Just finished watching it, and it is indeed very good. Some may complain at the lack of heroes, but I can look past that due to the fact that I like it better than the first in pretty much every regard.
This is what the first Taisen should have been IMO, and if not setting the world record for most suit actors on screen at once is what it takes, then I think it's more than worth it.

Story-wise, this was by faaaaar better than the first one. It had some really touching moments in it actually and didn't consist of pointless battles just to kill each other for no good reason. The action was okay, but I was really disappointed that we didn't have ALL the Rangers and Riders appear as in the previous one. However, I liked their little team-ups throughout the movie, there was a lot more interaction compared to the original.
It's true we had a hell lot of Gavan though, not much of Rider (though Wizard DID have some screentime) and very few of Kyoryuger- as for the rest of Sentai, we had at least Gai and Youko as main characters, but I was kinda disappointed that only Kotoha had a cameo- after all, we would have had the actors for GekiViolet, Battle Kenya and DenjiBlue.
The other Super Heroes appearances were a nice idea, but not really spectacular. But it had a nod on the Fourze and Wizard Movie Taisen with Inazuman calling Gentaro "sensei" (though it wasn't explained how Inazuman came to the future. Fail).
Also, Gai referenced the Gokaiger Finale, just in the right moment of the movie. Nice job there.
Overall, I kinda liked it.

If they keep improving the movies at this rate, I'm pretty optimistic that we might get an awesome SHT sometime in the future.

I've had some time to mull over Z and due to the thankful lack of that troll DiEnd (May he never come back!), more character interactions and a few touching scenes I'll give it a 3 out of 5.

Hopefully the trend of improving the SHT movies continues and we'll get a great one the next time they decide to do this.

May DiEnd stay banished forever.

It can only go up after the first one, right?

Watched the movie and damn it was miles better the previous one. Where the first one felt like a bad fan fic wirtten by a fifteen year old in his moms basement this one actually felt like a real movie,

The Story was consistent throughout and didnt have that many plotholes and character inconsistencys like the first SHT did. I also really liked that the heroes worked together this time and werent trying to kick each others asses. The only thing that really bothered me was that the space sherriffs were giant dicks.
And the moste impressive thing about the movie was that I actually cared about Yoko once in my life. Why couldnt she be that good of a character in her own show?
And another character I really loved and who had my favorite lines in the movie....man I cant believe I´m actually saying this....I reallly,really,reallly loved Kamen Rider Beast in this one.

The Movie wasnt perfect but a giant improvement from the first one so lets all hope they make a third one so we can have a really damn good crossover next year

Yes, but they'll never be good so long as Yonemura and Kaneda are still in charge of them.

My thoughts: NEEDS MORE SENTAI!!!!

[Matrixbeast]

...Why was there no GekiViolet? We even had his actor back...I'm not asking for Gou to show up out of suit, but why couldn't GekiViolet be present?

Anyway, it wasn't as bad as the first, it was tolerable and I can actually picture myself being interested enough to watch it again. I'm glad they just ran with Let's Go Kamen Rider's explanation for the existence of other heroes, "They exist" without having some overblown crap like the first one. The story was actually able to be followed and it was nice to have an actual plot.

There wasn't much in the way of an actual crossover for the majority of the movie, though. Gavan loses his powers in the first act and the second act has Haruto just...Disappearing. It was just Yoko and Gai, with Beast showing up here and there. It did allow to have a better focus on character, though. And the Sentai and Riders showing up were still really cool (More so in the middle than the actual climax).

Oh, and Daigo pulling a sword on Haruto for no reason? Loved it

As someone who enjoyed the first film pretty good for what it was, I also liked this one. Just another fun zany team-up that makes no sense and has some great one off stuff. The Dino mecha blast from the Sentai Ring, the Metal Hero Gokai Change, love crazy shit like that.

[ZeoRangerV]

Well, that turned out to actually be a pretty good movie. The small main cast made things a lot more conhesive and the team up bits had better focus than the random bits of colour they were in the last film. Liveman and Amazon? YES PLEASE.

My biggest problem was just how dickish the Space Sheriffs are. I mean I already knew Geki was a pretty unlikeable guy from his last two outings, but seeing Kenji Ohba playing Retsu as a complete douchebag was pretty bizarre. Granted I haven't seen much of the original Gavan but what I have seen he certainly didn't come across as that kinda guy.

Other than he scuffle with Gavan, I swear Gai was only here to get through introductions quickly that man must have a pretty impressive phone book.
