As usual, Kid being evil is deceiving.

[spoiler]
For Sunflower exhibition, the old rich guy bought an art of one of Van Gogh's Sunflower Collection in NY with huge price. Kid did came to steal the arts, but with a person (criminal?)'s request (Conan did notice it's weird for Kid to steal art instead of jeweries), but he also protected them with his old helper's request. The 7 "samurais" of the old business man included several people that involves with the background of Sunflower Collection. A guy was from a family (related to the background story) with a goal to collect Sunflower art with his brother, who died from him killing by accident. Then a lady who greatly loves the collection cannot accept how "fake" the two collections was the main guest seiyuu, Nana Eikura (also the main girl of Toshokan Senkou live action movie), who was the criminal. The rich girl is busy accompanying with her uncle because of promoting the exhibition. Ran also helped out with her usual kick when Kid and Coan's brief collaboration. There's also an old lady meeting in a museum is also involving with the background story of the collection (and that old guy who helps the kid is the witness of the tragic love). Wow, that police from NY, also part of samurai, is very strong in emotion about Kid being a terrorist, which was set by the real criminal of the movie.

The short notice for next year's movie showing two traitors in Black Organization?? (Gin, with disbelieve tone, mentioned Bourbon and another member that I forgot)

Another fine movie for this franchise (although I feel movie 18 was better). It has all the fundamentals down: appearance of most of the supporting cast (like last year, the studio managed not to make their presence appear shoehorned, which is a plus), the obligatory Professor's quiz, lots of action, a case and some cheesy drama.

As for some rants:

Just watched this in my local theater.

I must say I'm quite impressed with how they used red herrings as if Kid is a bad guy in this movie. To only realized that Kid is actually preventing the damage of the paintings.

Also Haibara x Conan moments are a big plus to me lol. That scene where Haibara is constantly worrying about Kudo's safety... or the scene with that granny.. and that post-end credit scene... P.S. Haibara also did not really deny her feelings that was pointed out by the granny about Conan, although I know this is totally not canon, but it's good to fans like me~

So yeah to me this movie is very enjoyable and satisfying!

it feels a bit like reheasing ideas that have been used before, such as another plane crash, kid become shinichi, i forgot another one because i only watch it once in theater.

despite that, this movie has a background story from a side character, which is quite rare in conan movie. and that ai-conan moment though.

overall, it's average. gonna review it later when fansub version appear

hope the next movie can give another Raven Chaser excitement

I'm totally disappointed, this is the first movie without a murder case, and the case didn't make sense to me, it was totally stupid, especially Kaito Kid, why the heck didn't he tell Conan directly in the message instead of using a riddle?!
Also, they didn't explain the truth behind what happened with the 2 billions that flew off the window! what the heck!

One thing I liked though (and it could be only me), Agasa used to have a childish side in his character and acted more like a comic relief character in the early episodes of the series (including the first few movies), but later on he turned to a Santa Claus-like character, you could call it a development but I don't like it to be honest.
Anyway, he kinda returned to his old personality in this movie, which is good in my opinion.

Detective Conan movie 19...., it has been another amazing ride. The movie was really good, but it was far from being the best. That being said, the movie is the highest grossing one in the entire franchise, so it was well received for the most part.

As always, my major irritation and dislike in these movies albeit in this one, it was really, really small in comparison to movie 18, was Ran. I do love her as a character, I just don't like how they shoehorn her into the story because she is the main female lead.

Sonoko: Ran save us!

I'll pretend this was a mistranslation or something of that sort. Unless someone can explain to me how the fuck Sonoko envisioned Ran saving the plane.

Kid & Conan: Lend us your strength!
What is reinforced concrete? But then again, we need to be reminded that Ran has a black belt and is not completely useless...., wch I would be fine with. Let her be a normal 16 year high school girl, thats what I love about her.

As I continue on with this story, the more and more I'm starting to love Haibara. And I wish there was a legit chance for her, cuz at this point I do find her more endearing than Ran. Finally, either Sonoko has grown on me, or something was different about her this movie. She normally annoys me to no ends, but in this movie she was really lovable. I had to do a double take at times.

All in all, it was a good story and movie. The only negative that really affected my total enjoyment was the villain and their motives. The motive was fucking retarded...., like I had to facepalm. Also, why Kid just didn't go to Conan and be like "dude, shit is going down, lend me a hand" instead of riddles and shit is also retarded, but it didn't really bother me as much as the good parts of the movie was enough for me to enjoy myself.

Lastly, the adventure continues with movie 20 (trailer at the end), and now the long, long wait for release and then subs begins. I'm hoping we get movie 20 subbed faster this time and I'm expecting this one to be a step up from the recent movies. Can't wait to see what they do with the Organization.

