Summary: Char's Counterattack: The Gundam movie you don't want to mis
Review: I won't beat around the bsuh, thsi movie is incredible. First off, the charcacters are complex yet simple, understandable but deep. Passion, vengence, love, hatred, every emetion you could possibly think or miagine. The story is very good, there are some gripes about the ending, but frankly some people can't live without an ending without knowing everything that happened. People don't like this Quess person either? Well, she is annoying, but she is stupid, and everything comes back to those people. The mobile suit battles are crazy, even the mass produced suits have creative ways, missles from their shields, waists, guns, vulcan guns, and the new types are amazing. Seing the funnels fly while they battle is amazing, watching Newtypes is truely mind expanding, and Amuro vs. Char is greater than ever. To summarize, this movie has everything a good movie should have, its a drama, with just as much action lots of battles, lots of passion, lots of people should buy this movie....

Summary: Mobile Suit Gundam Char's Counterattack: A film worth seeing
Review: Mobile Suit Gundam Char's Counterattack takes place in the year Universal Century (UC) 0093, some 14 years after the devestating One-Year War ended (Mobile Suit Gundam). In this new war, Char Aznable (a.k.a. Casval Deikum) leads the forces of Neo-Zeon in an attempt to render Earth uninhabitable by dropping asteroids onto its surface, thus creating a nuclear winter. To oppose him is Amuro Ray of the Earth Federal Forces unit Londo Bell.Amuro, using the Federation's RX-93 Nu Gundam, must engage Char, who pilots the MSN-04 Sazabi, in a final conflict that will decide the fate of all mankind. This movie is packed with stunning mobile suit battles and a very intruiging plot. Nearly every character in this story is complex, even the characters Astanosh and Kira. The story itself is riddled with government conspiricies and there are twists at every corner, making for a very enjoyable two hours. Gundam fans will enjoy this tale, which finally closes the curtain upon the raging conflict between Amuro and Char. If there is one thing that I do find at fault in this movie, it's that the character Quess Paraya is extremely annoying, and her thoughts make no sense, especially when she tries to make observations about humanity. Quess aside, the movie is excellent and a must-have for all Gundam fans. Hell, even non-Gundam fans might enjoy it.

Summary: Amazing!
Review: THIS IS GUNDAM! You see the episodes of any Mobile Suit Gundam and you might think that this is just like Gundam Wing
"Endless Waltz", Which was an ok movie, but alot of the script lines didn't make MUCH SENSE. This movie is the ONLY best Gundam move out there, And, If you do buy this, I'll say this.
First, You have very good taste Second, What an ending! This ending of this movie will put a lump in your throat. But i'm not saying it has a sad ending

Summary: Best Gundam film EVER.
Review: Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's counter attack begins right up with familar characters, if you have seen Mobile Suit Gundam you will know Amuro Rei and Char Aznable right away, throught "Mobile Suit Gundam" and "Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam" the characters had times where they not only fought agaisnt each other, but along side each other. This time Amuro Rei is thrown in with Char Aznable in one last clash of the titans (Excuse the Zeta gundam Pun) this movie is actually more of a two hour space brawl, the action, both fight wise and character wise is amazing, not only do we get to see great robots like the "Nu gundam" and "Refined Zeta gundam" fighting against robots such as "Sazabi" (Which by the way, the Master Grade Sazabi is one of the bigest 1\100th scale models there are.) and the other Neo Zeon mechs, we are introduced to new characters like Quess Pyra and Gyunei, but also we have Bright Noah, from the origanal and Zeta gundam, Mirai from MSG\Zeta, and Bright Noah's son Hathaway, from Zeta Gundam, who is all grown up now. We also get to see the green ball robot "Haro" again, overall the movie provides a great atmopshere, an unbelivable chemistry between characters devoloped in SUCH a short time, great mech battles, with that said great MECHS, and the ending was one of the most fufilling endings I have ever seen. 5\5, pick this and the original mobile suit gundam Movie set, you will not regret it.

Summary: The reason Mobile Suit Gundam was made!
Review: This is the final and ultimate battle between Amuro Ray and Char Aznable (aka Casval Rem Daikun). When Zeon rises again as the Neo Zeon independence movement led by Char, the Earth Federation reformed after the end of the Titans conflict is left with only Londo Bell led by Bright Noa and Amuro Ray to combat the threat of the asteroid fortress Axis that is going to be dropped on the Earth and force humanity into space. This movie is about as climatic as you can get and it is really the ending to the UC saga. Char's Counterattack is easily the best Gundam movie and maybe even the best Gundam series. Buy this, you will not be dissapointed.

