Fans of the manga or anime will be disappointed. It mashes all sorts of plot points into 110 minutes and just leaves fragments hanging with no explanation. (Moro and Maru are cast as adults instead of little girls, which was really weird.) Yuuko was not particularly badly cast and Himawari was okay, but most of the rest except for Spider Spirit were bland and uninteresting. A sad representation of the manga. However I did like the effects and the ending was spot on.
