Sailor Moon R - The Movie (Geneon Signature Series)

Rating:
Summary: This move is awsome!
Review: I loved this movie! Especially since it was subtitles. I have seen both subbed and dubbed and I think the subtitled is much better. If you have the subbed you can here what Usagi actully sounds like.( Not Terri Hawks.) There was too much editing in the dub. The attacks were changed and there were too many corny lines. Take my advice and get the subtitled. You won't be sorry.

Summary: Poor Voice Acting
Review: I am used to the DIC voices. I was very happy when I found out Teri Hawkes was coming back as Sailor Moon. That is until I seen Pioneers new Dubbed movie. Its obvious that Teri and all the other voices in the show have not done this for awhile. They were terrible. I think Amy and Luna were pretty good, but everyone else, I"m sorry but they need to practice some more. I know Teri can do WAY better on Sailor Moon than in this movie. Sailor Moon sounded to proud, not enough emotion put into it. Also in this movie, there was way too much chessy lines. Especially when Chibi Usa says Moon Mama. Come on pioneer you can do better than this!

Summary: DISAPPOINTMENT!
Review: The first thing I want to say is that this version of dubbed was barnified. It was a major disappointment. Almost every translation was wrong. The title of the movie is good. The music didn't go with the movie. Sailor Moon's voice acting was bad. They even put in extra conversations which wasn't necessary. The story-line was mostly wrong. The sub-titiled is so much better. If anyone who wants to see a Sailor Moon movie or the series, don't start off with this version of Sailor Moon or else you'll end up hating it. Sailor Moon is really good, but not the dubbed movie. I really hope they do better on the next two movies.

Summary: If your really desperate...
Review: Don't buy it, unless you are really bored. Voices are not any good, especially since they kept most of the original ones. Sailor Moon is just as annoying as ever, her cry baby ways gets on my nerves. Although, I will say this. They didn't do to bad with the vilian. Please, don't waste your money on this, if you can borrow it. And especially don't waste your money on the VHS tape.

Summary: Awesome in both versions!
Review: I got the dubbed version of the movie & traded with my friend to see if the original was better. I really loved both versions. It's cool to here the original songs and words & I like that they added more words in the new version( though some were out of place) I can't wait till the other movies come out dubbed.

Summary: Gag me with my subtitled Sailor Moon S video!
Review: I have one question; Why! It is bad enough that DiC had to RUIN Sailormoon by dubbing the first two seasons(which they did very poorly, in my honest opinion), but did Pioneer have to ruin the Sailormoon R movie, too? Why must they distroy a wonderful anime by 'censoring' it for little 8-year-old kids? Why not just put a 'For 13 and Up' sticker on the box like they did for the subtitled version? I can only pray that they do not dub the other movies and/or seasons. Sure, it would be nice to see the Sailormoon S, Sailormoon SuperS, and Sailormoon Stars seasons get subtitled. But, watching the dubbed versions? Sorry, not happening.

Summary: AWESOME
Review: Even if you DO have to endure some REALLY cheesy plant puns, this movie is still the greatest movie ever. I've never seen anything SM except for Dic's butchering of the series, but this movie is a zillion times better. Snaps to Pioneer...they could've done better but it was still so great. The end was so touching. The love between Princess Serenity and Darien was so beautifully portrayed and the anguish of the Scouts during the battle. I almost cried. I totally recommend it.

Summary: My poor, poor ears!
Review: I recently viewed the English dubbed version of the Sailor Moon R movie - and I regret that I did. It wasn't the storyline and it wasn't the animation. Both of those were first rate. It was those terrible voice actors! Gracious, but when I first heard the intro, Terri Hawkes (as the voice of Sailor Moon/Serena) practically deafened me. Also, all of the voices sounded particularly strained as though they were trying really hard not to screw up since they obviously haven't worked in a while. Of course, many of the lines were corny and unnecessary. One scene had Rini calling Serena "Moon Momma". If that doesn't induce nausea, nothing will! Another scene replaces Usagi's "Tuxedo Kamen-sama!" with "The man can wear a cape! Woo!" The movie also put too much emphasis on friendship and not enough on love. My advice is to buy the subtitled version if you really want to see it done right. If you're a person who prefers dubbed, still buy it. Pioneer's dubbing faired much better than DiC's.

Summary: Major disappointment
Review: I didn't like this movie that much because there was too much editing, NA Black Moon music everywhere, and a recycled DIC song that felt out of place. The only good thing this movie has going for it are the original NA actors, and the return of Katie Griffin, who voice the characters we've grown accustomed to.

Summary: NOOOO!
Review: Well, this certainly SUCKED, just to put it bluntly. There was only 1 poistive thing I can say about this video, and that is that Amy's voice actress dropped the accent. I REALLY liked her voice after that. Well, and now for the downsides. The many downsides. First thing I noictied was...Serena's voice. Urm...I didn't think you could overact a voice. UUGH! Serena's voice was sooo annoying! It took away from her dialog! Speaking of dialog, EVERYTHING they say in the original is CHANGED. I thought this was the UNEDITED version. Rini's lil line "Don't worry, Sailormoon is protected by moon power!" should be "Don't worry. Sailormoon is everyone's mother. She'll protect us." And they still say stupid stuff like Luna: "The planet is covered with mega plant engery!" And they changed the attacks. GOD! Supreme Thunder Crash wasn't to bad, but..Mars Fireballs Flash! I am sure any little kid would like Mars Fire Soul Flash better. You know, we handed this thing over to you pioneer so you wouldn't turn it into a big Dic-up. And...uuuugh! When they are on the asteroid(which they called a "planet"*shudder*) and the senshi are flashing back to when Usagi made a difference in their life, after that they yell for Usagi. Well, this time they say "It has to work!" and stuff like that. And when Mamoru is stabbed..cut. I thought this was unedited! I could go on. Listin,if you like the Dub, this is more mature, and I am sure you would like it. But, purists or people that love the original...beware. I rented it for a laugh, and I got a headache.
