Hoping to find answers as to why he has received this ability, Barker arrives at an archeological site in Utah, where scientists have uncovered an old alien spacecraft that might solve the mystery. However, the Cronos Corporation is still after him.

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.

If you love the story watch this film. The second film of the iconic graphic novel is truly a masterpiece I can watch it over and over.

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

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?

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.
