A typical filler movie of a big shounen franchise.

If you want two hours filled by battles and great animation, you won't be disappointed. However, for those looking for compelling villains with clear motives, the result may not be the same.

The established characters, as always, are enjoyable to see, with a good part of the cast present here. Learning a bit more about the past of the kingdom is engaging.

The new characters, i.e. the villains, are genuinely interesting at first glance: cool design, unique powers, different from one another, etc. But their past and motives are clearly underdeveloped. As a result, it may be hard to feel anything about them. Why do they loathe the world, so much that they want to destroy it? At best, the viewer gets one or two shots that don't bring much information. Even though this is only a two hour long movie, an explanation or a 30 second short flashback for each villain would have been enough.

In the end, this is an enjoyable movie in which the animators put their heart into, but this won't be memorable for some people.
