One audience member writes, “I put this movie off for a few months until I remembered it existed. It has classic and plain tropes that successfully generate into a beautiful message and story. On top of the quality animation and catchy songs, Sony Animation continues to reign the animation industry.” Another member adds, “Fantastic Four was great, Superman was a complete knockout that singlehandedly will invigorate the DCU brand for years.. but K-Pop Demon Hunters is, despite its kitschy-cringe name, is absolutely the movie of the summer—if not the year, and maybe more."
They continue, "The fact that the original songs from the soundtrack attributed to fictional K-pop acts have completely dominated the charts for weeks now, and that a super limited one-weekend theater run where the explicit goal was to have people who have ALREADY SEEN THE FILM MANY TIMES to shell out close to $20 a ticket each to see this movie on the big screen and turn their theaters into little concert venues, full-throatedly belting out the songs and laughing and crying in their seats…these are a testament to the movie's staying power, and I for one hope this trend continues into the future."
I, too, have had K-Pop Demon Hunters on my streaming list for months, so I need to give it a watch.
You can stream K-Pop Demon Hunters on Netflix.
