Summary: Speechless
Review: This was one of the first anime I'd seen... years ago, before I became a huge otaku... I was completely unfamiliar with the series, the characters, or the plot. Needless to say, I didn't get it upon the first viewing, but I watched the movie several times, until I finally got a grasp on what was happening. I have to say that even though the animation is not the most detailed - certainly no Jin-Roh or Cowboy Bebop: Knockin' on Heaven's Door - on every viewing there were details, shots or scenes that I hadn't noticed before... All in all, every time you watch this bittersweet movie you will see more of its beauty, its nostalgia, its humor, its philosophy, and its strangeness. And herein lies its brilliance.---
Bonus points for the amazing soundtrack by the Grand Daddy himself, Kenji Kawai ("Ghost in the Shell," "Avalon," "Vampire Princess Miyu," "Patlabor" movies... need I go on?)

Summary: Come Again?
Review: This, in my opinion, was a very entertaining anime. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is its generally difficult storyline to grasp. Yet, the fact it is difficult to understand the storyline creates the element of unpredictability. Overall, I enjoyed it, and I would reccomend it to anyone interested in anime. END

Summary: The Perfect Primer for MAMORU OSHII films
Review: To understand and appreciate the richness and depth of Oshii's creations, you must experience this film. On the facade, it is simply another cartoon animation. But once under the surface, you'll find a much much more complex world of imagination.
Take this as the primer elixir. Oh. I forgot to stress how lucky you are to get hold of this film in DVD. In Japan, the Laser Disc and VHS videos have gone out of production, and for some reason or another, the DVD edition has not been released. In other words, this is the only legitimate release of DVD in the whole wide world. Enjoy!! +----+----+----+
In 2003 the DVD for the Japanese market was finally released.

Summary: Not the best Urusei Yatura
Review: Unfortunately, for me, this movie didn't portray the wacky, loveable characters nearly as good as the television series did. If you get a chance, check out the television episodes. Now those are funny.
