Shin Ultraman Anonymous 01/13/2023 (Fri) 16:05:45 No. 1995
Yoyo, saw this movie in theaters about two days ago or so, and I wanted to gather the opinions of anons who also saw this movie. I personally like how professional the characters were even with all the crazy shit happening around them. They didn't get overly dramatic or anything you'd see in an American movie. Basically they would just say "oh that happened, what now?" which is the level of professionalism expected in real life scenarios. Basically I thought the movie was really well done and well written. That said you have to know what to expect, this isn't a movie about explosions and high octane action. It's a movie very much reliant on its story, characters and general world building, basically this is a movie that was written with a more grounded tone rather than something like Fast and the Furious. Honestly in that regard. I find it to be a breath of fresh air since it's not having the characters be overly dramatic or over the top, and the action is actually not a mess of explosions which is another thing I liked about the movie. Please give Shin Ultraman a watch when you can. I'm not sure when it'll be released digitally, but it's very much worth watching. At least in my opinion.
>>1995 Im a fan of Ultraman. And i think it was great. It does has fanservice for old fans but it does not rely solely on this, is basicaly takes fictional characters and put them on real life scenarios. If you can watch also Shin Godzilla. It has a different tone but it is even better in some other aspects. Looking forward to Shin Kamen Rider too.
>>1998 Agreed, I had a very pleasant movie going experience. Another interesting thing about it is that you don't need prior Ultraman knowledge to enjoy it since I enjoyed it despite not being familiar with Ultraman at all.
>>1995 I avoided it since Hideaki Anno injected politics in his Shin Godzilla movie, which was a boring movie full of childish takes on politics and a infantile take on human behavior. I expected the same from this Shin Ultraman. I may pirate it when it is available. But I'm not giving money to anything with Hideaki involved.
