So, through alternative methods, I was able to watch Shin Ultraman. My initial reaction is that the subtitles fly by a bit too quickly in the higher-pressure scenes, but I think a few viewings will make it easier to get into the dialog once I am over the spectacle the incredible action. I cannot wait to own a copy of this film. It’s fun, updated and still has a ton of nods to the original series from 1967. The hand painted energy effects by the original artist, and the motion captured movements of the original suit actor is superb! I have to say, I do miss the chest timer, but I’ll get over that.
If you get a chance… see this film! It will make older fans happy, and bring in newer viewers who don’t know what they are in for. I am giving this one a solid 9 out of 10!
