Naruto Shippuden The Movie: Blood Prison (BD) [Blu-ray]
A**E
good variant on the usual formula
About the disc...The quality is pretty good. There is no English audio, as expected. The subtitles can be a bit confusing, as they don't always separate one character's statement from the next very clearly, but it really shouldn't cause much of a problem.As well, there is a very humorous extra short story, concerning Naruto's second attempt at the Chunin exam, and how he messes that up in typical Naruto fashion.About the movie...Having watched several of the earlier Naruto movies, it's obvious that they follow a certain formula. Not a bad thing, and one like "The Will of Fire" can add some interesting twists to it. But this one, with the premise of Naruto being put into a prison, seemed to be an attempt at a departure from the usual, which is one thing that got my interest.So, I want to give props to the people behind it for trying something different, and for largely succeeding at it.Events at the end aside, Naruto is pretty much on his own in this movie--isolated from the village, in a hostile place, and being manipulated for reasons that aren't clear at first. The story is intricate and well thought out, much more than a simple "find bad guy, beat up bad guy" scenario.Fitting the story into the timeline of the manga or anime would be problematic, but if you've seen some episodes of the anime about the time of the Five Kages' Summit, you may have seen some posters for it in the background of a few scenes, and it seems like that's about the same time events in the movie take place.Of course, it's still a Naruto movie, and the themes of friendship and loyalty are there in the end. But it doesn't have a typical happy ending, either.Btw there're a couple of extra scenes after the end credits.I enjoyed it a lot, and can recommend it.

Now this is awesome
I have been waiting for this movie for a while. When I heard that Viz was releasing it this month, just four months after they released Lost Tower (that one I hated if you read my review of it), I was excited. The action was amazing, and it knew when to be funny and it knew when to be serious. Maile Flanagan was top form as Naruto in this one.The story was amazing. Naruto gets sent to prison for attacking the Raikage, a crime he didn't commit, and once he arrives, the warden Mui seals off his chakra with a jutsu that could kill him if he even tries. Soon he finds himself in a conspiracy that could mean trouble for the world and it's all centered not only to himself but the also the prison and the warden himself and he must stop it before it's too late.I love the movie characters. First we get Maroi, a shifty-looking prisoner who actually seems to know more than he lets on, Ryuzetsu, a kuniochi of the Hidden Grass Village who is after Mui for an event I can't really disclose here, because you know, spoilers. And there's Mui with the shocking revelation on why he did what he did, and it's NOT to rule the world.While the movie does have it's faults (Where does Naruto get his cloak when he goes Sage Mode and why does it disappear when he doesn't use it?) but they're pretty much minor when you're having fun. I can say with certainty that it's one of my personal favorites.Now all I have to do is wait for Road to Ninja because it's the next one. Get it done, Viz!

Blood Prison
No matter what any one says this movie was epic,and easily of the best shippuden movies if not the best.This movie added a new element to Naruto but still kept all of its epicness this is the first movie we get to see with Naruto in sage mode and one of my personal pet peeves is that gamabunta fights to and in my personal feel every fight is better with a frog;) This is the first time mystery is really added to Naruto in a good way. We also get to see killer bee in this and the rakage the opening scene its self is will drag u inaside from how amazing the movie is it came two days early and in perfect condition.I suggest u go out and buy a copy now,this is just one of those movies you have to own

Of all the Naruto movies, this is my favorite.
I was told by some fellow anime lovers that true lovers of the genre shy away from series such as Naruto since it's so popular in America. I am glad I did not listen. I have enjoyed the entire series and this movie is no exception. Of all the movies this one stuck out the most with its story line and the way it fit in with cannon. I don't recommend watching it unless the original anime or manga series has been read or watched almost in its entirety due to some chronological happenings. Aside from that, enjoy seeing some different characters with good backstories for a change.

Good movie
I like the Naruto series and movies, but they need to keep the movies moving at a better pace and add more punch to the stories. I got this on the recommendation that it was a great movie. I didn't think it was great, but I thought it was good enough. With all the movies and other cartoons vying for attention, good enough doesn't cut it. I would recommend it only to the diehards Narutards, and would have all others watch this only after they saw everything else.

One of the better Naruto movies... by far.
Obviously it's a Naruto Movie so you're not going in (or at least you shouldn't) expecting something groundbreaking. However, I can say this Movie was a lot better than previous ones. The story was interesting and the Movie had a good set of supporting characters. I'd recommend this product to any average Naruto fan and definitely to any hardcore fan.Story: 7/10Characters: 8/10Animation: 7/10 (Nothing mind-blowing, but it was sufficient enough)Overall: 7/10 or 4/5 stars (Really a 3 and a half)

One of my favorite anime movies
And my favorite Naruto movie by far. I'm fairly sure I like it more than lost tower or road to ninja. Definitely worth buying. Bryce papenbrook who is the voice of English dub kirito voices the English dub young muku. And ryuuzetsu is amazing, and very pretty, I would have preferred her as the heroine of Naruto since she only hits Naruto once in the whole movie (she had a good reason-any self respecting female would have hit him for that-I would have). Totally worth buying!

良いのだけど
最初の頃の劇場版はストーリーも良かったんだけど、最近のはとりあえずオールスター勢揃いさせてガラガラポンみたいな印象があり、何度も見てみたいとあまり思わせないのが、一ファンとしてかなしい

綱手の鬼畜さが炸裂する映画
評価がよかったので購入しました。初代火影の柱間は、この映画のナルトと同い年のサスケに話をするとき、「まだ子供だから」と、配慮する姿勢を見せた。そんな人の孫とは思えない鬼畜ぶりを発揮する綱手。何も意図を伝えないまま、言い分を聞かず無実の罪でまだ子供のナルトを監獄送りに。額あてを一方的に取り上げ(火影にあこがれる子に、もうお前は忍者じゃないと宣告)なんだかそういう性癖の人が喜びそうな姿勢で拘束されて、監獄に送られるナルト。監獄では、術をかけられて事実上無力化されて、いかにも変態っぽい看守に下着まで下げられて身体検査される。。ナルトが瀕死の重傷を負っても、治療よりも囚人の脱獄阻止を優先する医療班の綱手とサクラ。実は無実だったってみんな知ってたんだよね。お芝居だったから!いや・・・これ、酷いよね。。。ナルトはサスケのようにグレていい。遊助のエンディング曲も、ダサいのに妙に耳に残るちょっと困った歌でした笑作画はきれいで迫力はありました。
