Organnall Too much about the plot just didn't add up, the writing was bad, some of the scenes were cringey and awkward,

SparkMore n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.

Mabel Munoz Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

DecembeRth2001 the movie raises too many questions with no answers. for example, *SPOILER* why was hongo chosen to be a part of shocker? what are shocker's motives for killing people? if they kill witnesses of their killings then we will go back to the question of their motives for killing. why was hongo given a motorcycle? is katsuhiko the same person as ichimonji? added that the subplot has no point of it being there. the action scenes were cool. the whole movie was good for a one time/casual watch, but if you're the kind of guy who watches movies for the story, i suggest you don't watch it, because a part of you will hate this movie and will just leave you confused as soon as the credits start rolling. i'll rate it a biased 6 just because i am a kamen rider fan, but if i weren't maybe i'll give it a 4.5 or 5 tops for the props, costumes and action scenes.

fenrisilver-1 To me, Maked Rider is your average children's Japanese Power Ranger movie. Only instead of being something only a child can enjoy, it makes for a decent action flick. With a deeper (and darker) storyline, less protagonists, and without cheesy humor, aliens, crazy weapons that give the heroes an advantage, and giant robots or powerful vehicles that that the heroes could also use to lay waste to their foes.The plot of the film jumps around quite a bit, and when it's not expanding on the main character's story you're often left bored or just dead confused at whats going on (although by the end, bits and pieces will have all come together, not that the plot twists these make are that significant to the story). Although the rising action portion of the film is a long one, and the good action scenes are short few and far between, when it gets good, it really gets good. Essentially its still acrobatic martial artists wearing costumes fighting either each other or hordes of evil minions (which are the human equivalents of grunts from Halo), the moves that the main characters can pull off are amazing. But I can't critique the film based on action so Pros Excellent Action Cool looking costumes (most of them at least) Interesting plot Cons The plot jumps around a lot The good scenes are spread out throughout the film separated by long scenes of diologue and other characters

HenshinHero I watched the movie recently. I gotta say I LOVED IT. Friggin' amazing.Pro:-Loved the romance between Hongo Takeshi, Asuka and Ichimonji Hayato. -Excellent acting. They were so good. -The Shockers. My gosh. I loved them all, especially Spider. -The subplot about two illness people who later became into Cobra and Snake. I loved that subplot. I must say it's nice to see them together and then became into villains. -The wire work were excellent. Well done. -The Choreography Fights were really well done. -The Legendary Actor who used to play as Kamen Rider V3, Hiroshi Miyauchi... it was NICE to see him in this movie. I hope he comes back in the sequel (If the rumor is true). Hiroshi Miyauchi FOREVER!Bat looks very interesting and it reminds me of Agent Aburera from Dekaranger.Con:-One thing that bothers me, it's like something went go fast. I wish they put the UNCUT version in that movie, just like Hakaider Movie. But heck, it was very enjoyable to watch.Overall, this movie gets an A-. Good plot and subplot as well. Also, Behind-The-Scenes was really cool. I must say it's a worth to buy it and watch the movie!!I'm definitely looking forward to see the sequel...if the rumor is true.HENSHIN!

helmutty To say the truth, I haven't watch the old version of kamen rider the first, so I can't say there is a difference in it. But I quite like it. I heard this movie was the remake version, and thought of going to Hong Kong to catch the movie, and turn out the cinema did not have it, but at least I went shopping and waited for the DVD. When I watched it, I realize that we should wait for the DVD to come out. You can just turn on your speaker loud and get some popcorn and sit down to watch. I don't despite the movie but I think the movie is a bit too short to watch it in the cinema. I don't know whether the old version is longer but the bad guys die too fast and the action scenes are ( I think) less than 5 minutes. Just the "whack!" the bad guys just flew off the screen, so maybe if there is another remake of it, I think they should improve the action scenes. But overall, the movie is worth a watch.
