This is a fantastic movie for Hugh's final time being the Wolverine. It deffinently earns its R rating and is the better for it. Check it out! Its absolutely worth your time and money!
Also if you get this version you'll get the Noir version of the movie, so i'm sure for the niche crowd that enjoys that will love that edition for sure.
So I bought this for a movie night with some of my closest friends and they've never seen the anime series or OVA movies. And its surprisingly an anime movie adaption done pretty well.
Though it kind of does skip almost over one character entirely that was relevant in the show, the one kid I can't remember his name. Like his introduction to the show was an entire episode, in the movie here though he just sorta appears and just stands around in the background and doesn't really do much.
My friends never seeing the series before did like it so its welcoming to new comers to the series. However if you are a fan checking this out you'll like the Trust & Betrayal bits you see very briefly. Its worth checking out and shows that Japan can handle some adaptations better than Hollywood can haha.
