I personally think this is a good movie. As in, it's a typical Japanese movie with emphasis and exaggeration on the gestures, facial expressions, the eyes and the hair and the eyebrows - which at times may be dramatic and funny or silly but it's okay I get it. The plot is also predictable but again I think it's a typical Japanese way of presentation on optimism and positivity and the never-give-up spirit. At least the fights are very well presented and nicely shot. I'm not sure why the overall rating is this low, this movie definitely deserves more appreciation and positive reviews. I enjoyed the two-hour movie and didn't think a minute was wasted. Very entertaining overall.

Where to start? The last H&L movie I saw was "DTC -Yukemuri Junjo Hen- from HiGH&LOW" which left such a sour taste in my mouth I gave it a 1/10 wishing I could have given it a 0. A "H&L" movie without any fights and without any of the kick-ass music we've come to expect. A truly awful experience. Unforgettably bad.
So, coming into this, I was worried to say the least (I had not realized H&L:The Worst actually came after that movie - But it still had its problems, namely the forced humor centered around a certain female character). I needn't have worried, though. This movie brings back the relentless fighting and music that, while it doesn't surpass the original tunes, is still pretty good (and for fans of the original films' music... there are a few treats). This one is all about the team-ups, though, and we get that killer crossover that was hinted at in the first :The Worst film. And it's pretty sweet!
The whole thing is truly ridiculous. The characters are caricatures, the fighting is completely over the top, it's probably a bit too long, and the story is... umm, is there a story? Well, stories are overrated. I had a blast watching this!

The action scenes in this movie is top notch! I loved the choreography. It felt like a breath of fresh air from the typical Hollywood action. I liked that every character had drip and is fashionable. This movie has a unique style to it. H&L the Worst had better large group fights between the schools but the Worst X had better individual fights. I especially liked how the fights are very rugged and brawl-like. It is exaggerated but still feels somewhat realistic. The story is very surface level. It's not very deep and it is kinda predictable but I think it works for a movie like this. There was a character that everyone thought was a brutal, scary fighting machine but there was a twist to him that I thought was pretty well done. The cast of characters were good. It made me like and care about them. This is the type of movie that's like a popcorn flick and it's not supposed to be anything deep or thought provoking. Overall I had a lot of fun watching it.

This film is very good, there are a lot of characters but they all get the right portion. The development of each character here is also quite fitting. It's a pretty good continuation of High & Low compared to The Worst (2019) which is sorely lacking in storytelling. The choreography, musical arrangements, visuals, and others deserve thumbs up. A big thank you to the cast and behind-the-scenes film crew who worked together to create a sequel that was so much fun to watch. I hope that in the next films old characters can reappear and meet new characters, it will definitely be a big surprise for the audience.
This movie really gives a big breakthrough than the previous movie. Many new characters from schools outside or in SWORD appear. And apparently, most of them have a past with the characters from the previous movie.
High and low The Worst X Cross is nice movie.
- This film has an interesting story.
- Although it has a lot of characters, the introduction and character development is done quite well.
- I love how this film shows every corner of the school building.
- the bgm used is really nice to hear.
- The producer also does not limit the information of each character by creating a character information website.
High and low The Worst X Cross is nice movie.
Everything is there, the music,cinematography ,action, comedy, is all 10/10,you must watch high&low the series first, just check the watch order of the series+movies, this series is amazing, bring back memories as kid when I watch crows zero,
All of character is amazing and not annoying yeah even the villain in this movie is amazing character, everyone have their story, a perfect example of side characters,usually action movies is boring with regular fight, but not in high&low, yes you need watch all of them, I recommended you if you like this kind of movie Also if you fans of kpop who only watch this movie because of him, you need to watch high&low worst 1.

Despite having seen a lot of spoilers on the internet, the sensation from watching the movie directly at the theater is just different. The story is easy to understand even if you don't watch the previous series, but it makes even more sense if you do. Each character acts out their role very well in the movie, its like they were born to have such roles. In my opinion, it doesn't matter if you are watching it alone or with conpany, it is still a very intense movie to enjoy, moreover, this movie will soon be available on Netflix for the fans all over the world to watch it. Overall, it was an amazing experience.
