The iconic "gentleman thief" Lupin III returns in an action-packed, continent-spanning adventure, as Lupin III and his colourful underworld companions race to uncover the secrets of the mysterious Bresson Diary before it falls into the hands of a dark cabal that will stop at nothing to resurrect the Third Reich. The gang undertakes trap-filled tombs, aerial escapades and daring prison escapes with the trademark wit and visual finesse that have made "Lupin the Third" one of the most storied animation franchises in the world, in a thrilling new caper that is sure to delight fans old and new.

Excellent animation by Japanese standards, on par even Pixar and Disney. Visually, Lupin is a really fancy thing that is definitely for adults. This is my first experience with a movie adaptation of Lupin, but I believe it works well as the dreaded thief. The story's not bad, but the humour was lacking and there was less action than I would have liked. I'm not really the target audience, but Lupin was still fun to watch. Story***, Action***, Humor**, Violence>No, Entertainment****, Music***, Visual*****, Atmosphere***, Suspense**. 6.5/10.
