Kpop Demon Hunters
Huntr/x (pronounced “Huntrix”) is a popular K‑pop girl group by day—and powerful demon hunters by night. They maintain a magical barrier (the Honmoon) that keeps demons sealed from the human world. The evil Demon King Gwi‑Ma sends the Saja Boys, a devilish rival boy band, to siphon fans and weaken the barrier. Their rise threatens to unleash demons into the world. Rumi, Huntr/x’s lead vocalist, is secretly half‑demon and losing her voice—putting the barrier and the mission at risk.
Review
I love kpop music. Okay, I mostly listen to Blackpink, but every now and then I also listen to other kpop artists/groups. I also love watching k-drama, so it would make sense that I would watch this animation movie right? At first, I wasn’t sure if I wanted to watch it. Then I saw others liking this movie and I also saw that the actor from ‘Business Proposal’ is the voice actor of Juni in this movie.
I don’t watch a lot of animation films to be honest. Although, I am going to watch Lilo & Stich (the animation version) very soon. It is a shame I still haven’t watched that movie. Anyway, I still decided to give this a try and wow, this movie was so cool and amazing.
Let’s talk about the things I liked about this movie. First of all, the music in this movie is incredible. I loved every single song in this one and I even had to look up if the songs were available on Spotify and yes they are available! The songs were definitely giving me kpop vibes and I loved it. One song I even recognized from the Business proposal. It was the song ‘Love, maybe’ by Melomance.
The visuals were incredible, the cast is wonderful and likable. I loved the friendship between the three girls. All three girls have different personalities, but they work so good together. And sometimes it was even funny.
Yes, I can definitely recommend this movie. Even when you are not into K-pop at all. It was a fun movie. It is not too long. It was just the perfect length. There are a lot of reviews on IMDB for this movie and most of them want a sequel and I have to agree with them. Or I would even be okay with a similar movie with different characters. This was a fun watch.