Summary: Overrated, but still good
Review: While a good movie, I think that CCA had a lot of potential but did not fully use it. First off, I think that they should have released Zeta and ZZ before this movie, since I see a lot of reviews here complaining about things that have an explanation in Zeta or ZZ, such as why Hayato Kobayashi is not in this movie. I would highly recommend watching at least Zeta first; and since it will soon be released that shouldn't be too much of a problem! Anywho, my main problem with this movie are the characters. Char and Amuro seem horribly out-of-character; in fact, it's as if they switched personalities. Char becomes whiney, and Amuro becomes mature and calculated. It's nice to see Bright back to his old authoritative self (after that embarassing role in ZZ), and Astonauge is always welcome in a Gundam series. Someone said that CCA is too focused around the stupid annoying kids, and I'll agree there. Quess is annoying, and not even that pretty, and Hathaway just makes me want to slap him (even his own father can't resist!) Although someone earlier called Hathaway unimportant, which is simply not true: he is the star of a novel that takes place when he is older, and these events in CCA inspire his behaviour in said novel. Hathaway may not have been one, but CCA did have its throwaway characters. Gyunei, for example, who may have been cute but was absolutely useless; as well as Rezin (the girl who hates Newtypes) and Chan/Chein. Don't get me started on her; her only personality was that she loved Amuro. I much preferred Beltochika from Zeta, who was Amuro's love interest in the CCA novels. Even Nanai's existence was pretty pointless... and I hate to include Mirai in this list, but they did not have to show her that much. In fact, I wish that they could come up with something more creative than "Mirai tries to get to the colonies due to impending problems on Earth" since that was done in Zeta as well. A little upsetting, considering that she piloted a war ship in her younger years. Cameron shows up though, which is greatly amusing since he seems rather bitter towards Bright. Hehe. I'd call Kaira useless, since it seems like they only made her so they could cause tragedy for Astonauge. Which is just mean; Astonauge has been through enough! Did anyone else find Lalah haunting Char and Amuro weird.. 'cause I sure as heck did. I didn't see her ghost before then, did she just get bored in the afterlife and decide to start? Anyway, every UC fan should see this movie at least once, but it is rather disappointing if you are expecting another MSG or Zeta.

Summary: THE Mech movie!
Review: 1979-1993 or so was probably the Golden Era of the Mobile Suit Gundam Franchise, (Not to say I do not like the ones beyond 1993's "Victory Gundam.) in that time the all time classic "Mobile Suit Gundam" and the dark sequal "Mobile Suit Gundam: Zeta" and its Sequal "Mobile Suit ZZ (Double Zeta) Gundam" came out. Following right behind the 47 (Or so) episode series "ZZ Gundam" the epic motion picture "Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counter Attack" came out. I personally think no Mech anime fan should go without the Classic Gundam and this film. The motion picture is really a 2 and a half hour space battle, but considering the film is about as long as 4 or 5 episodes they managed to devolop characters in that time, such as Gyunei, who tries to win the affection of Quess Pyra, who craves a father figure so she joins the Neo Zeon. At times CCA seems more like a space drama then a mech anime, how ever CCA has the emotional and great fight scenes to go with it, now while the fight does not seem as "full scale" as some of the fight scenes in "Mobile Suit Gundam SEED" the fights do carry them selves very well, but they do not get to the point where the entire movie is just fight. As I mentiond characters before I must state that the rivalry between Char Aznable and Amuro Rei is amazing and you get a real sense of conflict between the two. The music helps a lot! It makes the fight scenese truley amazing, and I almost cried at the end when the amazing track "Beyond the Time" began to play. The DVD features I love, there is a Biblography of all the novels anime and other things Tomino, the creator of the franchise has worked on, the DVD comes with a slip cover, and a fancy booklet with the history of the events leading up to the film. Would I suguest this? Of course, how ever I think that it may be best to watch Mobile Suit Gundam, and maybe Zeta Gundam before this, just so you can get a real sense of the existing characters.

Summary: My favorite anime movie!
Review: Please note that if you havn't at least seen the original Mobile Suit Gundam you should stay away from this movie. Watching Zeta Gundam will help you enjoy this movie even more as well. But if you havn't seen them and you wanna watch very good mecha action then go for it. This is the final battle of Char and Amuro. Char Aznable is my favorite anime character. To see them battle is so intense, after all these years it ends. It just blows my mind. Many people will be confused by this movie, the ending will really confuse people. But if you watch it enough times you'll understand more and more. Don't worry tho, this is a movie you can watch over & over anyway.

Summary: Char's Counterattack good movie-sequel to shows.
Review: First of all if you like the original gundam-released in both a 3 movie version and in a series-then you will like this film. The movie features impresive space battles, topics from the previous Gundams, and all the old crew; those that survived Zeta and zzGundam that is. The special features are almost nonexistance, though there is a very handy booklet that has a timeline on MSG, G 0080, G 0083, Zeta G and ZZ G. If you are a gundam fan and you haven't seen MSG Char's Conterattack do so.
