Richard Kuipers Variety 08/01/2017
Stylishly decorated and generating all-important sympathy for a character living precariously in two worlds, director Kentaro Hagiwara's feature debut gets the drama right but is let down by visual effects that are sometimes unconvincing. Go to Full Review Drew Dietsch FANDOM 12/29/2021

It falls victim to a few anime adaptation woes but nothing damning. Go to Full Review James Mudge easternKicks.com 10/24/2020
3.5/5
Still, though flawed, there's a lot to like about Tokyo Ghoul, and it's easily one of the better films in the never-ending stream of manga adaptations Go to Full Review Panos Kotzathanasis Asian Movie Pulse 04/13/2020
"Tokyo Ghoul" is a competent adaptation that benefits much from the original material and its acting, and I would love to see how a bigger budget would be implemented in the action scenes of the (bound to come) sequels. Go to Full Review Yago García Cinemanía (Spain) 06/11/2018
3.5/5
Thus... the film ends up being a Japanese and teenage nephew of Cronenberg's version of The Fly. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Carlos Losilla Sensacine 06/08/2018

chris h @RT26751167 06/11/2024 Though being a little flawed in transition from anime to action movie.This is a great time.Could of been trimmed alittle in time,but non the less,this is a great adaptation.Well worth your time for a good time. See more 03/17/2022 A really great and for the most part, accurate translation from the anime to live action. If you are a fan of the anime definitely give this a view. See more 07/03/2020 Very clever and sometimes deep, with amazing acting and action. Highly recommend. See more 05/25/2020 The dialogue lacks the weight of the comic and the acting and editing is choppy. See more 03/10/2020 It's so amazing that i almost cried "for the first time in forever" See more 02/12/2020 I FUCKING LOVIE THIS MOVIE I CAN'T WANT NEXT MOVIE SOON!!!!!!!!!🤪🤪🤪🤪😛😛😛😛😛😜😜😜😜😜 See more Read all reviews
