Summary: The Promise of the Rose - Not All That Promising (Dubbed)
Review: I have not yet seen the Japanese version, but I believe people when they rave about that one, because by most everyone the Japanese versions are considered much better. This movie in the dubbed version is rather boring, more for the people who love the action in SM, and don't really care about the story. (Half-Plant Half-Human creatures that live off other living beings energy are sent to earth as a gift from some boy who's name I can't remember to Darien, because when they were in an orphanage together, Darien gave the boy the only gift ever given to him: a single rose, which originally was a gift from Serena.) The boy has intents to kill Serena with the plants, (and take over the world), because he believes that Darien must choose a friend: him, or Serena. For my taste, this movie isn't the greatest. I personally recommend even the dubbed version of Sailor Moon S, which is also good for the younger moonies and Luna fans. Also, I don't really recommend watching any of the movies before you've seen some episodes of the show. (That's what I did and I got REALLY confused. Is Alan that kid???? And who's Friolle????) Over all, this is more an action movie than anything else, but if you're one of those people who live to see any of the Sailors attack, get this movie. (Of course, not much violence cause it's the dubbed version.) Enjoy! ^_^

Summary: Domo Arigato Pioneer!!
Review: It's about time that North America gets access to what I think is the 2nd best of the 3 Sailor Moon movies (of course, when they're all great, picking a favorite is tough)! It has a very involving plot, the animation is incredible, as usual, and you get a lot of background information about Mamoru (AKA Darien). The reason I don't give it five stars is that the story does seem to drag on at some points. Also, the story is more of a "Gung-ho, let's save the universe" instead of the upbeat comedy, although there is some humor laced in. The best part about this movie is that it has the song "Moon Revenge," my personal favorite from all the Sailor Moon soundtracks. We can only hope that DiC doesn't screw around with it in the dubbed version.

Summary: The brilliant Sailor Senshi debut, Sailor Moon R
Review: I highly reccomend this movie. This movie displays the beautiful past of Mamoru as his childhood friend Fiore becomes jealous of him and Usagi's love. Wanting Mamoru for himself, he joines the Kessian Blossom in her wicked endevor to suck a planet dry and destory it. The movie's downfall's are just that it's too short. This 61 minute feature was soaked up by people in Japan when it was in theatres Fall of 1993. Here's the DVD review: Menu's: B+
Disc Quality: C+
Audio: B+ (Somewhat staticy) Video: B+
Content: B
Packaging: B- (Mix of dub and sub terms is a no-no)
Inserts: A-
Translations: B+
Extra's: B The disc quality isn't very good, that's why the audio and video quality aren't very good. The content is a B because the menu's arent taht good, and the actual video is mpstly all you get, minus a Pioneer (Geneon) interactive menu where you can see upcoming titles. The menuing isn't very good, it's too basic. Although, I wish they could have digitally remastered this movie. It would bring up the grade a lot. Also the translations... most of the time they were accurate, but sometimes most lines are very off. (Examples coming soon).
MPAA: Edited version is TV-Y7, Uncut TV-14
My rating: 12+ (some frames of nudity and violence)
Geneon rating: 13+ for Mild violence and sexuallity, scary moments

Summary: A Romantic!
Review: This movie is so romantic. It is one of the most romantic films
I have ever seen! I still cannot belive Darien's friend Fiore
is the villain. When I first saw this I thought Fiore would
be a great friend to Darien. (...) Her new voice is so annoying! But the rest of this movie
is great though.

Summary: Sailor Moon R...is the bomb!!!!!
Review: Sailor Moon R is the best movie of the 3 i've seen. It has the best plot, and story line. Although this movie is very sad, even though it's a cartoon. It did make me cry a bit, beacause of lonley times which I can relate to. It did have very good animation...Although, it was the best series (R was the Nega-moon one), It did have the sweat/sad parts. It did have a bit of nudity, and swearing(in the subtitles), but it's not bad at all. Its mostly about Darien (Mamoru) and how his child hood friend, Fiore how he left and went to the meteor where Kisenian was little did he know, he was under her spell, and she wanted...energy...! Serena (usagi) was walking do de do de do and then a lot of people were like...kinda dead... so the fought a flower, and teleported to the meteor witch... had Kisenian, and fiore. after they blasted the monsters with her Moon Princess Halation. After they fought, the planet suddenly was breaking... The planet was heading to the earth Sailor Moon was going to use the Imperium Silver Crystal. Fiore grabed the crystal and she de-transformed... she reminded him of the childhood and he disapeared they used the planet power and blew it up (and the crystal). Fiore's life energy revived Sailor Moon and they went back to Earth.

