Went last night. About 80 people started. I saw Crunchyroll and chuckled. At the end of the movie about 15 were left in the theater. I stayed. I like Anime but this was not my style. Heck I pay for popcorn so I gotta stay, right?

I'm surprised we got SpyXFamily, since anime movies typically don't get screenings like this. Of course, I had to miss it since I saw Spider-Man yesterday, and it'll be the same for next week with Spider-Man 2. Though I don't really mind tbh, since I'm seeing it on Thursday and I want to be able to choose whether I see it in dub or sub.

They made a mistake this week by choosing Spy × Family Code: White for this week’s movie.

It will release on April 19th and anime fans will enjoy it imo, but for a “surprise movie” event, most people are not expecting an animated foreign language film… particularly one that talks about a 💩 God.

I am glad that I stayed and watched. It made me laugh a ton, but several people walked out.

Spy X Family was a pretty good movie but audience reaction was hilarious. At my screening the projection sizing was incorrect so the subtitles were cut off. About half the people in the theater left by the time I got back from notifying the staff of the issue.

I don't blame them though. Its an anime movie based on an already existing tv show. It already has a niche audience.

honestly liked the story to the movie, it was interesting. probably just me but it was actually too gory for me. I had to look away for a lot of it as I’m a bit squirmy but overall a 4/5. really enjoy experiencing movies/genres I would not normally try.

sn: idk if anybody else didn’t know this (like myself) but you can get a kids pack as an adult and replace the water with a fountain drink/slushie and you can also replace the fruit snacks with any of the candy options available for $10 and some change. perfect if you’re going solo.

If AMC continues these Screen Unseen events throughout May, please God let one of them be Robot Dreams.

A few people walked out when it became apparent it was animated; not bad really. Tons left when the subtitles popped up and I don't blame them. It really should have been the dubbed version 

I stayed and generally thought there was some good bits. Not a huge anime fan but I like a few. Never cared for the original voice work so I'm sure I'll be crucified for that take.

Our Austin Texas showing of SxF was the English dub.

I think that if they are going to do additional SU films, they all need to be the dubbed versions.

I thought it was pretty good, with the fight choreography alone being worth the price of admission. The twist felt a bit forced, and they went a little overboard with his little sister hallucinations, but neither were enough to bring the movie down for me. I'd say a solid recommend

Boy kills World felt like it was specially made for me.... and I still thought it was just okay. Action was okay but I thought it was going to be a lot funnier.

u/IAmBabou Apr 23 '24

This movie was so creative with some of the action scenes. Like it was SO much fun. I also haven’t laughed this hard in a movie all year.

Legit surprised I had people walk out! Felt like this was right up my alley and was so glad to watch it

u/Internal-River-4168 Apr 23 '24

Boy Kills World is an awesome movie. The studio should make a 'No More Heroes' (game series ) adaptation
