Moviegoers are saying
Bleach: Thousand Year Blood War's theatrical release delivers stunning animation and epic battles that have fans calling it 'absolute cinema,' though many feel shortchanged by what's essentially three TV episodes packaged as a $20 movie experience. Despite the format controversy, longtime fans and newcomers alike are praising the visual spectacle and calling it a worthy continuation of the beloved anime series.

    Bleach is PEAK! I couldn't watch it in theaters because it wasn't showing in my city. But after finally watching the three-episode movie version, yeahhh, the long wait for Bleach was absolutely worth it.

    This was so much fun to see in theaters. The only downside is it ends when things are just getting good. I need more. Bleach me now please.

    An epic way to begin the final chapter of Bleach Thousand Year Blood War. I loved every minute.

    Wish the episodes were longer but that’s the only complaint for me!

    That Calamity lives up to the hype and then some. The last 15 minutes alone were absolute cinema

    5/5 Stars nice head start into the final season of the anime.

    OK

    So unnecessary to be a movie, barley any action just a bunch of talking

    Not really a full $20 experience but I love the series enough to pay it & show support, we don’t want another 7DS situation. Yoruichi Cheeks ahead!