Summary: BEST ANIME MOVIE EVER!
Review: This is THE best anime movie you could ever watch. I recomend it to every single Sailor Moon fan, whether you LOVE Sailor Moon or just like it a bit. Even if you don't like Sailor Moon, you will still love this movie. It starts out pretty simple, but then it gets alot of action and drama. Darien's childhood friend comes back, but he is not alone. He, brainwashed by the Kisenean Blosson, steals Darien, tries to kill the Sailor Scouts, and tries to take over the Earth. It is a great movie for anyone to watch (althought I would not recomend it to younger kids, its more of a mature anime). I bought it the first day it came out, and so far I have watched it at least 1 time a day (more like 2 times, actually). You have got to get this awesome movie. It has alot of emotion, unlike some other anime today. It will drive you to tears of sadness, then tears of joy, and then back again. If you have not yet purchased this movie, I don't know what you're thinking. Rush to the store near you which sells this movie, or buy it here at Amazon.com. It doesn't matter as long as you get the BEST ANIME MOVIE EVER! I can't wait for the other 2 Sailor Moon movie to be dubbed.

Summary: For Any Sailor Moon Fan!
Review: Earth is about to be wiped out by... Flowers? Fiore, a childhood friend of Mamoru's (aka: Darian) has returned from space but not as the friend that Mamoru remembers. When Mamoru was little and in the orphanage. He found Fiore who was very weak and took Fiore to stay with him. But Fiore couldn't stay on Earth long. When he left Mamoru gave him a *rose*. Fiore promised that he would return some day with lots of pretty flowers. But when he returns, he is possessed with a very evil deamon called the Kiresian flower. This flower attaches it's self to people with weak minds and has them do it's will. Causing them to even destroy their own planets. Fiore has come to take Mamoru and destroy Earth. But of course Sailor Moon and everyone won't let that happen... This Movie is great! I recomend it for ANY one who is even remotely interested in Sailor Moon. Even if you don't have a clue what Sailor Moon is about, this movie pretty much gives you the basic idea. It is a touching story, with lots of flashbacks. I recomend that you buy it. If you have ANY questions, Please e-mail me at Boopsie1@aol.com

Summary: not as good as the subbed.....
Review: ok, so its not as good as the subtitled version. my biggest complaint about the movie was that the producers took out the homosexual subplot between Mamoru (Darien) and Fiore. Let's face it, Ami (Amy)saying "everyone's in love with him" doesnt have the same impact on the plot as "he is really popular with men"...oh well, what did i expect. Overall, i can't really complain though, the majority of the original plot was there and i do like the English version, just not as much as the japanese. I think its a great way to keep Sailor Moon going though, and for that i am happy. Oh, and just for the record, yes they meesed up Sailor Mars' attack...they combined "Mars Fire Ignite" with "Mars Firestorm Flash" (the attack she used against Katzi while defending Chad in season 2). But overall, i really did enjoy this, but the mistakes were enough to only merit 3 stars. Hopefully they will do a better job with Sailor Moon S and Sailor Moon Super S!

Summary: It's not for 13 year olds to me.
Review: I bought this movie 3 years ago. It was great and filled with lots of flowers. The Kisenian Blossom was beautiful, but evil. Fiore was trying to take Mamorou from Usagi by putting flowers in a huge asteroid. Usagi looked cute as a child. This movie came out in Japan in 1993. The song in this movie is "Moon Revenge" preformed by the Japanese cast of the Sailor Senshi.The song is in Japanese.

Summary: The best sailor moon movie out there
Review: Anyone who says that this movie isnt better than the subbed needs to realize what there reviewing for. It's Sailor Moon R - The Movie DVD. Which means that you have both the japanese and english language. This movie is about dariens old friend Fiore. He comes back to earth in order to fulfill his promise of giving darian flowers. Unfortunaly, the flower he finds takes control of him and uses him for world domination using flower pods. This is the best sailor moon movie out because it has the best story out of them all. A must have for all sailor moon fans.
