Boruto understanding that having a dad is better than none. Didn't like him wearing Naruto's jacket but his right arm bandage was cool.

Oh and Sarada blush at the end was surprisingly cute. Mitsuki is Orochimaru's son WTF.

Movie was really good. So much fun watching in a packed theater. Lots of laughs and some great action scenes. I wish some of the other characters got more screen time though.

Watched it earlier today as well.
It was a good movie but still had the generic shounen tropes. And ofc it ended with the rasengan. Aside from that though, I really enjoyed the slice of life, family dynamic and drama between Naruto & Boruto. Honestly, the non-fight scenes were what shined the most in this movie. I do wish certain characters got more screen time, but overall, it was a relatively good movie.

For anyone who was disappointed in the LAST Naruto movie and thinking of watching this....

Yes do it ! This is definitely the best Naruto movie (which is not saying much cause most sucked) and nostalgia did help my enjoyment seeing everyone as an adult and the final fight was good.

Best Naruto movie ever and I seen every single one. The action was off the charts even more so then The Last movie. There were also some comedy moments. Me and my friends had a good time so if ur a die hard Naruto fan you will not be disappointed.

The theater I was in loved it. Everyone was roaring and cheering.

I'm so glad that Kishimoto wrote this; he knows the characters better than anyone. It mixes the more heartwarming family themes of the early series with the action of later volumes.

I thought I was gonna hate Boruto, but he grew on me. e had legitimate reasons for being annoyed with his dad.

Seeing Naruto and Sasuke team up was awesome, and reminds you that they have pretty good chemistry. I wish that Sakura got to do more, but she and Temari had one really cool scene.

The villains were lame personality wise, but whatever, they were just there for cool fight scenes.

The end credits song and images will give people the feels, I guarantee it.

This was such a great movie for the fans. I'm so glad Sasuke had a major role in this compared to the previous one where he only had like 5 minutes of screen time. Boruto was pretty annoying at the beginning but I eventually grew to like him towards the end. The whole journey of seeing Naruto trying to bond with his son while being the busy hokage was quite something. The Kote/Science Ninja Weapon seemed like a really neat contraption but Boruto using that to cheat his way through was just not the ninja way. :P

The villains were pretty standard and overpowered. Although the action scenes were so ridiculous yet so entertaining. Typical shounen having such crazy fights. Naruto and Boruto charging up a massive Rasengan together was so great though. Finding out about Mitsuki's parent being Orochimaru at the end was so hilarious and I can't believe I didn't realise it since he does resemble Orochimaru and has the ability to stretch his arms. Overall 8/10

The poster they gave out at my showing in Phoenix said late 2016, so if you don't catch it now, you'll have to wait a year. It's worth seeing in theaters, a very fun movie.

I loved the scene where Naruto was proud of Boruto for passing the second round of the Chuunin Exams. It was both awkward and cute that he didn't really know what to do in that situation for a moment.

It was also surprising when it turned out Boruto was actually using the chakra storage tool to do all those advanced ninja techniques. I initially thought he was a prodigy but I prefer it this way where Boruto, like Naruto, doesn't know everything at the beginning but grows stronger.

I didn't really care for the villains but the action scenes were amazing. It was also great to see cameos of all the characters. On the other hand, Konoha really became modernized as time passed. I liked that they have handheld video games and computers now.

I do feel sad that Naruto couldn't make it to Himawari's birthday celebration. That was an emotional scene.

Overall, this was 8/10. I wanted to see more focus on the supporting characters but I do like the relationships between Naruto, Boruto, and Sasuke. I agree with 0w0 (from the reviews) that Hinata and Sakura looked beautiful! (*≧∀≦*)

Okay then, putting all of this stuff aside, I watched the film and I must say that this was easily the best Naruto film ever....However, since I already knew everything that happened in the film, I wasn't as hyped for it as I usually are for these type of things



I cba to go into full detail but I feel like this is enough to show how I felt about the film....Solid 8.5/10 for me

Best Naruto movie bar none, the Hokage scene with Sasuke and Boruto and the Father and Son Rasengan scene was some of the best scenes in the entire franchise.

9/10 and its shame this is Kishi's last work(for now).

Bascially Madara with EMS and Kyuubi could've killed the villains in this movie on his own.

Tenten and Lee are NOT a couple.
Watch the ending credits.
They show all the families but TenTen is separate from Rock/Metal Lee.

Also, I read on Reddit that lee's wife hasn't even been drawn yet.

Yeah.... HOLY SHIT! Mitsuki is Orochimaru's son. That is a freaking twist right there, and an ending too. what a good ending tbh. the song before the after credit scene was really nice too. OMG, i think this one is better that Naruto. Naruto or Boruto, i choose Boruto, but i hope they just end it like that. that is a good way to end Naruto series. The animation, the fighting scene was awsome too, and the drama..... HAHAHA i don't even want to feel it. Nice job, seriously. i think this is the only good seires from all Naruto series or movie. I don't have anything to say..... NICE JOB!!!9/10 XD.

i thought before, if they didn't told me who is Mitsuki's father, i will give it 7, but the answer was beyond my expectation. OROCHIMARU? FUCK SHIT!!! What a twist seriously. tbh, i don't really enjoy it well cause i watch it in cinema. i wish i can enjoy this movie just for myself......in my room....

I had a few issues here and there but it was really good compared to the other movies in the franchise. The animation however was arguably the best I've seen this year. The BD/DVD are definitely worth buying this time.

