20:06 - *Hinata hangs by a scarf off a building so she won't slide down the side and plummet to her doom*YOU'RE A NINJA!!! USE YOUR CHAKRA TO ATTACH TO THE WALL!!!! THAT'S SOME 1ST ARC LEVEL STUFF FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!!!!!41:15 - *Naruto falls down some stairs, hurts his back, and asks Hinata to apply some salve to a spot he can't reach*YOU'RE A NINJA!!!! USE A SHADOW CLONE JUTSU LIKE YOU DID IN EVERY EPISODE EVER OF THE SHOW EVER AND APPLY THE LOTION YOUR DAMN SELF!!!!!57:30 - *Throwaway movie villain narrates he's grand plan on how / why he plans to destroy the world and how it somehow ties into the main plotI'm sorry. We're halfway through this feature film and I'm hearing the villains monologue and the only thing I can think is, "Why didn't they use Orochimaru for this?!? SASUKE LITERALLY BROUGHT THE MEGATRON-LEVEL-ARCHNEMISIS OF THE SERIES BACK TO LIFE AND LEFT HIM JUST WALKING AROUND AT THE END OF THE MANGA. LIKE DID WE FORGET THAT HE'S BASICALLY A NINJA NAZI SCIENTIST WHO DOES EXPERIMENTS ON PEOPLE?!?!?! THEY HAD TO USE THIS NO NAME YUTZ FOR THE VILLAIN OF THE FINAL INSTALLMENT OF THE SERIES AND NOT THE CLASSIC VILLAIN WHO WAS LITERALLY ALIVE AGAIN ALREADY?!?!?! I MEAN FOR CRYING OUT LOUD AT LEAST DIGIMON KNEW TO BRING OUT MIYOTISMON AS A CROWD PLEASER!!!"1:50 *Naruto and Hinata finally kiss after 8 years of reading this damn comic*"DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWW.... this is the greatest movie of all time ;u;"So yeah, I can understand why this material wasn't in the comic. Naruto's primary focus in terms of theme was one of getting stronger, rivalry, fighting evil, and rising to your dreams (ya know, like every other shonen ever). Maybe a story in the time skip detailing how Naruto and Hinata actually did end up together could have been done well, but this movie certainly isn't it. The writing in this thing is Fanfiction level in quality. Not bad fanfiction... more like the fanfiction level of a high schooler who could write at a good level if they kept at it for 10 years and maybe switched over to public domain characters. But fanfiction. The romance is so sappy my DVD player was leaking maple syrup. The action is gigantic in scale and beautifully animated, but boring and predictable in everything that happens. It even forgets its own universes established rules and consistencies in the battle system (i.e. not using chakra to stick to those DAMN WALLS HINATA C'MON). But...I have been shipping these two guys since the Chunin exam arc and seeing this film and those two get married and have little ninja babies warmed by bitter old heart. 10/10 best film ever should have won the Oscar for best feature film. Screw you Pixar.

This is the first screenplay by Masashi Kishimoto the writer of Naruto Manga. The movie is about how Naruto Uzumaki finally falls in love with Hinata Hyuuga and at the same time realizes how much Hinata has loved him ever since they were small kids. The movie shows the deep bond the two share and is among the finest anime movies of all time. For Naruto fans the movie is an amazing experience which is filled with great action sequences featuring Naruto in Kurama Mode fighting Toneri, Naruto defending Hinata from being kidnapped and many more. There are a few funny moments as well but the movie is basically a love story that most fans had been waiting to watch. The soundtracks in the movie are truly beautiful. For those who haven't followed Naruto in the past, there are a few things that they may not understand but the movie is still quite enjoyable. For hardcore Naruto fans this movie is bound to leave them emotional(some with tears) and wanting more. I hope you enjoy the movie as much as I did.

Such a freaking beautiful movie! Naruto Finally chooses a wife after his rough childhood tugs on my heart strings something fierce. This is by far the best Movie of the Naruto Series in terms of content. The action parts may have been not as good as the animated series but how can you compare to the fight with Pain that lasted like 4 episodes? I'd say for sure this movie is a 10/10 without fail for being a beautifully put together and just amazing movie. All in all this movie with how many holes it filled and Naruto finding his wife is unbelievably beautiful. Makes me wish they would make a series about their offspring though because their kids would be monsters of the Shinobi world!

