I started watching #ShinKamenRider (2023 film) and 40 minutes in I'm pretty lukewarm on it. It's fun to look at some of the time, but the editing can be jarring and doesn't flow well in the action scenes. The campy special effects are also a bit distracting, more so than in Anno's Godzilla or Ultraman. (cntd.)
@earth_walker@mindly.socialMost importantly the story of Shin Kamen Rider is not very compelling, I feel like it's a very watered down version of a more interesting story. I'm being harsh because my expectations were high, but I feel like you need to be an Anno apologist to enjoy this film which is not a good look for a #film that could introduce young people to a classic #tokusatsu franchise.
