Underwhelming execution & doesn't meet expectation plot-wise

Rurouni Kenshin-The Final

Great stunt without a doubt, however, in terms of plot & story wise, they didn't give enough justice to the manga. Enishi Jinchuu's arc doesn't give enough impact to the Final as it shoud be. Jinchuu's arc without Jinchuu's climax & neither Kenshin's character development (his struggle, how he overcome it, etc) also present in the show. Everything was conveniently solved & Kaoru's role hv been reduced significantly to be nothing but a damsel.

It's quite dissapointing, to see how they remove the most crucial arc from the last chapters of the manga so the movie felt underwhelming to me, "plot & moral of the story" wise.
Rather than being served as The Final, it felt more like Pre-The Beginning to see how they've made it in favour to Tomoe's arc too much but not to Kenshin's as the living character himself.

Still, if you're just looking for a great action-stunt movie, this one fits the bill & you won't be dissapointed.
It has one of the best, if not the best out there.

My final rating 8/10. I just can't express my dissapointment enough to think their potential have gone wasted, oh how it could be & what IF.
