Discotek nabs Kitamura Lupin.

I've never seen it, but the trailer had me curious. I've always heard it's bad, but the cast for the Lupin gang look great, and maybe this new presentation without the awkward English dialogue will lead to a reappraisal?

If it's streaming anywhere, I might give it a shot. I've blind bought a few things before, but I don't know if this is going to be one of them. Still, I love the red velvet for Kitamura's Lupin jacket!

oh the casting is fantastic! all the actors are pretty solid imo. the movie itself is kind of a bore. there are a couple good action scenes but honestly the plot kinda sucks and the direction is all over the place. i don't think it's terrible and i've bothered to rewatch it at least once, but it's not the best. it was worth a watch, in my opinion!

I honestly enjoyed this movie way more than a lot of the run of the mill TV specials. I liked the cast, even the new characters like Michael, and I was invested in where the story was going. There was a lot I loved, like the part where they recruited Goemon, the way the dynamic between Jigen and Fujiko developed in the background, and that rooftop breakfast scene with the whole cast. Granted, it's been a long time since I saw it, but I think it'd hold up.
