Meitantei Conan Movie 08: Ginyoku no Magician

Once again, Kaitou Kid crosses swords with Conan Edogawa in this annual installment of the Detective Conan movie franchise. After receiving a letter from the thief, famous actress Juri Maki seeks the help of private detective Kogorou Mouri to protect the Star Sapphire—the "Jewel of Destiny," said to represent faith, fate, and hope. Thinking he has deciphered Kid's riddle, Kogorou personally shows up to the newly constructed space theater where Juri is acting in the play "Josephine" in order to catch Kid in the act.

The next day, Conan and the gang are invited by Juri to her holiday home, to celebrate the thwarting of Kid's plan and the success of the play. However, their triumph crumbles when a murder occurs during the flight there. Although unintentional, this sets off a series of events that escalate to catastrophic results. Conan and Kid, unlikely allies that they are, must work together to save both their friends and every other passenger aboard the plane.

The art was a lot better and neat than in the previous movies, I liked ...

Detective Conan: Magician of the Silver Sky is a very interesting movie. The second film to feature Kaito Kid has him play a much more prominent role here than he did in The Last Wizard of the Century. But does more always mean better? Let's find out.

One of the movie's most interesting aspects is how it takes three different scenarios and combines them into one, cohesive story where the elements in one part carry on into the next.

Detective Conan Movies Rewatch Before Watching Movie 26: Movie 8

This was the first stumble in the movie franchise.

The movie is saved by the entire second half of the sequence, where the movie successfully executed an exciting plane landing sequence involving our beloved cast. The plane landing sequence was very enjoyable to watch, and it single-handedly lifted the movie to be somewhat entertaining.

I was disappointed with almost everything else. Kaito Kid's code this time was not that impressive, and the motive of the code made the entire first half of the movie irrelevant. The murder case felt tacked onto the movie in a disconnected way, which ...
