Julie Strain is a B movie actress. She really can't bring the actual emotion to the part that would make her a really good actress. She is a beautiful woman, but she acts like she thinks this is the way someone gets mad. While there are times that she does come across as genuine, the very next scene has bad emoting in it. I've heard other voice over actors sound arrogant when they talk about their abilities, but what they do when they act is lose themselves in the character. Should Julie decide that she can actually put herself into the character, her acting will improve. Until then, she'll remain a B actress who is better known for being beautiful and sensual, which there is really nothing bad about that. She does have a huge career and is a respectable personality. The rest of the movie runs pretty well, but is a little disappointing in the increasing number of fade to blacks that occur in the last third of the movie, almost as if people were getting tired of making it. All in all, worth the thirteen dollars I paid for it, but it won’t be like the first Heavy Metal, which I’ve watched 20+ times. I’ll probably only watch this twice and put it in the collection in case someone wants to borrow it.Read full review
Great film for fans of the Heavy Metal comic, and of animated sci fi. The characters are interesting and the vehicles are pretty cool. Lots of action and a little twist at the end. Recommend!

This movie was made in the same vein as the original movie "Heavy Metal". This movie had an increased amount of violence between Good and Evil, the depiction of the evil different from the original, however as the evil had taken a new form, the depiction works very well! Once the viewer understands the story the action itself makes the story so much better. I would say this movie is on par with the original movie. The heavy metal music score is very different from the original, yet it goes with this movie rather well. All in all, this movie is an excellent follow up to the original movie and will stand on its own. I liked the movie and only wish there was another coming.

The sound track was great for the movie, fast paced music for fast paced action. I liked the animation, not top notch, but deffinently good. Same as the previous movie, contains graphic violence, nudity, and adult language. So if you like animated psychopaths, bouyant female charcters, blood flying, nudity, and foul language, to a metal sound track this should do the trick. Some people didn't like it as much as the original, I personaly liked it better. It is one whole movie instead of multible shorts as the first one was.
The two main characters are Tyler voiced by Michael Ironside and Julie voiced by Julie Strain. The Animation is fabulous. The heavy metal music choices for the movie I feel were somewhat poorly choiced . The music in the original was engagingand tied into the short stories. Heavy metal 2000 is one story tied together. Maybe in 5 more years a 3rd Heavy Metal movie will appear

A killer addition to The Orig. "Heavy Metal"!! Always great to keep a Saga going as long as possible!! Still hoping for a Part III!! (Anyone listening??) Great for an At-Home Midnite movie double feature session. Or just to throw on for background Party Music. I found this one with a great seller & it arrived in time for a perfect Birthday surprise present!! Can't recommend enough!!
Item was in great shape and worked perfectly

unlike the orginal, this heavy metal is one full legnth movie. As goes with heavy metal, is adorned with a sountrack of hot bands of the time and a violent original plot. But alas his little nudity as expected with the Heavy Metal tradition. :-( Very good movie otherwise, great animation and great soundtrack. Definatly worth watching if you are a fan of Heavy Metal or animated movies.
