Summary: |
Naruto Uzumaki is sent to a criminal containment facility known as Hoozuki Jou (鬼灯城?, lit. "Physalis Castle") in the Hidden Grass Village after he is declared responsible for the attempted assassination of the Raikage, leader of the Hidden Cloud Village, as well as the murders of Jōnin's from the Hidden Mist Village and the Hidden Rock Village. Once there, Mui (無為?), the head of the prison, places the Tenrou o Tsukau (天牢を使う?, lit. "Sky Prison Control") seal on Naruto which limits his chakra. On the first night, Naruto uses a clone as a decoy to escape from prison. During his escape, his clone is secretly taken by Mui to have the Nine-tailed beast's chakra extracted which leads him to learn about Naruto's escape plan. Naruto is shortly recaptured and placed in solitary confinement which delays Mui's plans.
During his time in prison, Naruto befriends Ryuzetsu (竜舌?), a female ninja from the Hidden Grass Village pretending to be a male inmate. She explains Mui and a select few from the Hidden Grass Village framed Naruto to imprison him so they may extract the Nine tails' chakra to release the seal on the Box of Enlightenment which can grant any wish. Ryuzetsu also shares her plans to avenge her childhood friend Muku (無垢?), Mui's son whom was sacrificed to the box ten years prior. Naruto accepts her offer of collaboration to destroy the box before it is unsealed. They begin their plan by initiating a prison riot which distracts the guards and allows Naruto to find the room with the sealed box. He is then captured by Mui and has his chakra extracted which unlocks the box. Disregarding his collaborators commands, Mui asks the box to return his son. Muku is released from the box and is possessed by the box's demon, Satori (悟り?). He fatally wounds his father, transforms into a monster, and goes on a rampage.
Naruto enters Sage Mode but is unable to defeat it. He is assisted by his peers from the Leaf Village and Cloud Village who were aware of the Hidden Grass' plans. During the battle, Naruto and Ryuzetsu are fatally wounded. Mui regains consciousness and seals Muku with the Tenrou which gives Naruto a chance for a direct attack. Muku returns to his human form, has a short bonding experience with his father, and kills him when Satori regains control. Muku then kills himself by using the Tenrou and Satori returns to the box after his death. With Mui's death, the prisoners are free from the Tenrou and attempt to escape from prison but are quickly recaptured. As Naruto nears death, Ryuzetsu uses a technique which sacrifices her life to save him. In the aftermath, the Box of Enlightenment is thrown into the ocean and Naruto returns to his comrades after burying Mui and Ryuzetsu |

Apart from the misleading Title, Blood Prison being the 5-6 Installment in the Movie Series Around Naruto Shippuden I will now Give A detailed Report on whether this is worth it or not.
If you haven't seen my reviews I cut things up into 4 Category's and then I explain What is good And works and What bothered me. (SPOILERS ONWARD)
Story&Dialogue:
Well The story Was interesting to say the Least. It was New, Naruto Starts off attacking the Raikage In his own personal Room. Failing in assassinating him He then leaves causing the Raikage to Contact Hidden Leaf which they Arrest Naruto. Naruto flips his Lid. Gets sent to a New prison Where Everyone Is put under a seal Where it heats up your body if your restrain your chakra...This Is the whole reason Naruto Doesn't just use his ninja skills to get out. LIKED: In All of the Fucking Naruto Movies they Introduce some new stupid Semi-helpless character that Narutos Probably Going to end up saving. though Blood Prison Takes A different Approach, Introduces an ANBU black ops girl who wants to assassinate the Leader Mui. She also doesn't get saved, She dies. Blood Prison Did a good job at not following normal Naruto standards with this one. DIDN'T LIKE: Alright....Heres a major plot hole...Naruto was by himself multiple times...And if he knew Natural Energy was on the outside he could Have Easily Just used it from the beginning....I found it very hard To enjoy Narutos Incarceration When he could Easily Just Use Sage mode to get out...Dialogue Was meh, Along with the New characters Naruto was true to himself but didn't have much Epic Moments. I also found Satori Unpleasant to look at and just unrealistic to The Naruto Universe it was...But i digress, The story was interesting and different but I wasn't too fond of the new Characters and the Naruto universe Characters Just didn't have enough time.
Animation:
Not a lot to complain about here...I enjoyed seeing More of Killer bees Fight scenes and Naruto In Safe Mode was pretty Cool. It just looked like Normal Naruto Episodes But Narutos Face and body did seem a bit small in certain Situations. LIKED: I liked The fact that They Showed Many different landscapes from the actual Universe. And the Animations were all Relevant to their respective Attacks Like Kaiten, And Rasen Shuriken DISLIKED: Why...was there only leaf shinobi there with vests....There were no other Vests....for any other village...Also....Satoris movements wer crap...and it just looked stupid and Disgusting and Frail.
Entertainment:
Well I liked it Besides the things i have already stated but Nothing is perfect So i always Have a problem with something. LIKED: Alright So naruto not using 4,000 shadow clones for everything was kinda Nice. I enjoyed his different Combat Range and Summoning Gamabunta was Awesome. DISLIKED: The new Characters And The Fact Naruto could escape easily with Sage Mode at any point ruined it for me.
Conclusion: Overall Its a different and Great movie and keeps you interested Until the end. But Just Interested, Its not a movie you really get into but it has its moments. If your a naruto Fan I'd say Go for it. If you Did not Like Any Of the Previous Naruto Movies....This ones Entertainment value isn't much higher then Them.
