The Times (UK)

KPop Demon Hunters articulates these battles in metaphor, and it also offers a giddy, glowing and eventually roaring release.

New Statesman

The most disturbing element of Demon Hunters is the subtle message that keeps poking through its bright, frenetic surface: that there’s nothing wrong, or even essentially exploitative, about contemporary fame.

Empire Magazine

An animated film showing you “how it’s done, done, done” — as HUNTR/X would put it — this is a stunning musical treat, a joy for all ages. Now warm up the vocal cords and bring on the sequel.

Rated: 4/5

This movie was near perfection due to good story, great character, and great animation. The songs are the biggest highlights. These songs where you can hear the songs over and over due to high energy and catchiness. The best song is Golden. While movie first released on Netflix, this theater is worthy for experience as the song along event. The only issue is the last act feel bit rushed they could make it a bit long to show how the main character can change of heart and reconcile.
