Shenmue: The Movie poster
Shenmue: The Movie is a movie that contains all the major events of the first Shenmue. It was released with the Xbox version of Shenmue II in 2002 and is 1 hr 30 mins long.
The point of releasing this movie was for people who never had a Dreamcast due to it being unsuccessful because of the PlayStation 2, that are playing Shenmue II first, to know what happened before Shenmue II. The movie had the game's cutscenes, but put into a suspenseful movie-like form.

Trivia[]
