Ultraman: Rising may be a kaleidoscopically color-timed action adventure of throw-down battles, but it’s really about parenting in its many shapes and forms.

San Francisco Chronicle

“Ultraman: Rising” is a bit longer than it needs to be, but buoyed by a strong voice cast and a unique point of view that blends elements of superhero action with heartfelt family drama, it’s an effective reinvention of a franchise...

Rated: 3/4

Movie Nation

The narrative veers between the action-packed and the insipid often enough to give one whiplash. The messaging is so shallow as to simply invite shrugging off. And the jokes are few and far between.

Rated: 2/4

It is a beautiful masterpiece and as a kid I loved Godzilla and now I still love Godzilla and ultra man is one of my by far favorites so having a giant who battles kaijus raise a kaiju it's awesome plus the plot is perfect and fits every character in the right spot

He amado ésta película con todo mi corazón, puede que no sea algo novedoso en cuestión de trama, pero manejan la historia muy bien!! Es muy conmovedora, y de las pocas veces en las que he llorado la muerte de un antagonista, la animación es hermosa y las 3 peleas que tiene son épicas. No importa que no sean fans de Ultraman, denle la oportunidad.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars
