United Kingdom	Sammy Gecsoyler The Guardian	"There are frequent stretches of nonsense in this anime about a pop star, but with music and a central story this good, they shouldn’t bother you too much (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
Canada	Richard Eisenbeis Anime News Network (ANN)	"A surprisingly deep and emotionally affecting movie. Even if you've never seen an episode of the TV show, the film gives you all you need to connect with the core of the film (...) [It] delivering tons of action set to an absolutely amazing soundtrack"	POS
United States	Just Lunning IGN	"By heavily integrating itself with the main series and understanding the humor that makes it shine, 'Film: Red' ranks at the top of 'One Piece’s' features"	POS
United States	Peter Debruge Variety	"First-time viewers will have a tough time orienting themselves to the extensive 'One Piece' universe of characters. For the faithful, however, Uta proves an exciting new personality"	NEU
United States	Cezary Jan Strusiewicz Polygon	"[It] finds a fantastic way to upend the One Piece universe and its centerpiece may be 'One Piece’s' best movie character ever"	POS
Canada	Sam Stone CBR	"[It] offers fans some great set pieces if they can weather the musical barrage. For those looking for an accessible point to catch 'One Piece' at its best, [it], unfortunately, underutilizes the anime's usual strengths"	NEG
Canada	Francesco Cacciatore Screen Rant	"[It] gives fans exactly what they want with some added surprises and a refreshing look that stays true to the series spirit (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Simon Abrams The Wrap	"Anime fans will probably enjoy 'One Piece Film Red'. Everyone else will likely struggle with this particular action-fantasy [is] the 15th theatrically released movie adaptation of a manga series that started 25 years ago"	NEU
United States	Emma Stefansky IndieWire	"[It] sails a fine line, its story beats familiar enough for the newcomers, with details as bizarre and garish as a 'One Piece' story could possibly get"	POS
United States	Hoai-Tran Bui SlashFilm	"It has fun with itself, and that's its charm"	POS
United States	Daniel Kurland Den of Geek	"It's just truly impressive how a non-musical series makes its musical performances its greatest asset, but in a way that's still incredibly faithful to the grander nature of 'One Piece' (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Stephanie Bunbury Deadline	"This is another sort of realism: the visual pile-up makes the concert feel thrilling in the way being at a great concert actually does, while the fights are truly breathless and urgent (...) What a ride. Really, it’s a ride"	POS
United States	Brittany Vincent Decider	"This is the best film the franchise has seen by far. Not only is it accessible for newcomers, but it’s also a lengthy, engrossing journey that veterans will appreciate thanks to all the character appearances and series callbacks"	POS