I am a huge DC fan, but I'm a bit disappointed about this movie
the mystery bit was too less this time
most of the 7 samurais were poor characters, not enough depth like the other movies
and the criminal revealing part was so short which I was really disappointed, I wished the criminal would use some cool tricks to commit the crime, so when Conan's deduction would be interesting
the suspense at the very end was not as good as the previous movies, still pretty good

oh well, I'm still excited for movie 20 though!!

Honestly, I felt that this wasn't such a good Conan movie. I enjoyed it but it wasn't like some of the other movies.
Over 19 years of animation, it was surprising to see a couple of really misshaped art. There was this one scene of Haibara's face that looked like she had a butt chin xD
The culprits weren't that interesting and had little impact on the movie. I really enjoyed Kaito Kid and Conan together though. The best part was when Kogoro dived into the water to get Conan. That was so cute because we're so used to Kogoro hitting him and not helping him out of trouble with praise xD
Nonetheless, I will never stop watching Conan! Next movie is going to be epic because it has the Black Organization as the main culprits again!

Most disappointing movie for me. Gave it a 6/10 after an internal debate.
There wasn't enough action for me. Maybe because my expectations were high but I felt that the movie lacked more KID-ness. Lost Ship in the Sky was far more entertaining.
The culprit/s in this movie was also really weak. They didn't have an elaborate enough plan to warrant a movie.
Hope the next movie is worth the wait. I was having high expectations from this... since KID is in it.

Much better than the last movie, IMO. It's always fun seeing Kaito Kid impersonating Shinichi. Wasn't expecting some Mission: Impossible Rogue Nation-type action--that was really pretty awesome. I'm curious at what Sonoko thinks about Shinichi now, when she saw him (Kid) fly out of a freaking plane with no chute. I don't think she put two and two together, as far as I can tell.

A nice little Conan x Ai moment there too, one in the museum, and another after the credits.

Yeah, that's one thing I don't get. What was Kid's purpose for the insane amount of money? I assume it was just meant to be a distraction, with 300 Million yen being understandable, since it was the price Jirokichi bought it for, but there's really no reason for 10 billion. All of which, is now blown out the window. I'm actually surprised that the crowd below weren't clamoring for the money that was literally raining bills. I would have totally been like "Hey look, it's Kid!" while grabbing the money while everyone else is occupied.

Also, when did Conan's belt get upgraded to house a 2nd ball? I thought it can only one one at a time like his dart watch?

Well let's forget about all the general ridiculousness Conan pulls, like Shinichi and Kaitou looking exactly the same or the Suzuki Chairman throwing money around for the latest completely nonsensical scheme. The culprits motives made no sense. Kid was acting weirdly too with that money demand. There was no murder case and of the side characters only Azuma and Charlie were explored at all. The action wasn't that good either. All in all it was the first Conan movie I considered giving a 5/10.

This one was lots of fun! I just got the Blue-ray and the visuals and sound were great. This was almost more Kid's movie than Conan's, particularly for the first half when Conan was mainly the watching the action from a distance.

It's also fun to watch the previews after watching the movie - the previews were so full of misdirection and pretty much pure BS that it is hilarious. Everyone needs to keep that in mind for the previews for movie 20...

The extra DVD disc contained previews and two more things - the episode where "Uncle Scrooge" brings in "The Scream" and two other Munch paintings, and also a "Community Service" short in which Conan catches a guy filming a movie from within a theatre and points out that it is a crime. The "Camera Guy" then turns out to be Kid who points out that downloading movies is an even bigger crime. It ends with Conan telling the viewers "Don't steal movies!" LOL

I know right. The only proofs were Kaitou recognised her voice and his assistant found incriminating data on her computer. Third rate mystery. And her motive? HAHAHA! Completely phoned in, ridiculous, irrelevant, and unforeshadowed. Disappointing. I still <3 Conan movies though. <3

The worst DC movie out of the 19. I mean even the TV 2 Hours specials are better than this. Its such a shame. I really enjoy the DC Movies. I love how they always chose a different setting for each movie. But the premise of this one was dull.

Even the final bit with Conan in the water, and everyone is crying out his name similar to the 15 minutes, it just didn't have that kind of impact, even though once again he was saved by his inflatable football belt.

20th Movie I hope is more exciting.

There's even less going on with the characters than in most Detective Conan films. Charlie's the only one with any characterization and that's one-note, repeated too often, and doesn't really go anywhere, especially it's obvious that Kid wasn't the one putting people's lives at risk (as if this series would take a chance like that). And the real culprit doesn't have any character at all!

If I have to be completely neutral, this movie is crap. I gave it 3/5 because KID-sama is at least worth 3 points. The plot sucks. And I'm sure everybody knows that they simply put Kaitou KID in there to milk fangirls' wallets (KaiShin fandom went crazy over it), otherwise I see no reason why the movie sold so well... they made more money with this than the previous movie.

