Watched the movie in Shinjuku last Thursday. The best action climax of all movies in my eyes. Music was really good too and Rody V2 has hella drip

Saw it in Kochi City, enjoyable movie. Despite the ending fight feeling tacted-on, the visuals were jawdropping good. The main villian was fun but underdeveloped, something that can apply even more so for his lackeys. As a MHA fan, it scratched all the itches that it need to.

I saw a clip on Twitter of the Yutaka Nakamura fight. Looks insane - no wonder we haven't seen him in ages.

Just watched the films in cinema here in HK and boy, this movie slapped! Incredible action sequences with lacklustre story, just your typical Shounen film in all fairness but the audiovisual experience and the whole romantic idea of two introduced characters was pretty amusing, imo.

All Might to Dark Might - That's possibly the silliest idea, xD. Movie 3 for me was too uneventful in periods and Movie 2 had that whole transfer AFO power but this didn't have much of that, which was helpful truly. I was hoping we'd see some more creativity and depth put into the villains though, the Mafia background could've added so much more to the story but it just ended up being there for the sake of being there.

This was like the Stampede movie of the OP franchise with fewer grand battles and epic moments. I don't know why I'm comparing it this way but it just struck me when the ED credits started rolling in. Generous 7/10, super feast for the eyes and overall half-decent experience.

Deku needs to learn more states. St Louis ain't even a state but that combo attack was dope. The end fight was awesome for a few minutes. Everything else was meh. My favorite movie is still Two Heroes. Every movie after that haven't came close to the bar it set as far as the last fight goes imo.

Awesome movie that isn't entirely important for the main plot of the story but is a fun little side quest. Good watch.

This is the only MHA movie that I've been able to catch in theaters... and, honestly, I'm a bit disappointed about that 'cause I feel like out of the 4 movies, this was the weakest one overall.

It wasn't bad, but considering that this might be the last MHA movie we ever get, I was expecting more out of it.

I've seen all MHA films on the big screen (with the exception of the first one) and as always, I had a great time!

These films really know how to get you on the edge of your seat and how to do explosive and intense climaxes with spectacular animation and this one is no exception.

While I don't think I would say that this is the best MHA film (the 3rd is probably my favourite), I still had a blast with this and the side story with Julio and Anna was touching.

If you're a MHA fan, you're probably going to really enjoy this one.

It's sad to know (having finished season 7) that there is only one season left of this series and this is probably the last film too. I've had a great time with the franchise since 2019. MHA, you will be missed.

9/10.

They could have done more to build the relationship of Julio and Deku. This was fun though.

I haven't updated in years but now I have changed that. I'll be free soon.

I really wasn't immersed nor felt any real drama from the new characters
they played it really safe and didn't bother to explore the characters that well for the pay off they think they gave us
as for the animation... apart from the last fights... there was no continuous fight scenes and they really had to sacrifice some fight scenes to be done offscreen. it's a stark contrast to movie 3 where it was all action nonstop
dark might is more annoying and caricature of "mafia" rather than anything deep. his mimicry of all might was also shallow and lacked better philosophy of why All Might is a symbol of peace
imagine deku, bakugo, and shoto being those apple fanboys shitting on android. opinions of the bias is no credible wisdom

BUT THAT LAST FIGHT ANIMATION THO 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

ALL IS FORGIVEN. WOULD REWATCH SLOP IF I HAD MONEY, JUST FOR THAT.

also did they try to make tsukuyomi part of the big 3 🤣🤣🤣 GET OUT 🗣🗣🗣 him being saved by hawks is the cherry on top 😭😭 bro can't be in the inner circle.

For the longest time MHA movies were inferior to its TV counterpart (I watch them all in cinema). But this movie is actually the first one that, dare I say, at least equivalent to the TV version. This is very high compliment from me because I love the TV version so much, especially its latest season.

I think the highlight is the dialogueless fight scene, in which Deku and Baku stop yelling and just go along the flow with Todoroki. Just let the audiovisual department does its job, and you can trust Studio Bones for this.
