Finally, a Naruto movie that felt right

siderite

All Naruto movies are pretty nice, but they usually have this emotional outburst of loyalty and desire to protect, followed by annoyingly inspiring shouted speeches that are just too much to take. This film has very little of that, it starts with an interesting premise, continues to the end in a pretty straightforward way and then it ends with a bang.

The ending could have been better, I grant you that, but it wasn't awful and Naruto didn't just breeze through with some jutsu or another, he actually had to fight it out.

Bottom line: not the best Naruto movie, but one that I liked.

score 8/10
