Just saw Jujutsu Kaisen 0 
For those that don't know, this is a prequel to the Jujutsu Kaisen anime and manga. And it just came out in theaters for us in the US! I'll keep my review of it spoiler-free for the most part. The few things I do mention, I'll keep as vague as possible 
It's everything we love about the series, but with romantic undertones to the narrative. It honestly kinda works here, there's something really beautiful about the contrast of the scenes in the main character's backstory compared to some of the gruesome stuff we see later on. I think it could have benefitted from being a full 2-hour-long movie to wrap up everything, but it gets by just enough to be a satisfying conclusion imo. The OST stands out so beautifully during the calmer scenes, and the animation is.. somewhat underwhelming for a film, but it's still on par with the best animation from the TV series so.. honestly, it's still visually appealing, but I'd say I hyped myself up too much with expectations tbh.. I'm gonna blame Demon Slayer and My Hero Academia for that lmao
Overall, a really good self-contained story. I'd say it's a safe enough introduction to Jujutsu Kaisen for newcomers with the exception of some action-oriented fanservice based on characters outside of the main cast of the film. And for those that are already fans of the series.. Like I said, it's the same level of quality for what you'd expect from the anime. It's a strong 7 out of 10 
an actual 7 btw.. so many people use the number as an equivalent to saying something's "okay". that's what 5 and 6 are for, mini rant over lol
