Tokyo Revengers

Better than expected. The ending has issues mainly due to overpowered characters becoming weaker at the end to smooth over plot points and the inverse happening. Plus the film seems to want to set up for a sequel but is a little too loose on it. I am sure the manga or comics this is based off of is probably better or was it an anime or something like that and then I was like oh yeah.

Is this movie worth watching? Maybe.

How was the plot? Great.

Was the budget enough? Big yes.

What is this movie saying about our world? Nothing.

What is your emotional response to this movie? Joy.

What did this movie make me feel? Entertained.

What moments, character, or ideas resonated with you while watching this movie? The action. And sci-fi.

The movie is 3x more brutal than the anime in my opinion some of the fighting scenes in the movie didn't even happen in the anime the movie is more about action while the anime is about humor.

Japanese Movie "Tokyo Revengers" is the live-action adaption of the popular manga series with the same name.

The overall movie has a nice atmosphere and the fans of High&Low would probably love this film as well. It has plenty of great fighting scenes that were well executed and well-choreographed. The performances were all masterful too, but the main lead was especially enjoyable, funny, emotional, and diverse. The dynamics between the cast were also pretty strong and that helped creating the right team environment that the movie needed to promote right from the start.

However, and even though the film is well made and the camera work is brilliant, the story felt like it only stretched the surface, like something was missing as the movie was moving towards the final showdown. The ending was pretty rushed too.

So, overall, 7 out of 10.

I wasn't expecting much but this was a massive let down. The first couple of minutes of the movie had some scenes that was so bad it was funny and I genuenly laughed but other than that I was bored to death. Most of the character design looked like terrible cosplays. Only a cople of characters looked good.

Live action adaption of manga with the same title, this movie stays true to its original source. Of course, duration of movie has its limitation, so many details in manga didn't make it to the live action version. But still, this movie really worth watching whether you already read manga version or not.

Good movie 8/10.
