Movie Reviews of Sailor Moon S - The Movie
Movie Review: The future of Sailor Moon S
Summary: 5 Stars
Come on, who's that girl who wrote the review that the DVD and VHS dubbed version of Sailor Moon S Movie? The series is always weird like this, but to make a comment of the voices and names. I think Pioneer may be on to something for the dubbed edition of the new episodes of Sailor Moon for summer vacation.Let me start off on the good points that are the opposite of that one hateful writer's review. Uranus doesn't sound that feminine, Neptune doesn't sound that guyish, and Pluto is still decent as always. And the attacks are pretty much better than the fandubs, in my opinion, although they sound like the Japanese versions. And Sailor Mini Moon sounding like something from Austin Powers? Reality check, chibi is translated as small, mini, or little. And did that reviewer even get the DVD version as well? Read below for more info. I even like the name of Super Sailor Moon's attack: Rainbow Moon Heart Ache Reform. What's better is that Sailor Moon's third season first arc, "Moon Spiral Heart Attack" from Sailor Moon S is retained as normal.
All of that, and the Japanese original music. Unlike the video, the DVD comes with music from the original, despite the fact that the dubbed intro replaces the Japanese music. This is what Kids WB! did with Pokemon. They added some US tracks, but saved Japanese music in certain scenes. I hope Optimum's got plans for this as well.
Overall, Sailor Moon S' dialogue is superb. I don't know why that reviewer had to put it down. Order this DVD/VHS, because if you are a major Pokemon addict, like I was, get one of these SMS DVDs/VHS products.
Movie Review: She's the one named Sailor Moon...
Summary: 5 Stars
With this DVD version of the movie you get the best of both worlds. First you get dubbed which I think could have been worse. You also get the Japanese version. The Movie it's self I thought was a great movie as my first animation DVD and am very happy with it. The only problem is no widescreen and that really don't matter. The "Extra Stuff" is pretty cool, first you get a "Sailor Moon: Scout Guide" which basicly introduces you to most of the Sailor Scouts. Then in the DVD there is an option to see the edited start and the original Japanese ending. Also in the DVD they have a better scout guide which tells you everything and maybe more than you wanted to know about each scout. You also get to see all of their Transformation Scenes, a Still Gallery, and the Story of Princess Kaguya(it's a Japanese Fairy Tale and basicly the whole base of the plot). As not only my first Anime DVD and first Sailor Moon movie I have seen I can not help to give this DVD 5 Stars. It has great sound, animation, plot, and extras.Movie Review: Great Sailor Moon Flick
Summary: 5 Stars
Sailor Moon S is a great flick with some minor glitches, but all together, it's a buy you won't regret. The movie begins with the senshi on their winter vacation. Luna comes down with a fever and is being cured by an astronomer. His name is Kakeru. Luna starts to fall in love with him after a while. The situation turns bad for Luna as Kakeru's sort of girlfriend, Himoko, appears. Also, the senshi are facing a dillema when an evil ice queen Kaguya threatens to freeze the Earth and turn make it part of her collection. I cried the first time I saw this movie just because I'm emotional. Don't blame me! I think you'll feel more for the characters if you switch to Japanese with subtitles. The dub is just too, loud. The voices are, shrieky. The extras are something to be happy about. There's a picture gallery, a biography on each senshi, a story on Princess Snow Kaguya, and a preview of some Pioneer animation titles.Movie Review: Sub Good. Dub Bad.
Summary: 5 Stars
You might notice that nearly all of the complaints about this movie refer to the English dubbed version. My advice to any potential buyers is simply this: BUY THE SUB and AVOID THE DUB. Hey - it even rhymes so you can remember it easily! Buying the dubbed version means you pay a lot of money for a movie with several scenes missing, mediocre acting, and bad translations. Buying the subtitled version, however, means you have the original uncut movie with a great soundtrack, terrific voice actors, and good dialogue. If you're buying this for a child who is too young to read subtitles, don't worry - they'll probably be too engrossed to care (that's been my experience with kids and Sailor Moon, at least). Heck, it's just plain funnier, more suspenseful, and more touching in Japanese. If you still feel compelled to purchase the dubbed version...well, more power to you. But the sub really is better.
Movie Review: My Favorite Sailor Moon Movie
Summary: 5 Stars
My main problem with the Sailor Moon movies was that they seemed like drawn-out TV episodes. However, Sailor Moon S The Movie was the only exception. First of all, this is the only episode where you can watch Luna turn into a human. Second, I do think Mamoru (Darien) and Usagi (Serena) are at their most romantic in this movie. Third, the Outer Senshi are here! What more could you ask for?! My favorite parts were when Luna asked Usagi (Serena) how she spends time with Mamoru (Darien) and when the Sailor Senshi were talking about Luna and Artemis got so upset that he left the room...you just have to watch it to know what I mean! If you're going to buy only one Sailor Moon video, buy this one! In fact, if you're going to buy anything Sailor Moon at all, start with this!
