BEHOLD. A HERO WE ALL NEED. HENTAI KAMEN. PERVERT OF JUSTICE.
When I first found out about Hentai Kamen I didn't have any high expectations. The story was ridiculous and honestly I decided to watch if for the lols. I had no idea what to do that day and the only thing that came to mind was Hentai Kamen. I watched the first movie years ago and it didn't leave such impact on me as the second one. But this one, I swear to god, was just pure thrill ride. Who even has the imagination to come up with such a story? And how would be crazy enough to adapt it into a movie? I am grateful to those people and I honestly respect the actors, especially the main guy. Just look at what he's wearing. Literally almost nothing. :^) And ideas like that can only come from Japan. Thank you Japan, this is why I love you.
The story revolves around this guy who fights evil while wearing used panties that give him powers. It's just a generic shounen like movie. The main guy is the hero, he has to fight a villain to save his loved one. While watching it I felt like I was looking a mix of Spiderman, Naruto and *insert any shounen anime here*. While the story isn't really perfect or unusual, well the visuals are. I think they did a pretty good job, though there were scenes that could look more awesome. And the best thing in the movie is of course our perverted hero, Hentai Kamen. He's wearing nothing more than half of the screen time and those close-ups are something too and his smooth skin, his actor really did a great job for sticking up with it, even with the second movie. Another jewel is the humour and those dumb ass situations. When I first encountered japanese comedy (mostly anime and then this), I had to admit that they have a pretty unusual sense of humour, it's quite unique and not everybody can like it. For me, thankfully, I strated to like it and all credits go to a certain anime that is mostly comedy with a lot of nonsense. Hentai Kamen is a perfect example of japanese comedy style with a touch of well, perversion I guess. The whole story is revolving around how much of a pervert he is and how can he use this powers to help save Japan.
For the acting. The actors did a pretty good job. As I said before, all the respect for the main actor because he was just amazing. From potraying normal college student to the pervert of justice with his weird movements and poses. From my experience (I haven't watched many movies and dramas) japanese acting, especially with movies that are adapted from anime or manga, can sometimes get overboard. This wasn't an exception. I do understand the need to create the movie very similar to manga, but the way they spoke and acted sometimes put me off. It would most certanily fit into anime, but you're in a movie, dude. Not to blame them though, they did a pretty good job. All of them.
What I really liked about the both movies is the music. Firstly I am thankful I decided to watch the first movie. Because if I didn't I wouldn't have find an amazing japanese band that is now one of my favourites. And secondly the music fit the movie, from the soundtrack to the ending song. I'm not saying they created some really outstanding music but they made a good choice for creating a soundtrack that goes together so good with the movie.
That is all from me. This was actually my first review and probably the last one, but hey I did my best. I just wanted to express my thoughts about the whole movie because it was an unforgetful experience for me. I recommend this movie to all the people that love comedy and want to watch something different, something unusual. And Hentai Kamen lives up to the name. If you have ran out of ideas of what to watch and are in need of something else, to just laugh at stupid situations and gestures, then watch this movie. You won't regret it. :^) It will either leave good impact on you or you'll hate it to death. Because this is Hentai Kamen, in all of his greatness and all of his flawness.
