Since I know that news feeds are cruel and unforgiving with their article summaries...I guess I need to post a little bit of filler before my one sentence review. I wouldn't want to spoil the movie. You should see it regardless of what I think or at least have to say about it. It was a film. Considering the films that are currently playing, it's the filmiest of all films probably. I mean...I've seen Spider-man before. Little Mermaid was all the rage when I was a youngster. Fast and Furious? I tapped out after watching the second one *checks notes* 20 years ago!?!?
So a Kamen Rider film graced the screens in America. Many thanks for Fathom for granting us that. It was a packed house, which was cool. I met up with my brother to catch it.
OK...is that enough filler to avoid spoiling this in feeds?
My one sentence review:
It was great, phenomenal even, but much like all of the characters...it dissolves rapidly by the third act.

I want to write more about this, and I likely will, but right now I'm almost baffled by what unfolded.
Anyway.
I've been away for a long time and I want to explain my absence from the site. Soon. Very soon. I promise. I have a lot to say and maybe I would feel something if I got it off of my chest.

P.S. Toei will fuck it up with a sequel. They always do.