Character wise Conan and Ai are just... not their usual intellectual self. Rather than a detective, Conan felt like an audience at a KID's show. and KID? Super cool (that opening really reminds me of AoT) but also felt OOC at the same time... it's like they built up the suspense just for the sake of building it and then BAM! Super weak and lame closure. And don't get me started on that girl's motive for destroying the painting... geez. I do love the Conan x Ai moments though. Also loved the theme song, the lyrics was perfect (the KaiShin fandom loved it, but I can see why the general audience would find the song unfitting).

In terms of the Kaitou KID movies, plot-wise this one was definitely worst despite KID had the most screen time in this one. Counting only the KID movies, my favourite is definitely 14 (love the humour), then 3, 8, 10, with 19 as the last one because the plot was just... irk.

I'll shamefully admit that I watched this Sunflower movie THREE times in TOKYO last year because I'm a hopeless Kaitou KID fangirl... Well, voice acting was excellent as usual so it was totally worth it. But I'll also admit that I fall asleep for maybe 15 minutes during the third run when KID wasn't on the screen, lol. Plot was simply boring at best.

Thought it was interesting to note, that based off the hundreds of millions that Jirokichi bought the painting for with little care, it would seem as if he was worth billions if not tens of billions of dollars.

It has always been obvious that Sonoko's family were very rich, but I haven't seen any evidence that they were billionaires, at least outside of the movies anyway.

Seems a little unrealistic to me.

I love that ending song! Anyway, this movie was decent but more on the average side. It was not particularly interesting, there was one murder which was placed to the side, and I ont even remember most of the new cast's faces anymore.
Kaito is one of my favorite characters in this show since he adds twists to it :) I knew one of those Kid cards have to be fake. Also love it when Kid and Conan team up.
On the other hand, I'm so tired of Ran going "Conan-kun! Conan-kun!" and the power of love and shit.
The only part I liked in this movie was the KaiShin teamwork and finally a somewhat competent person on the security force, inspector Charlie. The culprit was so predictable I was suspicious of them from the plane ride already. I wish Kaito had more scenes in this and I wish the detective boys were not present in the movie because they serve no purpose. Can't wait for the next movie with Bourbon and Akai in it!

Big letdown after coming off movie 18. The true villain was really weak and pathetic. Most of the movie villains have more depth to them. She was pathetic.

"I really love Van Gogh too much so I bombed a plane and a museum and nearly killed hundreds of people to destroy his paintings because I just love Van Gogh too much."

I mean that's just weaksauce.

Conan REALLY should have called Ran after the plane crash to tell her that it was KID in New York and on the plane and not him. Good work there pal.

The Kid parts in the movie were good, but it didn't really save the movie for me. 5/10

1. Who was Charlie talking to on the payphone and did the parking lot meeting go done?
2. Kid sent cryptic message(s) so only certain people (Conan?) would be able to figure it out.
3. I thought someone disguised as kid was trying to frame Kid. Didn't they have a similar evil kid stealing painting or something else in the manga or other movie?
4. Agasa got a ticket but was not shown at the museum, why?
5. How did Kid get the painting into the hotel? Nice touch with room 1412=kid.
6. I thought the guy Ji was impersonating was kid or a bad guy.
7. I thought Charlie was a bad guy.
8. I thought the kid cards would be discovered as fake because the drawing of kid had a defect. I think they did the fake kid card thing in the manga were the drawing was fake.
9. Spoof on how shinichi and kaito supposedly look a like.
10. The last super painting in hotel possibly foreshadowing.
11. Why did the guys brother tell him to run after being shot instead of being sent to hospital? There were not witnesses so it could have been discribed as an accident to the paramedics.

I think Conan movies are better when they are focused in the action factor, because that's what differentiates them form the series. Yes, it was obvious that Kaito Kid wasn't the bad guy, but the same movie say that in the first minutes, with Conan saying thigs like probably must be a double of Kid.

This film was largely just kinda there for me. I'm not all that into Kaitou Kid as a character, and the motivation of the culprit felt rather flimsy at best. Artsy fartsy high concept nonsense only there to move the plot along. The reasoning for portraying Kid as more openly malevolent in his heist attempts early on also felt weak. I'd have preferred a better justification or a twist. The action sequences seemed less impactful than usual, the one with the plane early on probably being the best. There were a few nice Ran x Shinichi moments, Ran collapsing in tearful relief after speaking with Shinichi being my favorite part of the entire film, and a baffling Haibara x Conan ship moment involving an old woman. Do these movie writers know that ship ain't happening? Because they should. The movie felt overly long, which is never a good sign. Nor is the fact that I'm more or less already out of things to say about it. Not the best movie to ring in the new year with, but oh well. Generous 6/10.
