Movie Number: 1
Written by:
Directed by: Hideaki Anno
Characters:
Summary: In the future, man is at war with creatures known as Angels. They use giant mechanized beasts called Evas to fight them, and use adolescents, around the age of 14 or 15, to pilot them. Neon Genesis Evangelion is the story of a boy named Shinji Ikari, one of the Eva pilots, as he comes to terms with the many facets of himself - his identity, his self-love/self-pity, his relationship with his father, etc. Beyond that, it is a philosophical journey into the world of science and man as playing god.
Commentary: This movie is simply a recap of the series. It does not have anything new to it. That being said, if you'd like a reminder of what happened without having to rewatch the entire series. If you want to get to the new stuff, move on to the next movies.
You all know that I gave Neon Genesis Evangelion a 10/10. Since this is a recap, I feel like the rating is self-explanatory. This movie is simply a movie about a wonderful series. Therefore, I am not going to give a specific rating for this movie.
