Fun But Kind of Lacking
The plot has a strong premise, but the execution does not fully live up to it. The idea of former military members teaming up to stop a terrorist is compelling, yet the story takes too long to reach its central conflict. By the time the team is finally assembled, nearly three quarters of the series has already passed, which significantly weakens the pacing and overall momentum. The main villain is also absent for much of the show, making him feel underdeveloped. His motivations lack clarity and depth, which lessens the impact of the central threat.Even accounting for the show’s comedic tone, some character choices are off putting. The tech character, in particular, comes across as creepy in the way he behaves toward the female agent, and this undercuts the humor rather than enhancing it. Still, the series remains somewhat enjoyable. The cast does the best they can with the material they are given, and their performances are largely what kept the show engaging enough to not completely lose interest.

Stacked Cast But Flopped Hard
The show is only eight episodes long, yet halfway through, almost nothing meaningful has happened. It is frustrating to see such a stacked cast wasted on a story that fails to take advantage of their talent. The premise itself is interesting, but the execution falls apart almost immediately. What makes it even more baffling is that this is a Disney Plus series with several well known actors, yet the production feels as if the budget was exhausted within the first few episodes. The result is a project that looks and feels far below the level one would expect given the platform and the people involved.Was this review helpful to you?
It decent
The movie isn't a complete disappointment. It does capture some of the magic that drew audiences to the anime in the first place. However, for those who have experienced the depth, character development, and emotional rollercoaster that the anime offers, the movie might fall short of expectations. If you're a die-hard fan of the series, it's worth checking out to see how the story translates to the big screen. But if you're looking for the full, rich experience that made the anime so beloved, your time might be better spent watching the animeWas this review helpful to you?
