Benutzerrezensionen

If you don't like the guy because of his Shoujo-inspired writing (perfectly in line with the way the father of the main Toei Tokus Shotaro Ishinomori envisioned this art, you might want to check out Machineman and Kaiketsu Zubat on that regard) move on and leave the Maestro to his fans like the very person writing this review. I have no idea how in the friggin' hell Inoue has actually got better with the age since in this movie he will make you cry, he will make you laugh and he will make you think in a matter of seconds, but that's what this movie (incredibly enough, better than the already very good Kamen Rider Faiz series) proves. Overrated, overpaid screenwriters from Hollywood with billions of academy awards under their belt and give you nothing in terms of emotional investment need to apply to this as well the masterful Avataro Sentai Donbrothers movie (!) as soon as possible.

Remember Paradise Lost? Well, this one has nothing to do with it. Paradise Regained is like Kamen Rider OOO's 10th anniversary-a sequel that complements the show and reunites the cast many years later. However, I liked what they did with Faiz much more. The fight scenes were better, but there were some downsides, like why make it almost an hour long? The same thing happened with OOO's anniversary. Paradise Regained did have better action, though, and I liked the new suits and effects more. As for character development, it was there, but the movie should've been longer. The pacing felt off to me. Other than that, it checks almost all the boxes for a Kamen Rider movie, and it also feels a bit more adult-oriented than the show.
