The writing of the film is _Shin Kamen Rider_’s most flawed aspect. The story is essentially a bunch of fights strung together with nostalgic throwbacks and little else. The performances are crazy fun and the cinematography captures some downright amazing perspectives during the most intense parts of the fight sequences. Despite some funny moments, fantastic action sequences, and franchise homage in the palm of its hand, _Shin Kamen Rider_ is an aimless adaptation that will likely be the most forgettable of Hideaki Anno’s tokusatsu reboots. **Full review:** https://reelrundown.com/movies/shin-kamen-rider-2023-review-disappointment-augmentation
