Summary: Sailor Moon
Review: I found this movie very enjoyable.
It has many events going on during the whole thing, so it doesn't just stick to one idea and get boaring.
You could say it is all about Snow Queen Kaguya trying to freeze earth over, or you could say it is all about Luna falling in love with a human. But really, it is both. The two end up tying together in the end.
There is even a little comedy in the movie. There are two distinct parts I remember finding some humor in.
People who are fans of Luna (Serina's cat) will enjoy this movie because it has a lot to do with her. But even if you are not a fan of Luna, and just like Sailor Moon, you will probably like this movie, too.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Evil Ice versus Cosmic Power
Review: This movie is good eventhough not as good as the first movie.The story line is a bit slow compares to the first movie but with the united of all the sailor senshi except Saturn,this movie is still great!!I really love the preach Sailormoon gave to the Ice Princess during their final battle....really touched my heart.And the fighting scene were great...just that why didn't Uranus and Neptune used their holy weapon(well that's what their called in the manga translated into malay)?And poor Saturn...is she too powerful to fight along the sailor senshis?Well those are the lack of the movie but the rest are still good.Sailormoon's otaku should buy this movie and watch it plenty of time like me hehe...the animation is good,better than the first movie.Buy it coz you won't regret it!!

Summary: Sailormoon's power of Love
Review: I Love this video sooooooo much! I want to see it again. Sailormoon and her scouts show all of there power to defeat the ice queen. Sailormoon finally show's her crystal to stop the ice queen from burying the city. And Luna likes somebody other than Artimis. This was the must perfect movie ever!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Okay movie

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Meow--this is Luna's show all the way
Review: Of the three full length movies, of which I have the subtitled versions, S is my favourite. Why? It has classic sci-fi archetypes, such as strange meteors falling to Earth heralding alien invasion, ancient myths turning out to be fact, and aliens exhibitng powers of extreme cold. There might also be a spin-off the the Japanese Yuki-onna (snow demoness) who lure exhausted travellers having collapsed in blizzard to sleep.

While stargazing, Kakeru, an astronomer, finds a comet, parts of which land. He drives out to where a particle landed, only to find an odd shaped crystal, which turns out to be a weapon that can turn Earth into a giant spherical popsicle for a Snow Queen. Not only that, but over time, it drains him of his life energy.

Before long, the Snow Queen sends her Snow Dancers to hunt down the crystal. In the process, they zap people and cars, turning them into blocks of ice. Once the Sailor Scouts repel the forward party, the ice melts, and things instantly go back to normal, as if nothing has happened. Things settle down after that, but that's the proverbial calm before the storm.

The key character and the most likeable is none of the humans, but Luna the female black cat. A concerned Guardian type who scolds Usagi to study for her entrance exams, she starts the story with a fever, foolishly walks home in her ill state, and is nearly run over by a sports car if not for Kakeru, who throws himself in harm's way and prevents her from being roadkill. So touched is Luna, that she starts to fall in love with the human to the point that she wishes she were human. She keeps thinking "I'm only a cat." Well guess what? There's nothing "only" about being a cat. A funny moment is when Kakeru thinks that whoever named Luna must be elegant. We're then treated to a thought of Luna of Usagi, who is laughing loudly.

If there is a theme here, it is the conflict between cold, scientific logic, and mystical romanticism. Kakeru, despite being having doctorates in physics, biology, medicine, and astronomical engineering, might be better suited as a poet or fantasy writer in contrast to his girlfriend Himeko. A parallel can also be seen between the learned white cat Artemis and the tender-hearted Luna. This struggle is magnified in the struggle between the Snow Queen and the Sailor Scouts. The difference is, the struggle can be reconciled on a human level. Scientists and romantics are perfect opposites for each other.

Maybe this is a goof or intended, but when transforming into their super selves, the sequence shows Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, Venus, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. Surely Venus should have come second?

There is also the concept of happiness being a compliment of sadness, a theme also referred to in the Doctor Who story The Happiness Patrol. That's basically what Sailor Moon tells the Snow Queen in the confrontation between them.

Not bad of its type, and the story is long enough to flesh out the plot, and these characters in particular: Luna, Kakeru, and Moon. Enjoy, and from Luna, 'Meooooww!'

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: You just have to love sailor moon
Review: This is the best movie yet it has a sweet story mostly about luna and the bad thing is that Uranus and Neptune dont have that many lines just like in the Super S movie as well, But this dvd is a must have for sailor moon fans and if you are a die hard sailor moon fan just buy all 3 movie in the Dream box dvd set you will love it just as much.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Don't get near Sailor Moon S-Hearts in Ice (dubbed)
Review: I would like to say that this movie was unexceptable in many ways. First of all, Sailor Moon R-Promise of the Rose was my favorite out of all three, and this movie just did not live up to my standards.

Secondly, the voices in the dubbed (especially Trista's {Setsuna's} were off. Also, there were many, how should I say, "sappy" morals in the story, which I don't care for.

Third, the movie was based on Luna and the human Kakuru, and how Luna learns how to truly love.

It's also about a new enemy, but her actual name is never really mentioned. (I suppose that she is Snow Princess Kagua?)

Snow Princess Kagua wants to freeze the Earth to make it part of her "collection."
She uses her snow dancers to turn the city that Sailor Moon is living and continents around the world into a world of death-a peaceful slumber trapped in ice.

Of course Super Sailor Moon uses her Silver Imperium Crystal and the aid of the Sailor Scouts...and you can decide what happens from there.

The story expands from there, if at all. I do not reccomend this movie for any Sailor Moon fan, subtitled, dubbed, or in any form available.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Bad! Bad! BAD!
Review: The English Dubbed Version of this movie [dtunk]. Yes, it did [stink]. I'm not kidding. They changed the following things in the dubbed version of this movie:

1) All the music (except for some) were replaced with the DIC music cues.
2) Everyone pronounces Princess Kaguya's name like Kah-GOO-Ya.
3) Sailor Chibi Moon's name became "Sailor Mini Moon".
4) Sailor Uranus' voice is too high-pitched.
5) Sailor Neptune's voice is too old! Serena (Usagi)'s mom isn't a good voice for her...
6) Sailor Pluto sounds like Britney Spears.
7) The Sugar Stars (those things which Kakeru gives to Luna) are changed to "Star Flakes". (Sweat Drop)
8) The Snow Dancers sound like annoying yapping dogs.
9) Luna's HORRIBLE voice doesn't match her human form.

AND MANY MORE!

Don't buy this tape! If you're a Sailor Moon fan and saw the Japanese Version, don't buy this tape! Stay away! Buy the English Subtitled Version instead!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good movie, not so good DVD extras.
Review: This was the very first DVD that I purchased for myself, and I'm glad I did. The movie is great, the sound quality is surperb, the subtitles are easy to read. Sounds like a perfect DVD, ne? The only downfall is the extras. Most of them are nice, with the senshi's transformations, clips of their attacks, etc. In the extras, they have character profiles, and while they're somewhat accurate, some things do not make sense, and they're hard to read. Other than that, this is a great DVD. I suggest that you purchase it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best Sailor Moon Video
Review: I loved it so much, I guess the main character of the movie would be Luna. It is so emotional how she falls in love with a human and wishes to be a real girl for a day. In the end she gets that chance, but in the end she also finds out that Artemis is her soul mate. So sad, so beautiful, and yeah the rest of the battle is cool,,,
