Reviews

Critics have given Kamen Rider W Forever: From A to Z a generally positive reception, especially highlighting its inventive comedic approach and brisk pacing. IMDb viewers rated the film around 6.9/10, praising its energetic performances and fan-focused content. A reviewer from Asia Pacific Arts noted that "the film captures the perfect balance of humor and heroics typical of Kamen Rider, delivering an enjoyable experience without taking itself too seriously." However, some critics pointed out that the rapid-fire laughter and comedic segments might not appeal to audiences seeking a traditional or darker superhero narrative. Rotten Tomatoes does not have a formal critical consensus for this specific title, which is common for niche tokusatsu movies, but user reviews commonly appreciate the strong chemistry between characters and the film's playful tone. Metacritic listings for this film are also sparse, reflecting its niche market, but available reviews suggest a solid score for entertainment value, particularly within its established fanbase. Overall, the movie is celebrated for its joyful spirit and as a tribute to the beloved Kamen Rider franchise, though it may resonate most strongly with existing fans familiar with the series' style and humor.
