All Naruto movies are pretty nice, but they usually have this emotional outburst of loyalty and desire to protect, followed by annoyingly inspiring shouted speeches that are just too much to take. This film has very little of that, it starts with an interesting premise, continues to the end in a pretty straightforward way and then it ends with a bang.The ending could have been better, I grant you that, but it wasn't awful and Naruto didn't just breeze through with some jutsu or another, he actually had to fight it out.Bottom line: not the best Naruto movie, but one that I liked.

few of the reason why this movie lacks the spirit.1) After so many years of airing, still the animation of Naruto has not improved quite a lot as compared to the current technology. for example look at Khufu panda or other movies, and this one is no where close. awful 2) Everyone knows that Shinobi can do transformation Jutsu, yet without gather complete information, hidden leaf decided to send Naruto into the worst prison possible.3) why will you send your Jinchuriki to such a prison, where the enemy can take the Bizzu?? this is complete fail 4) if there is such a box of bliss, than where is pain, Tobi, and Akatsuki. why haven't they tried to take over that box yet?? 5) Never shown any reason why Naruto was the best choice for this mission. why not someone else from leaf's Anbu group??? 6) When do this people die? Mukku put a through hole from his father's heart and yet he is still alive. Naruto used his Rasen-Shuriken and yet he is still alive.7) why did only leaf people came to destroy the box, when such box poss threat to entire world. if it poss threat to entire world, than a representative from each country should have come.8) if naruto can kill such a monster by himself, why Tsunada is not able to touch that monster, than she is not worthy of Hokage. she should resign.9) why did leaf people went brusque in the end and start hitting rest of prisoners? like Naruto, it may be possible that some of the other prisoners are also innocent and have been framed wrongly.10) if Naruto can kill such a monster, why haven't he killed Sasuke yet? how can Sasuke be more powerful than the monster who took over the whole world once.overall a lame plot and a very disappointing story.

this movie is OK, but id say don't waste your time with it, its not great, i was having a good time with the first half, which tries to tell a great story, that is not that great, but then it goes into stupid twists that ruined it for me. yes there was naruto sannin mode, and some great sequences but nothing that left me with my mouth open... maybe except for one sequence between konoha's shinobi A.K.A. z warriors against the giant digimon the movie uses as a final boss.the animation is great but the movie is idiotic for me, i think that is a waste of great work from artists and animators. The lost tower was supposedly written by masashi kishimoto or something like that, but it wasn't great either. I prefer to think that he has never put a finger over pierrot's creations because that would explain why naruto's core story is that awesome and why the filler material sucks so much

Naruto. Possibly the most loud obnoxious retard in the Shinobi hidden leaf village. Yet now in a state of utter dismay becomes an unwilling participant for a mission he does not even know about. Thrown in a prison for Shinobi only, Naruto becomes a participant although non-consensual of having his powerful Chakra stolen by the Prison head for himself. The Chakra will then be used upon a box, or The box of enlightened bliss. For who so ever uses it, is granted a wish in exchange for the Chakra. Yet the prison head does not realize that when he resurrects his son, after sacrificing him in the first place, has now a nearly unstoppable force to be reckoned with. Naruto, with his never ending ways of using his talents, along with a close friend, both become a united force for which Muku (Reserrected Son) has to deal with. In a transformed state Muku uses fear in the hearts of men to avoid any attacks. Which makes him a weapon of choice. Yet Naruto and for all of his training, uses the Sennin technique to block off any fear which Muku can sense. Now armed with more wisdom, both Naruto, and Ryuzetsu, finally stop Muku and his barrage of chaos. At the expense of her life. I have to say every Naruto film is always enjoyable. To see brand new stories, new episodes, and more laughs. This makes the series one the greatest on television. And one of the longest running Animes to date. Following along is One Piece, Bleach, Detective Conan. A really wonderful breakaway from the norm.
