Just so...so bad
Good start, but then it gets ruined
Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
View MoreI enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
View MoreSailor Moon R is my favorite seasonIn the first 13 episode of the season, during the Doom Tree part of the season, I enjoyed the story most of all. I found the relationship, the love square, going on between Serena, Darian, Alan, and Anne to be amazing. I had never seen anything like it before in my life, mostly because I was young when it started. It was probably what made me think Love Triangles and Love Squares where a great idea for writing in my own future. The second half of the season was great but it had several episodes that I found unappealing because the story line of those episodes was lame. Still, over all, the whole season was amazing, the entire story lines, both of them, for start to end were great. The Crystal Tokyo part of the story was amazing to. I would suggest that everyone watch this season.
View MoreThis is the anime that started me on all anime. Granted, I grew up with the English dub, but I now watch and love only the original. "Sailor Moon" has everything I love: Drama, Romance, Comedy, Action, Adventure and Super Powers! While I'll admit that the manga is better, the anime is pretty good too, especially for the first season finale. Episodes 45 and 46 make me cry so much! Especially when the ghosts of the four Senshi cheer Sailor Moon to keep going, and when Mamoru dies. Even when I watched the cut-up dub episode, I always knew about what happened to the "Scouts." Sailor Moon's tears were way too much for the other girls to have just been "taken by the Negaforce." That's right Dic, North American children aren't *that* stupid!This season is full of quite a few fillers, but the voice acting is good and the characters are enjoyable. Can't really blame the producers about the stretched out plot, since the manga was only coming out once a month and the anime was once a week. Highlights of this season include:-The Nephrite/Naru love storyline.-The Moon Princess being revealed.-When Tuxedo Mask is taken.-Seeing Usagi's change from coward to heroine (though it's a slow process -_-')-Sailor V's past, which is shown in an episode that was left out of the dub release......and of course the finale! I don't want to spoil anything else, so I'll just say this: Jupiter kicks serious butt in ep 45, and Mamoru is *cruel* in ep 46. Those two episodes are just so epic!So to everyone who's only ever seen the English dub, please do yourselves a favor and try to watch the original, in Japanese audio w/ English subtitles. It'll probably make you love Sailor Moon even more!
View MoreFirst of all, this is a very good show and though it is in Japanese, it does have English Subtitles. First of all, the edits are not here so be glad about that. The content that was taken away in the US version is all here and all this violence stuff you hear about, I just want to say that is isn't even that bad. Actually, I find it not bad at all. The spoiler part I was referring to involves deaths of the sailor scouts(or senshi, which is what they are called in the Japanese version) but we know that every time they die, they keep coming back to life. The swearing, it's not even close enough to PG13. The swear words are very minimal and the worst you would hear is the B word. The swearing level is just as much as a PG movie, not a PG13 movie, but a PG movie(yes, PG movies can even have the B word too). The gay and lesbian characters you hear about isn't anything wrong either. No sex scenes or them kissing each other with gays/lesbians either. I don't see whats wrong with that. The so-called "nudity" isn't even close to nudity. It's just body lines from transformations. They're are nudity scenes but a very few, and the look a lot like how a Barby doll would look, which is something children(mainly young girls) play with. There are no sex scenes in it either. I don't see why this is 18+ in Canada and the Japanese version was never shown on US TV, only edited version was(the one thats TVY7, it was never TV14 or TVPG in the US). The North American DVDs of S and SuperS(seasons 3 and 4) went uncut like the Japanese version with the exception of the English dialog, but other uncut stuff is there. Seasons 1 and 2 did not go uncut on DVD on the North American version, so you won't be able to watch seasons 1 and 2 with English dialog and uncut at the same time. As far as dark themes go, well let me tell you this. A lot of Disney movies that are rated G and PG have dark themes too, usually towards the end of them. The dark themes in Sailormoon are just like the dark themes in Disney movies and like Disney movies, they also don't come in until the end of a season.Now I said the review will have slight spoilers and I intend to keep it that way. All I'm going to say is that the story involves a girl who is given magical powers and becomes Sailormoon herself. The rest, I won't spoil.Like I said, I don't see why its rated 13+ on the uncut or 18+ in Canada. I think this is something kids should watch. Should a kid watch it? YES! This is highly appropriate for children. If a kid can watch a Disney movie, then they can watch this, uncut.
View MoreWhen I first watched this chapter of Sailor Moon on Cartoon Network,I gotta say that this chapter is the best one I've ever seen. I wasn't get anywhere after getting the first volume on VHS, I really wanted to see more, and I did. But when I got the first 2 volumes on DVD it was a whole lot better. It had more episodes than VHS. My favorite scouts in this chapter are:Moon,Jupiter,and the new Scouts:Neptune,Uranus, and my greatest favorite Sailor Pluto. It was cool to see her use her powerful attack"The Deadly Scream. I know it was never used in the last chapter of Sailor Moon, and she never joined Sailor Moon and the other scouts. I think my favorite villain is Mimete,and boy her outfit is wicked. It's pretty strange she only target's boys and yes she is boy crazy. Another thing that I liked is the episode about Telulu and the mysterious plants. I think that episode looks like the Flower Shop from "Little Shop Of Horros",and her Venus heart trap is like the monstrous plant from the story. I am glad that this chapter got to be on Television. So in closing,after this Chapter. Watch the Movie "Hearts In Ice", and catch Super S. You will see what I mean.
