If you’re wondering about Naruto, debating whether this series might be your cup of tea or not then this might not be a terrible place to start. So, over all – Is the fourth Naruto Shippuden movie any good? Should you buy The Lost Tower? If you’re a Naruto fan then this is a no brainer. I do prefer it when it builds on the mythos, though. We don’t need to invent a ridiculous ninja type that’s somehow never been seen before to keep things interesting. That said I’m hundreds of episodes into the series and it’s now much better because of the plot and drama that’s started to unfold.Īt least with puppets as the bad guys and a puppet master as the arch villain there’s a bit of variety in the combat scenes. Most of the time I’m in the mood for Naruto that lack of story and action focus is just fine with. There’s a wrap-around of drama and story but it is wafer thing. Where do you go? This movie is one big long mission with most of the emphasis on the action.

So, The Last Tower starts well with some good ninja action against puppets but it faces the challenge of what happens next.

He’s a bad guy with promise too – as he’s found a lay line, a source of power that he can tap into and become incredibly powerful. Solve it and you’ll get to watch the Ultimate Rasengan in action. Given that a ninja who looks a lot like the Yellow Flash is on the front cover of the set you don’t need spoilers to work out who he gets involved with.Īh yes, there is the whole catch – how on Earth could Naurto possibly encounter the Yellow Flash? That is a mystery for the movie to unearth for you. Very quickly Naruto gets caught up the events which surround The Lost Tower. I say that Sai, Sakura and Yamato are there – but only for a while. The timeframe isn’t clear but fairly safe provided you know who Sai is. This movie hit Japan in 2010 and made about $8m in the box office. The start of the movie sees Yamato leading a mission to capture a puppet master called Mukade. It’s combat from the outset and it is designed to grab your attention. We don’t have some of the momentum issues that Naruto sometimes suffers from. Naurto Shippuden Movie 4: The Lost Tower Amazon
