“Visual and emotional explosion”: rated 4.4 out of 5, this is the best movie of the month according to viewers!

Just weeks after the massive success of Demon Slayer – which became the highest-grossing Japanese animated film worldwide with more than $590 million – another manga adaptation is attracting audiences.

Released on October 22, Chainsaw Man – The Film: Reze’s Arc gets a 4.4*/5 rating on AlloCiné with 312 ratings. This feature film, adapted from the works of Tatsuki Fujimoto, is presented as a continuation of the first season of the animated series.

The summary looks like this:Denji worked as a devil hunter for the yakuza, hoping to erase the heavy debt left by his parents… until the day the yakuza betrayed him and executed him. But before he loses consciousness completely, Denji makes a deal with Pochita, his loyal chainsaw demon dog, and he saves his life.

With this pact, the two characters merge and thus create an unstoppable chainsaw. When a bloody war rages between demons, hunters and shadowy enemies, and a mysterious young girl named Rez invades his world, Denji must fight his most dangerous battle yet – a battle led by love, in a world where survival knows no rules.“

According to Philip O.: “Just great! This is what I expect from an animated film that adapts an action style manga. We are faced with such a well-built film that is highly appreciated, with different actions that follow each other without the impression of sequence of episodes, all this for a time that almost makes us want to ask for more. The animation is sometimes dizzying, the dose and intensity of the action.”

According to the Black Swordsman: “The movie in the continuity of season 1, that is the exception, the new character of Reze is very well written, extraordinary fights and touching scenes with perfect music, the movie perfectly limits the arc and does not affect the next season 2, despite the very fighting aspect of chainsaw man, the movie was able to show disturbing scenes and a moving ending of the movie..”

According to Ginio: “It’s a great movie, the beginning is a little long, but it’s a plot setup, not repetitive flashbacks like other anime. The soundtrack is spot on, I had a great time, and I’ll admit that seeing it in a movie theater and not just on TV changes things, like seeing Demon Slayer in a movie theater.“

According to T-rhy:A stunning adaptation of the Reese arc. This movie is a success from start to finish. Soundtrack, staging, animations, MAPPA studio pulled out all the stops. Of course, you need to watch season 1 of the anime to enjoy it 100%. Easily ranked among the best manga-to-film adaptations of recent years.“

According to ne0n: “A rip off of animation, just like Demon Slayer. the return of Denji, his gang, and the Chainsaw Man, in an adaptation of one of the arcs that was supposed to be there in season two; Which, by the way, is served very well by the large screen. The story is very well balanced, neither too long nor too short, a perfect balance.“

According to Yan240808: “Chainsaw Man is an explosion of visual and emotional power. The film brilliantly combines bloody action, dark humor and moments of sincerity. The staging is edgy, inventive, and each fight is a raw work of art.

Denji, a hero who is both naive and disturbing, embodies all the complexity of the dehumanized world in which he is just trying to live and love. The soundtrack and animation enhance this mix of chaos and poetry.”
