Tokyo Revengers

Disclaimer: I have not read the manga or watched the anime of the same name.

I grew up on Shonens and this is basically a Shonen movie, therefore I like.

My inner-hero was well pleased with this film.

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.

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.

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.

This could be better with the idea of time traveling. The beginning part was good i motivated to see the rest of the movie. But the rest of the movie wasn't as good. The leading character was really annoying. A clumsy boy without any special capability. How can a girl love someone like him.
