"Where Jujutsu Kaisen: Execution absolutely excels for both fans and the uninitiated is in its visuals and sound design. Intense, bombastic showdowns incorporate everything from gore to monsters to visual design of earth-shattering beauty. The apocalyptic cityscapes, ominous sunsets and genuinely eerie subway battle sequences pulsate with off-the-wall creatures and grotesque villains. The soundtrack is genuinely banging, accompanied by really top notch voice acting."
"One thing that would be very helpful and is regrettably lacking is a Star Wars-style scroll plainly laying out the backstory in simple terms for unfamiliar viewers. Sure, the TV show compilation does a bit of that, but it also feels like trying to download a thousand years of lore into your head, while simultaneously having your mind boggled by wild visions of conflict in the underworld."
Jujutsu Kaisen: Execution opens with a super-edit that stitches together chunks from many hours of the TV series, then follows with new episodes played as a single cinema presentation. The format blurs movie and TV boundaries, but the experience primarily delivers spectacular, imaginatively staged battle sequences. The film lacks a clear, concise backstory for newcomers, and the TV compilation can feel like downloading a thousand years of lore while presenting overwhelming visions of underworld conflict. The production excels in visuals, sound design, soundtrack, and voice acting, offering apocalyptic cityscapes, eerie subway fights, grotesque villains, and intense, bombastic showdowns. The film is out on 14 November in the UK, 4 December in Australia, and 5 December.
