Excellent, from beginning to end. The action scenes were sexy, I hope they bring this kind of stuff to the Let's Go Kamen Rider Movie, and Movie Wars Core better have it too!
Now, I have nothing against ''Showa references'' or whatever you call them, but this seems like a bit of an overreaction, where are the fucking Showa sounds you're talking about? Sure, Joker is reminiscent of the first Riders with his finishers and Henshin (great posing Shotaro), but other than that and the effect the belt makes, I don't see anything else.
If you're going to categorize something as a Showa Reference, I'd mention the entire movie.
Kaijins that have been defeated before suddenly reviving and running rampant? Mooks on motorcycles chasing after Kamen Rider? And even the directing, which may not have been intentional.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining. At all.
OOO appearance was as great as I expected, and he barely had any screen time too, had I been watching this at the theaters last summer, I would be counting the days until OOO's series started.
And I'll make a special mention to the Luna Dopant. I loved the guy, he's just a lovable villain.
''I don't hate you, just let me give you a big hug!''
Things like that, we could use another villain like that.
