A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

As a completely nutty Bionicle fan who has managed to collect all the comics and most of the products as well as being a true member of the Kanoka club, I was looking forward to seeing the only Bionicle film I had not yet viewed. Of course, I already knew the plot line through reading the comics and the story's but nevertheless thanks to Greg Farshteys imaginative brain this still managed to dazzle me. When you've got a theme like Bionicle, and they make a straighttovideo film , the chances are your parents are not going to rate this film highly. But I think that these 3 films are completely underrated in that the animation is sweetly edited and the story lines are superb. Bionicle 3:web of shadows is the most popular of the Bionicle films in that it uses the greatest bionicle adventures theme as a storyline and that it's animation manages to capture an atmosphere so eerie it could even surpass the PG ratings. Bionicle 2 is still the best crafted film in terms of editing and the mask of lights is the most "fun" but this one contains the best storyline in my opinion.As for me, I can't wait for Bionicle 4 to come out as it should involve the immense Piraka and the beautiful Voya Nui and the Bionicle Legends in my opinion is the best. Can't wait for that and overall good film. The Visorak rock! The Toa Hordika Rock! Roodaka does not rock!

Bionicle was great after watching it and while the show just keeps you wanting to watch it again and again The character detail are good and this time i finally get to see a huge scale battle well its actually the part where the 4 Toa Hordika fight with more than thousands of Visorak and when there was a great explosion when the legendary Kitanggu fell from the tower Overall the animation is great,the environment the character details are nicely done and the movie is good as it follows most parts of the book well I'm not really sure of that because i don't read them but thats n ot the point what I'm also curious ids that why are people voting the movie but their votes aren't good enough since overall its 5.0 out of 10 i mean come on its a good movie isn't it?

Bionicle Mask of Light, Bionicle2 Legends of Metru Nui, and now Bionicle Web of Shadows. This third one wasn't as good as the second, but certainly was better than the first. When the movie begins it seems like another Bionicle movie, but this time we have some flashback scenes on top of the moving rocks part. This confused me at first, since the last two movies had begun with only the rocks. The movie starts before the very end of the second and Makuta's defeat. This can be quite a bad start for someone who hasn't seen the prequel. Plus there is no explanation this time of what are matoran, rahi are no longer referred to as Rahi-beast which gives no clue to what rahi are. After the somewhat odd start, it seems like the movie (differently than the others) keeps the story stuck to what the books say. The new character design though is much better, although Bionicle 2 showed Vakama's feelings, none of them showed the whole Vakama, the dark side was never seen. In this movie we see Vakama's bad, and good side. Now, comparing the villains in this new movie with the rest I must say that Roodaka is much badder than Makuta, and the vishorak are a greater threat than Nhidiki, Krekka, and the Rhakshis. What makes this movie not as good as its prequel is that not much happens, the whole thing is or too slow or too fast. The movie ends with one big question mark: The Toa are taking the matoran to safety because Metru nui is not safe because Makuta might be awake, but they know it's awake and might follow them... why not just add some minutes to the film and capture Makuta all over again? Contrary to what my comments may express I thing Bionicle3 is an excellent movie, and fits in perfectly with the story. I hope there's a fourth one, and that in that one he Toa Metru and Nuva both go back to Metru Nui, like the books say.

I enjoy watching the Bionicle series of movies myself and this one was no exception.The Story Continues where the second one left off. The Toa Metru return to Metru Nui to rescue the remaining Matoran from the ruins of their once great city. But they find that the Archives, a sort of museum or zoo, was destroyed, letting loose all of the creatures. Worse yet, Visorak spiders have taken up residence in the city under the lead of Sidorak and his viceroy/fiancée Roodaka, who has plans of her own. The Toa a quickly captured by the Visorak and mutated into Toa Hordika, but before they are destroyed by the Visorak, the Rahaga, turaga/rankshi mix, save them. Their mission now is to find a legendary creature that can turn them back to normal and patch up their unity before they are separated forever.The Animation in this movie is better than the others, especially in the face department. The Character's seem more alive than ever, which can be a good or a bad thing depending on what you think of the Masks. The downside is there is still lag at spots. The characters in this look more like their toy counterparts with the exception of perhaps Sidorak, whom I haven't really seen the toy.This movie also has an interesting mix of action and comedy. The Le-characters (the green ones) still provide the comic relief, while keeping the dark tone. Overall it is dark without being scary as to not frighten the children.The only problem I have with this movie is the continuity. While I understand not all of the adventure could fit in one movie, they, like in the second movie, skipped over various adventures and plot points like how they built the airships and the origins of the Rahaga and even the Mask of Light. They treat it as if it didn't happen. That is why I'm lowering it from 9 to eight.
