Note: This version of the film is
now deleted. However, the film is still available in the Neon Genesis
Evangelion Movies Boxset from Manga Entertainment Wow! And I’ll say it again – wow, wow, wow, wow and erm
wow! This is a truly brilliant feat of animation, acting, style and pizzazz. It
is a true labour of magnificent love.
This film answers many of the the questions left on the tip of fan’s tongues all
over the world after the series ended and this different look at the final
episode of the series answers many of them as well as adding some new ones. The
sequences in this film are handled well from the calm of flashbacks to the
frantic action of battle and the heartfelt emotion of arguments resolved and
relationships healed. This film also leaves the viewer with a fair share of
heart and soul searching as it pins down your own beliefs whilst questioning
what you believe are the revelations given by the film.
This is a psychological tour de force. Religiously and emotionally with touching
and violent overtones, the conclusion will leave the viewer never feeling quite
the same again.