I'll get this out of the way: I never liked any of the Naruto series. It's everything that's wrong with the shounen genre. Gave up on the first TV series after episode 100 when the onslaught of unbearable filler started. Watched a few episodes here and there of Shippuden then decided to read the manga up until the final chapter. This movie feels like what made just for me because it focused on arguably the one only thing that I found interesting about the Naruto universe: the relationship between Naruto and his background filler / friend Hinata. In the middle of all the insane chaos with Orochimaru, Sasuke and all the major wars, this side story with these two characters is something' that was lacking and felt very unexplored. Thankfully, a movie was made that bridges the gap between the final chapter and the epilogue. Movie starts with new scenes that place Hinata as a childhood acquaintance of Naruto, who stands up for her which results in bullies mocking his botched shadow clone technique, getting beat up and having his red scarf ripped apart. Hinata thanks him and he offers her his scarf as a keepsake which triggers her to develop feelings for the kid. Time jumps to the first few episodes of the original Naruto series where Hinata scribbles down Naruto's name and makes it her goal to win him as time and adulthood chimes in. But Hinata's quest to win Naruto's heart gets sidetracked by a menacing villain who kidnaps her baby sister. Let's start with the good: - Top notch animation all around. Character animations and the smoothness of the thankfully short combat scenes. Characters who are not pertinent to the plot are relegated to being cameos and all the characters who matter are the main focus. As much as I hear many complaining about Sasuke being basically a glorified cameo, let's get one thing straight: he has nothing to do with this. This is Naruto and Hinata's story. Sakura makes sense because she is pertinent to this story as she is both Naruto and Hinata's longtime friend and companion. Shikamaru is there because he is assigned by Kakashi and Sai also plays an important role. Cool Sasuke cameo but in the grand scheme of things, he had nothing to do with the plot. Using a doomsday scenario during peacetime, The Last: Naruto the Movie is a slow moving but satisfying romantic dramedy with plenty of action to go around. The first 25 minutes we deal with Hinata's doing her best to knit that scarf as a both a present and a confession. Grown up, a wartime hero, we also see a less crazy, more mature and focused Naruto enjoying life, pestered by groupies and scolded by Sakura who is pro actively helping Hinata while chastising Naruto for not putting two and two together as he is oblivious to Hinata's every attempt to win his heart. Enter the main bad guy who kidnaps Hinata's sister. The main bad guy is somehow connected to the abnormal lunar activities so Kakashi assembles a task force. He sends them on a mission to save Hinata's sister. After a long battle to gain entrance to the Toneri's hideout, the team is frozen by a technique that traps them into a slumber in which they relive their memories over and over. This is one of the most beautiful sequences in the movie. With Naruto starting to connect all the dots as to how Hinata feels about him by inserting himself into her memories from his perspective. That sequence helps Naruto evolve as a character, being more mature and understanding that there was a void in is life. The dream sequence is an interesting metaphysical venue for Naruto to understand both his feelings as well as understand Hinata's feelings towards him. I admit I do not have all the information since I didn't watch enough of Naruto to piece all the history between these two characters, but the movie does a good enough job covering all the logistics of how Naruto and Hinata's history would lead to this particular event. Naruto as a kid, stands up for Hinata and offers her his torn scarf, not understanding at first how just much of an impact it would have on her life. The movie reminds us that in the time frame in which Naruto was ostracized, Hinata was the only person who was genuinely kind to him during his formative years and again the movie clearly shows that he never quite understood why. And Hinata's confession to him while he was engaged in a bloody battle against Pain was a surprise but once again, it's clear that he didn't quite understand. It's only when he looks into Hinata's memories from her perspective, particularly just how much Hinata is also a constant presence in his own memories. The team starts their search in an abandoned village and this also has important character moments in which Naruto himself is more relaxed, but also clumsier. Hinata walks into a small cobweb which prompts Naruto to act more kindly. Moments later, the hero himself hits a bigger spiderweb. This shows that Naruto is more relaxed in her presence but also distracted by his newly understood feelings. It's charming to see this kid who screamed about being a Hokage every single episode in an unfamiliar territory. What our hero sees as Hinata going into the arms of another is actually a clever reveal with flashbacks in which Hinata acts as a Trojan horse, but it also pains her to keep the act to gain Toneri's confidence at the cost of losing Naruto. The final act is bookended by a massive showdown with Naruto and Toneri. But fighting is nothing compared to the last set piece in which Naruto and Hinata return to Earth, effectively ending an important chapter in the hero's life. Be sure to take in the music and the wedding stills during the credits.
