This would top them. This movie is absolutely beautiful. It fully encaptures the awkwardness of the anime, and shows each characters personality incredibly well. It would get ten stars, if they didnt miss out on an absolute fantastic opportunity for an ending line. The last scene should have been kusuo saying yare yare.
Teruhashi : too many hand movements, lacks the usual confidence anime Teruhashi has, but narcissism is still intact - just plain irritating.. seems r----ded.. will make you say "stfu fake Teruhashi"
Aren : moves like a worm who've just been sprinkled with salt
Nendo: good resemblance, just wish he's way taller
Kaido: his weird movements would have worked if the camera was closer and was following him along, but it's awkwardly far and he's just moving around inside the shot
Went over the top on things that could've been subtle, did not go crazy enough with this that should have been over the top. Would have worked with better direction.
Kasuo's dad is on point though.

I have seen many live-action so I think this movie is good if you compare it to others. I mean the purpose of this movie is to be a comedy, maybe it has some details that are good in the comic and anime but not good outside. The quality of the jokes is medium. The crew only has 1 hour so I think it is okay, and I think they have tried their best to follow the original with some of the creative so 1 more point for that. I have seen several live-action changes the story so much that I can not even recognize the story.
I have not watched the anime yet, nor had any other background information on the story. Therefore, I can't say if this movie follows the anime perfectly or it was a disastrous live action. For what is worth, it was kind of enjoyable, though it was so fast paced and idiotic at some points that lost the good qualities that this movie actually had. Yamazaki is back again with another student character, this time though, with super powers and bright pink hair. I do like him as an actor, to be honest, and it was the only reason why I picked up this movie. But, in here, he's just okay. Not bad, but not outstandingly good. Maybe the script didn't help him, however. The other actors were okay as well, even though that girl did overreact at some points. The plot, on the other hand, tried too hard to make the movie anime like and some of the jokes ended up to be just silly comical scenes. Unfortunately, I doupt that I'll remember even watching this movie.
If you a fan of the manga or the anime please do yourself a favor that is save your time and money and not spent it on watching this load of hot turd cause watching this movie is like watching an extremely talkative Kusuo who hate coffee jelly to the guts or a boring ass Nendou or a so over the top version of Teruhashi to the point that it make the anime counterpart of her seem bearable and if all of that not a big middle finger from the director Yuichi Fukuda who I highly praised for the excellent job at adapting Gintama into live action movie to the source material and the fan then I don't know what else.
