Jay W @RT52162311 Nov 20, 2024 Let me get your expectations in check. The "VS." part of the title is just a lie. Not even in the common marketing trope of "vs." selling better, I mean these two characters never do fight. In fact, their screentime together is fairly limited. Almost to a hilarious degree. It is like every time they could cross paths, another character comes along and pulls them apart. By my calculations, Lupin and Conan interact in less than 2% of the runtime of this film. With that in mind...I still really liked this film. This movie is more a Conan project than a typical Lupin adventure. It is focused more on the mystery aspect and less on the heist. There are various twists and turns, alliances are questioned, motives are changed. It is impressive how much is going on in the story but how it never manages to lose its audience in the shuffle. Although Lupin and Conan don't interact that much, most of the other supporting cast members, like Fujiko and Jigen, cross over with the Conan crew. The movie does some new twists on old stories, some funny character interactions and a compelling mystery thrown in there too. Plus, it has a cool throwback that I'm not going to dare spoil here. Let's hope that these two cross paths again some time. See more Read all reviews
