Almar Haflidason BBC.com Rated: 2/5 Apr 25, 2001 Full Review Ed Travis Cinapse What Guyver: Dark Hero trades in to great success is brilliantly captured, agile, hard-hitting martial arts choreography which makes these... practical monster suits look awesome, allowing for "man in suit" martial arts that are pretty much unrivaled. Aug 29, 2021 Full Review Felix Vasquez Jr. Cinema Crazed A simple and entertaining B grade action film... Jun 27, 2013 Full Review Read all reviews

Anderson O This was a stronger entry to the franchise. Guyver 2 is more faithful to the source material, better action, stunt and choreography scenes as well as musical score than the first. Supporting cast are much stronger than lead David Hayter and the main characters personal struggles with the bio boosted Armor. For martial arts action this is a great one to watch. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/03/24 Full Review Faye S A lot longer that the original, with a different cast of actors trying to tell a sequel story, and somehow it also slaps hard. It has a few lulls here and there, which is to be expected from a two hour movie, but it just gets better and better. Also features a young David Hayter, what's not to love? Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/27/23 Full Review Audience Member LOL, the greatest movie by a Japanese director!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member Low budget but the effects are well done and fights well choreographed, a unique and interesting sci fi flick Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review joseph b Awesome film and a huge step up from the original and more in-line with the Manga series of the character and mytho's. David Hayter stands out as the leading man along with the amazing martial arts fight scenes between the guyver and zoanoids, the final fight was very similar to the battle of the two guyvers animated story. Very entertaining film with a darker edge. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Better than the first live action prequel to it.. But still more wretched than a stye. Hollyood has destroyed every single western live action anime movie on purpose. ALL OF THEM. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
