March 2018
Por allá del año 2000 existía una guerra en el terreno de las animaciones japonesas enfocadas en monstruos. Comenzó con la popular serie y videojuegos de Pokemon y los tamagotchis. Pronto la formula de mascotas digitales se hizo mundialmente popular y por supuesto siempre aparecen los clones o copias que buscan hacerse un lugar a costa de los mas populares. Sin embargo muchas veces existen copias que pese a tener la misma formula logran destacar e incluso aportar mejoras a lo que existe en ese momento. Esa serie fue Digimon.

Desde su estreno en América logro un rotundo éxito, apoyado por la cadena FOX KIDS se distribuyo por toda latinoamerica y sudamerica llegando a rivalizar en popularidad con Pokemon.

Debido a los altos raitings de televisión se decide comercializar para los cines la película de Digimon en América, dándole gran publicidad y mercadotecnia y apoyando con el soundtrack mas "americanizado" que su parte en japón.

Pese a que el álbum tiene variedad, la falta de grupos o artistas conocidos y canciones poco pegajosas hacen que el mismo se escuche raro o poco convincente ademas de que las adaptaciones gringas de los temas oficiales de digimon son malitas, al final termina por ser un álbum mas de relleno para la película que no logra adaptarse del todo con la animación.

5.0 out of 5 stars A rocking compilation of early 2000s rock
Reviewed in the United States on 27 October 2011
The soundtrack to the 2000 anime movie Digimon the Movie is a very great blend of late 1990s early 2000s rock. All of the non-show related songs can be elsewhere, but don't let that distract you from buying it. This soundtrack does a very nice job of exposing one to some of the lesser known rock artist like Showoff and putting them next to some of the bigger names in the business like Smash Mouth and the Barenaked Ladies. All of the track here goes great next to each other with the exception of Fatboy Slim's "Rockafeller Shank" which is an awesome slice of 1990s Electronica. The physical copy which is a must have for any true Digimon Adventure (which is the name of the first two seasons in Japans) because it includes more songs then the digital copy (which is an extreme rarity) all of them are featured on the show.
My favorite tracks are: "Kids in America" by Len (which to me is the best version of this song), "Run Around" and "Going Digital" both by Jason Radford, "Here We Go" by Jason Gochin, and "Change Into Power" and "Let's Kick It Up" both by Paul Gordon (and the last five are featured in Digimon Adventure). Overall a really solid released for a very solid movie and anime series.