Just watched in at the theater today, holy crap it was awesome. I loved it, hands down best Naruto movie. This is coming from someone that hated the other movies (except the first).

I actually enjoyed the "emotional" parts of the film unlike the usual Naruto movie's filler character formula or the hamfisted mess that was The Last.

The action was better than any film before by far. The taijutsu parts rivaled the Kakashi vs Obito fight. During the action I couldn't stop grinning, even during the opening. I was fanboying harder than when I watched the recent DBZ movies.

The only disappointing aspect (besides no one acknowledging what happened to Bee) was the previous generation's lack of screen time (Kakashi's era). Given the direction and goal of the movie, it was understandable.

I'd have to say this movie was probably the most satisfying serialized anime movie I've seen. While I would definitely enjoy seeing more Boruto, I would be fine with this as the series' true epilogue.

If they were to continue Boruto, I don't know if I'd want it as a manga given how the series deteriorated towards the end and the sorry state of the anime. Personally, I think I'd prefer a Boruto series of movies instead.

So glad they made another Boruto event for select theaters since I missed the first one. Watching a Naruto (well technically Boruto) movie in theaters for once in my life was so satisfying. But this movie made me really feel like I was saying goodbye to Naruto (Naruto's generation).

I cried like 5-6 times in the movie, probably more, idk, wasn't really counting.

I think what the movie did really well in (just like Road to Ninja) was the family aspect. I could tell how much Naruto's situation paralleled Kishi's. After watching the movie, I think I understand why Naruto told Boruto to call him Nanadaime in the Hokage's office. You can tell from the beginning that Naruto is still the same silly guy we know for the most part, like forgetting the third thing he was supposed to say for the last words in the interview. However since he never really knew how it felt to hang out with his parents and he's still the sane Naruto that we've known since the beginning, he doesn't know how to act fatherly. I think he wanted to be a mature figure (he was overworking himself quite a lot too, you could even see the dark circles under his eyes), so he's just a very awkward father. I mean he still dotes on his son, being fidgety and wondering if Boruto got through the second round, and trying to tell Boruto congrats. Boruto was also so cute when he was rolling around in bed after Naruto went to congratulate him >< But yeah, the family theme was really touching. As I said before in Road to Ninja, I'm weak to family themes, especially if it's done well.

Of course, special mention to the action scenes, imo Naruto never fails to deliver in this department, I love hand to hand combat, so lots of taijutsu in this movie made me so excited. Along with the iconic Naruto Shippuuden songs in the right moments, it was just nostalgia overload. Shutsujin is one of my favorite song from the OST, and it's not a Naruto movie if the boss battle doesn't end with Heaven Shaking Event. I agree though that the villains were sort of whatever, but I guess it gave closure to the whole Kaguya ordeal. They were pretty much just a tool to for the father and son to understand each other. Man that rasengan at the end though, SO MANY FEELS, along with what Sasuke said to Boruto earlier in the movie. The Sasuke and Boruto combo too was reminiscent of the Naruto-Sasuke pretty much first ever combo when they faced Zabuza the first time, because Sasuke's "sword" was actually Boruto in disguise.

I really loved the moments between Naruto and Sasuke as well, them just conversing like normal friends. Their teamwork was great too in the final battle.

I think another theme of the movie was about generation gap, shown by the crazy progression in technology as well as the level of motivation to train (I guess that's mostly Boruto though). Naruto's "backstory" that Boruto doesn't know about reminds me of how my uncle told me that he worked really hard to get to where he's at. Sometimes kids really don't know much about their parents, and I think it's important to know who they were since it gives a lot of insight to who they are now. Which is why Sasuke told Boruto that Boruto doesn't need to know who Naruto is right now, but what he went through in the past. I'm glad Boruto really understood that at the end and told his father that he doesn't have to change anything, as long as he has time now and then to tell Boruto about himself. Man I'm getting teary-eyed again just thinking about it. That smile Naruto gave Boruto before Boruto blacked out was such an emotional moment. I'm really glad that Boruto doesn't want to be the Hokage, he's right that he doesn't have to go after his father's and grandfather's footsteps. Instead, it's Sarada. I'm surprised that she's a fangirl of Boruto haha.

There were of course, comedic moments as well, they were pretty much all hits for me. Especially the Mitsuki parent reveal after the credits, omg. I mean I knew it was coming because I've seen gifs of it, but still so funny. Mitsuki telling it like it is, answering, "Does it matter?" to Sarada's question about Orochimaru being his father or mother XD I enjoyed watching the trio, I would love to see more of them. Reading Naruto Gaiden didn't really allow me to understand Boruto so I was more or less indifferent to him, but after this movie, I really like him now. I think the new generation all have their interesting parts. The credits was great too, even if it was just black and white drawings of the characters and their families, seeing older Gai-sensei and Iruka made me sad because it really shows that they've aged and that time really did pass.


I love this movie so much, I would totally watch it again in theaters if I could (although I wouldn't go to tomorrow's showing because that's too soon). I'd say it was the best Naruto movie as well, I think Kishi writing the scenario/script will always be good. This and Road to Ninja are my favorite Naruto movies. I'm still not over the movie, it was just that enjoyable.

edit: wow I took 49+ minutes to write this, seeing the person who above me sent the comment 49 minutes before me...

Sarada just had to ask if Orochimaru was the mother or father. That made my day. LOL
