It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

I'm a little surprised this was as good as it was. I guess they had to make it a good Naruto movie because the series is ending and they want people to give Baruto a chance. Whatever, jury is still out on if I'm going to watch Baruto, all signs point to "no" right now. Anyway, this film is about Naruto's son, Baruto and this is pretty much a rehashing of Naruto seasons 2 and 3. It is worth watching. Good action, animation and whatever. But mostly this is worth watching just to see Naruto and his friends interact as adults. Awww, seeing Naruto as a grownup brings a tear to my eye. Not really but whatever. It is better than your average manga movie spin off or whatever.

Let me first say that I'm not particularly a fan of anime: I like Naruto, Dragon Ball, and Death Note for a while, but beyond that, never much else. Also, I hate Anime Movies with a passion (unless it's Spirited Away and Mononoki) and I went to see this movie because a friend got me a ticket... That's all. This is by far the best Anime movie I've ever seen in my life! I hate pretty much all the Naruto movies, except for The Last Movie (It's was okay, IMP). Words cannot describe it! How does a show that should have been stretch to it's limit suddenly start a new series and not screw it up in any way! This new era in the Naruto franchise should have been a bomb, but I believe this new series may have potential to be better than even the original two Naruto series. The story is great, and completely different from how anyone... ANYONE thought it would be (Naruto's son wants to be Hokage... Yadidadeda... Not at all!) and it wasn't! This is a new story that breaths incredible life into the series nobody had seen since the first time it appeared on Anime! I'm serious, this is from a guy who's not a big anime guy! The character are great (Boruto becomes great towards the end, but that's meant to be the case. He sucks at the beginning), some old characters make great entrances and even see some action, the ending is great, the chemistry between the new characters and the old is incredible and very relatable, Sasuke's character is better than EVER (Until now, I never liked Sasuke, but now I love him!!!!). It starts off strong, has really good drama, the pacing is masterful, soundtrack is well-built and put together, the humor is done very well, and the best part is YOU DON'T NEED TO KNOW A THING ABOUT THE ORIGINAL NARUTO TO LOVE IT! I'm serious! In fact, I would go as far to say that this movie, Boruto: The Movie, is the best starting point for newbies! This movie should have been average at best... A disappointment to the fans, and I have never been more into anime in my life! The only thing I didn't like about it was the "Mini-Scroll Gauntlet" during the Chunin exams to not spoil it. Those who saw it and understand what it means will surely agree with me. It also kinda feels like the Legend of Korea, when technology is introduced to the world, but that's not necessarily a bad thing (It can be one however in the future), every moment is used (never wasted), and it never gets boring! There isn't ever a forced moment (which is huge for me because, even though I like Naruto a lot, there are a lot of really forced moments, especially with the terrible English voice acting, which I hate with an utmost and absolute passion!) I also would have wanted a mini-anime to come out soon after because now I'm on my computer trying to figure out when the next one's come out. I here there's an excellent Manga that's the prequel to the movie, but I never read the Manga. Perhaps, I will this time considering how good this movie was. One of the best movies of the year, easily, along side (in my opinion) The Martian, Sicario, Ant-Man, Straight Outta Compton, Bridge of Spies, and Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation. Seriously, go see this movie! You'll be surprised!

This movie sums up the legacy of Naruto very well! I enjoy watching it from the first till the very last minute plus credits and the cliffhanger of Mitsuki's parent after that. Everyone was laughing on that!The plot and scenes are arranged beautifully that I feel no time is wasted. Graphics animations and music soundtrack also have amazing effects!Even if you don't read the Japanese manga or previous movie, you can tell that the essence of story about a boy who's longing for a father's acceptance but ended up overwhelmed by the fact that Boruto's father (Naruto) has overcame so much weaknesses that viewers should know how did he do that. On the sideline, we also see how Naruto's best friends like Sasuke, Shikamaru and the Gokages teaming up in ways we've never seen before as the new united generation. The scenes where Naruto and Sasuke fighting Kinshiki are awesome, beat my expectation!Movie is about 90% close to the novel which is excellent. Some scenes like Sakura & Temari, Chunnin Exams, flashback on Naruto learning Rasengan with Jiraiya, Neji's death really brings fond of memories of Naruto stories.The movie could've been a little better with deeper interaction between Naruto, Hinata and Himawari, as well as Konohamaru and Kakashi. I hope this is not the last from either Naruto or Boruto.

I'll admit it Naruto was a Bad father he didn't event went to the important occasions that his family has, he clearly stated to Hinata from the The Last that she'll be his first priority from now on then he became Hokage, Yes we understand that it is his dream to be a Hokage but he doesn't have to shoulder all the duties making clones to fix all the stuff, Naruto cares but he doesn't know how to show it i think he forgot to show affection already due to the stress that he is dealing with, you'll understand once you've watched it you'll notice it. Now for Boruto he was a neglected child, before he wasn't he misses his father a lot because their family bond too much and he feels bad for his mom Hinata and his baby sister Himawari who doesn't have time for them, He really is kind hearted and very angry at his Dad. He just doesn't want to be neglected, Two sides are correct and we can't side which one of them. Now for Sasuke oh boy he redeemed himself, Went soul searching and found his answer being the new Jiraya, finding intel to know if the 5 nations is still safe after the War with Kaguya and found one, he teach-ed Boruto as well cause he knows what Boruto feel when he was young. Naruto = Itachi, Boruto = Sasuke. One thing i noticed is that i can't feel the Family Love, Naruto and Hinata only talked once, Sasuke and Sakura didn't even talk, no affection (i think Kishimoto is bad at writing this kind of stuff) The fight scenes now, oh i love it Less Jutsu, MORE Taijutsu, They know that it was a follower of Kaguya, Once Sasuke knew the weakness He and Naruto goes H.A.M i don't wanna spoil more, i was just hoping that it would be a 2 hr movie to broaden up what happened after they'll get together, etc. it was a bit rushed but i'll feel bad for the Animators who really worked hard, the animation is very very good.
