About minato and the others from the past: it totally feels like a metal gear experience, because they just appear at sometimes say some things and disappear, letting you return to the video game. the villain is good but the girl its only here for the almost give up-cheesy song before naruto's speech. its was great but i felt like naruto was the naruto from the time the previous movie came out, and i was expecting to see him in sennin mode kicking ass. he fights trough his puppets so we see various shapes of him. This time there's only one villain, a puppetmaster (i thought at the beginning of the movie he was pretty weak but at the last part when he is kicking everybody's ass he feels pretty strong. in naruto movies they come with some good creative ideas for this.
some thing that i like in naruto movies are the villains, in most shonen anime movies the common cliché is a team of some villains and their boss vs all the main characters. its more about naruto alone which is very cool. The action scenes are superb, animation its awesome as usual in studio pierrot movies, the story is actually pretty good.
