Movie Reviews of Mobile Suit Gundam - Movie II (Soldiers of Sorrow)
Movie Review: Re released with new audio, yes, that is bad.
Summary: 1 Stars
In the 02 release the sound has been re-recorded or "mastered" or something like that. Also the credit roll track has been changed in the second movie; replaced with AISENSHI from the climactic fight scene. The result was for me an unpleasant surprise. It had been a long time since I had seen the originals and I was feeling nostalgic so I rented them. I am glad i did not jut buy them straight away. It all seems out of place and just wrong. Great covers though. If you can I strongly suggest you look for an older release.
Summary of Mobile Suit Gundam - Movie II (Soldiers of Sorrow)
The Federation space ship White Base and its precious cargo of prototype mobile suits have returned to Earth, only to find themselves in enemy territory. As the White Base struggles across the planet's surface to safety, Gundam pilot Amuro Ray must contend not only with the Duchy of Zeon's fiercest warriors, but also with his own doubts and fears.Soldiers of Sorrow (1981) is the second of the three features that launched the landmark Gundam franchise: about two-thirds of the film is footage from episodes 16 to 30 of the TV series Mobile Suit Gundam (1979) intercut with new animation. Because so much material had to be condensed into two and a half hours, Amuro's relationships with Lt. Matilda and Ms. Hamon end before they really begin. Amuro wrestles with his new identity as a soldier and the fact that he is a "NewType," a human with psychic abilities that may represent an evolutionary jump. His problems are played out against the ongoing war between the Earth Federation and the space-based Principality of Zeon. Although Earth commands vastly superior resources, Zeon commander Char Aznable seems to have an unending supply of ships and mobile suits for attacks on Amuro's ship, the White Base. Rated 13 Up: Minor profanity, violence. --Charles Solomon
