Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Ariella Broughton It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

filmfan1991 "Sailor Moon: Hearts In Ice" at its core is a love story that focuses on Luna more as a character with feeling and not exposition as in the TV show. In the movie Luna is almost run over by a car but is saved at the last moment by an astronomer named Kakeru who believes in the Japanese story "The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter". Luna starts to develop feelings for Kakeru but cannot express herself because number 1: shes a cat and number 2: shes a cat that can talk and that would tend to freak out most normal people even if they believe in myths. Meanwhile a nameless icy female being(later called Snow Kagua by Kakeru) returns to Earth after thousands of years of journeying through space to freeze the Earth over and make it a part of her "collection".This is probably the best Sailor Moon movie that has the feel of a full length feature film and not just an extended episode since Luna is the main focus of the story and we get to see a more personal side of her character that we never saw in the anime. The action is very good and doesn't use a lot of stock footage and more original versions of the Sailor Senshi's attacks. The Outer Senshi appear in the movie and its always great to see them even if their contribution to the plot is minimal. There's even some good humor like Tuxdeo Mask's hilarious entrance but most of the movie is serious drama focusing on intimate relationships and it heightens the impact of the film especially at the end is probably one of the most touching moments out of "Sailor Moon".

tedg Spoilers herein.I yearn for cinematic adventure, so often duck down unfamiliar, sometimes dangerous alleys. I found `Akira' and `Mononoke' to be exhilaratingly challenging. Oddly cinematic. So, with scant knowledge I picked up this anime.The story is simple enough: Faux Shinto warriors in the forms of 14 year old girl scouts live dual lives as silly useless (pre-) teenagers and as superheros who fight evil with the aid of magical gems and wands. It features strong pop music and minimalist animation. At first viewing, didn't impress me at all.Then I checked it out in the literature.Seems this is quite a phenomenon in a few target communities. Preteen girls, as one would suspect. But a much stronger following among males, those who presumably lust after preteen girls. And the characters do what they need to to accommodate this crowd: The girls in their scout/senshi forms have impossibly short skirts which often are the only element animated, never revealing a flash of panty. Most of the plots have a boy-girl (or here girl-girl) `love' element, the villains are older (here topless) women. The gems are vaginal in a Georgia O'Keefe fashion and the wands phallic.Turns out that there is a HUGE web presence of Sailor and similar amine porn, focusing on the Japanese obsessions of menarche, school uniform panties, and the myth of innocent lust.Films define life to a large extent, especially where sex is concerned. Here we have the effect when it has the strongest impact. The series was around long enough to evolve to propagate the meme in the most effective manner. This is real movie power. This is really worth seeing.

tanaeya The second Sailor Moon movie, Sailor Moon S(or Super) was good, but not as good as Sailor Moon SuperS: The movie. This movie is unique in the sense that the plot is not revolved over a Sailor soldier, but over the cat, Luna.Pros: *A relatively good plot *The outer soldiers (minus Saturn, who was not in the movie) *The battle scenes *The opening *Some funny scenesCons: *Sailor Saturn was not in the movie! *It should have been more focused on the outer soldiers

GreyFox37 i recently got this one for christmas from my mom. thank god i told her to get it subtitled. lol. after seeing this one, it became my favorite out of the three. super s was previously my fav, but s was more touching to me. i especially loved the ending (luna) that's the only hint i'm giving out. the story was very dramatic and the sailor senshi are better than ever! if you love action and a little romance, go for it!
