Review of Ultraman: Rising: Charming Animation Battles

Ultraman chronicles baseball player Ken Sato's battle to assume his father's role as the renowned hero Ultraman on Soap2Day Watch Movies while juggling his own life as a famous sportsman. When Sato is forced to care for Emi, a 35-foot-tall, fire-breathing infant kaiju, the spawn of his deadliest enemy, this delicate balancing act takes an unexpected turn. Emi, the kaiju pup to Sato's lone wolf, is really just a cute but dependent water dragon at heart, despite her tough demeanor. Now, as he defends the kaiju cub from a regime determined to wipe out all enormous monsters in Tokyo, Ultraman must set aside his ego to face the difficulties of motherhood. Four distinct responsibilities form the basis of the traditional superhero concept created by co-writers Marc Haimes and Shannon Tindle.


Ultraman: Rising is faced with a struggle as Ken Sato plays on both huge and small scales as a professional athlete, a giant superhero, Emi's father, and his father, Professor Sato's son. It's challenging to create an aesthetic that lets both tones stand out, and as the story develops, it does seem like the film is attempting to overcome that difficulty. Positively, ILM's hyper-stylized computer-generated imagery, which features brief bursts of 2D effects, is ideally suited for massive setpieces. This is the real shining moment for Ultraman: Rising. The entire setting is altered by Ultraman's abilities, director Shannon Tindle, and co-director John Aoshima to convey the feeling of each punch.
