Summary: Hmm, it's OK...
Review: Let's see...I probably would like this movie more if I hadn't seen the subbed version first. Oh yeah, I like it well enough, but it IS a little edited. I mean, the subbed was rated PG13, but this said "for ages over 3". Come on! This show was meant for older viewers! If you are a die-hard fan of the subbed version of Sailormoon, I wouldn't buy this video. But if your parents won't let you buy a video that costs so much money and is in a language you don't understand (that was MY prediciment ^_^;), go ahead and buy it. You never know, you might like the English version better. But I do have to say it was a relief not to keep switching from reading the captions and looking at what was really happening on the screen!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Highly disappointed
Review: Pioneer did a very poor job at keeping the Dubbed version like the original. DiC could have done a better job. Some of the attacks are changed and the plot is very confusing. Dictation was horrible. Words were poorly choosen. Unless you are a SM-fanatic, don't buy this movie. It will be interesting what Pioneer will do with S and SS movie

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Good but not the best!
Review: I have seen both versions at my friends house and I own the dub. In my words, the viewer from Michigan has no clue what he's talking about! On the sub you waste all your time trying to read what they said! He neads to get some sence nocked in him and also get some respect for our Sailors! In other words, it's good but the dub is WAY better!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Movie
Review: It was a great movie. Any Sailor Moon fan would agree. I have the sub titled version it is much better than the DiC versions of the show. I do hope that they will dub more of the shows. If anyone has any cool pic or AVIs of Sailor Moon show a and/or movies email me at jasper8347@hotmail.com. Thanks maybe I get you some pic too.

Summary: A Wonderful Movie!
Review: Both the sub and the dub are great! Even though I THINK Pioneer used the same voice actresses as DiC did, they did a slightly better job than the reg. episodes.

Things that displeased me are: 1. In the dub, they used "Power of Love" again, where they used it already in the episode against wiseman. 2. Dubbing was a bit off. Especially when the Senshi had flashbacks about how Usagi brought them together. They were supposed to say "Usagi", instead they said different things.

But there are good things, too. First of all, the dub was not cut off much at all! A lot better than I had thought. Second, the sales rating for the dub is obviously beyond what I imagined! 12? That's REALLY good. I'm sure it was higher than that when I wasn't looking! and Third, it's in English, most importantly.

I would recommand ages 10 and up for the SUB and under 10 for the DUB. Either way, you gotta get one or both!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Finally! Sailor Moon done right!
Review: Sailor Moon R has always been my favorite Sailor Moon movie. I was extremely pleased with the DVD release of the movie. The sub was done wonderfully.

WARNING:

The dub on the otherhand, was a totally different script. It left a lot of the "DIC" feel, aimed towards the kids. A must have for any Sailor Moon fanatic, but just make sure you watch the sub version first.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Best of the 3!
Review: When I first got this movie, I thought it was going to be awful to read the subtitles. But after awhile, you just forget you're reading them! The animation is great, you get to see the original transformation sequences, and there's a new song! Come get the original Sailormoon! My friend hates Sailor Moon, and it turned her into a fan! The best of the 3!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The "Deepest" of the Three Sailor Moon Movies
Review: I actually saw this video over a year ago by buying a pirated subtitled version from Canada. I'm pleased to say the subtitled version sold here at Amazon.com is just the same (save a few differences in the subtitling) as the one I bought a year ago.

There is a meteor filled with thousands of energy consuming seeds of a pink flower called, as my verion names it, the Kinesan flower. It preys on lonely, depressed, weak willed beings and uses them as a vehicle to consume whole planets of all their energy until, finally, the subjected planets die. Here, the lonely Fiore becomes victim to the flower. You see, he once had the then recently orphaned child Mamoru, but this alien found that Earth's conditions were too much of a strain on his body, so he was forced to leave Earth, and Mamoru. Years later, Fiore stumbled into the flower, and it promised him he would have Mamoru again if he polluted Earth with her seeds, and so Fiore set towards Earth on a meteor carrying thousands of them. In the process of the film, each character realizes how much one's friendship means to the other, especially in relation to Sailor Moon: "We would all be alone if we had never met Sailor Moon; please don't kill her!" If I tell you anymore, I will destroy the story!

The animation is very well done. I could rave about the color, and the fluid motions, but one scene in particular sticks out in my mind. In the end, Sailor Moon seems as though she has died. The camera catches all the faces of the sailor scouts crying and screaming at her to wake up, but if you don't blink, and watch Mamoru closely, you will see him literally become human as the artists catch the diffucult to duplicate expression of shock, denial, and extreme sadness -- all in one expression. That scene alone makes me cry everytime I watch the movie.

WARNING: As for which verion to buy -- subtitled or dubbed -- I was worried that certian scenes would have been edited out in both Pioneer versions. For example, there is a scene where all the scouts, and Mamoru, are on the meteor fighting Fiore, trying to save Sailor Moon from him. He had her held tightly to him with several hands and tentacles -- whatever you call them -- and was draining all of her energy. The problem was it looked as though Sailor Moon were being crucified. She was tied up to Fiore exactly as Jesus was to the cross -- with arms extented and bound outward, legs tied together, and Fiore's fingernails pressed into her forehead like Jesus's crown of thorns. This was the main scene I was sure would have been censored; however, in this SUBTITLED version, it is still there. I CANNOT speak for the dubbed one, though. So, beware, for there may be this big of a difference between the dubbed and the subtitled verions.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Sub, Not Dub
Review: This is the worst incarnation of Sailor Moon I have ever seen. They took a lot out of it, mostly really great music. There was a lot of dead silence in some scenes. Also, some scenes are shortened and the voices sound different from the TV versions. The dialogue they added is insipid. When Rini said, "Do your thing, Moon Mama!" I left the video store in disgust. You MUST see the original uncut Japanese version! It's the only one worth viewing!
