The thing I like about Boruto, funny enough, was said in the SD spin off.

Sasuke told him his shadow clone size was pathetic since Naruto can make hundreds, which Boruto replies, it doesn't matter how much I make, as long as it gets the job done.

I hope Kishimoto applies that line of thinking if he ever continued the series, I don't want to see shadow clone spam, Boruto has too much potential for that. His prodigy status was depleted because he was extremely lazy, he found shortcuts, and never trained hard enough. Even after getting a Shishou, he still used the device to impress Sasuke so he wouldn't leave him.

He didn't believe in himself, and that's one of the core problems of his character which I admire.

The thing I don't like about the movie is the redemption of his character and his cheating, he does help against Momoshiki but it's not enough. Him making a regular Rasengan at the end isn't it either, he should of been shown fighting with his own skills.

You'll see what I mean when you watch the movie, there are things that Boruto does when the device that he can do on his own thanks to Sasuke. I think Kishimoto went overboard with the device, it overshadowed what he can really do and took away what really makes him special.
