For being the first part of two, this movie did a pretty good job.
As for the CGI quality, it wasn’t bad bad, but it definitely could have been better. For example, some of the human corpses didn’t look realistic at all.. However, I really liked how similar Migi is to the anime version !
They changed some parts of the plot and the timeline, which makes sense since it’s really hard to condense an entire anime into two movies, that's why I agree with the choices they made even though the anime’s storyline is definitely stronger. As a fan of the anime, I think this is a pretty good live-action adaptation—definitely not better than the anime though, which I rated 4.5 stars (but in my heart, it’s a 5 stars tbh).
I appreciated the fact that they kept some key phrases and moments, at least my favourites.
( here's my review of the anime )
I really liked Shota Sometani’s performance. I had already seen him in Himizu, but this time I actually liked the movie! So it was great seeing him act so well. Also, there are many incredible actors in this film who have starred in very well-known movies.
Looking forward to part 2!
