Summary: Amazing Movie!!!
Review: Oh Heavens, what an amazing movie! This movie not only captured the sweet and wonderful personality of Belldandy but it also gives you an intirely new look at the life of the kind Goddess before she becaome a Goddess. The story is well told and easy to follow, the english dubbing is great and the whole thing is very well animated. This movies is something that the whole family could enjoy.

Review: There is only one way to describe this movie--jaw-dropping. Visually it is a work of art. The storyline is original, well-explained, and even manages to fit in with the creator's skewed idea of Norse mythology. The voice acting in both versions is top-notch. I wish I could give this more than just five stars!

Summary: Cool
Review: I'm not a big fan of the Oh! My Goddes series. I thought it was really sappy. However, the movie is among my favorite anime films of all time. Instead of being happy all the time Beldandy and Keiechi's relationship takes a tragic turn. Heaven is in chaos and they have nowhere to turn to for help. And to top it off the Earth is at the brink of destruction by a forced evolution.

The graphics are excellent and the sound is superb. Also the scene "Beldandy vs Urd" is without a doubt the most artistic fight scene i've ever seen in any genre of anime or film. It was only between two characters and it had a epic and urgent feel that had me on the edge of my seat. Rent or buy this movie! You will enjoy it.

Summary: the Special Edition is well worth the price
Review: The Ah! My Goddess! the Movie Special Edition(Oh! My Goddess! if you're especially particular) is simply amazing. It is easily one of my favorite animated films of all time, even beating out the majority of Miyazaki and Disney animated films. It's definitely my favorite animation outside of Miyazaki's works.

However, I STRONGLY discourage any and everyone from even considering the dubbed VHS. To put it simply, the dubbing is, well, God-awfully terrible. Never in my life have I heard a set of voice actors/actresses that believed LESS in what they were doing, not to mention having as little talent and appropriateness for the roles which they are supposed to portray as these people. Admittedly, I never made it past several dialogues by the main characters (Keiichi and Belldandy) to hear the voice acting for the secondary characters (Uld, Skuld, and the Motor Club).

Closing thoughts? While I may seem like a purist, an anime geek, or even *gasp* a zealot (I definitely am an anime geek), I cannot, in good conscience, reccomend the English voice acting for ANY Ah! My Goddess video.

Besides, as a local cinema marquee proclaims: "Subtitles build reading skills."

I highly recommend this film: gorgeous animation, a beautiful, heart-wrenching storyline, originality, imagination...

Good luck and enjoy!

Summary: Awesome anime!
Review: Its been a while since I purchased any anime because all they do is scream, shout, power up, kill, and at times simply doesn't have a very strong plot. However, this movie proof to be different for its plot revolved around the determination to challenge the will of heaven by creating a new world for human race.

O yeah, that extra feature for the mini-goddess ... FUNNY!!

Summary: Why'd they change Keiichi?
Review: Plot: Belldandy, Keiichi, Urd and Skuld having been living happily, when Belldandy loses her memory of Keiichi due to a virus implanted into the Goddess System. Belldandy's old mentor, Celestin (who had been imprisoned for trying to overthrow the Goddess System) is responsible. Belldandy has to get her memories back in time to stop Celestin. There's also a character, Morgan, who seems to want to steal Keiichi away from Belldandy.

My thoughts: I wouldn't recommend watching the movie unless you've seen the OVA (or read the manga). The Goddess System is a little strange, some things happen that are predictable, but the idea of Belldandy's mentor was nice, and we get to see her angel. The characters of Celestin and Morgan were designed well, but I don't like how they changed the way Keiichi and Urd look. Keiichi is adorable in the OVA, but here he's a bit weird looking. Urd's hair in the OVA is much better. It's good, especially if you're a fan of AMG, but it gets four stars instead of five because of the predictability and the change in Keiichi and Urd (who are my two favorite characters in AMG).
