Mobile Suit Gundam Narrative (2018)
Worthy successor to the Unicorn Gundam story and for those new to Gundam
This movie starts off a little slow and confusing but eventually slowly revealed and quickly made sense for those who watched Unicorn Gundam. Animation overall is pretty good with some really good animation sequence in the first main Gundam fight. It lacks Gundam mecha visuals, there aren't that many variety of Gundams in this movie and features mainly 5 mobile suits. The main protagonists seems very disconnected even though they were made out to be some kind of love triangle but never evolved to anything more than their own connection with each other.
The story overall feels very light in terms of the scope of what the actual plot was supposed to be really about for Gundam fans. For non-Gundam fans the story seems very bitterly sweet.

Good musical movie for the family
Very good musical movie for the family with very good performance but it is rather short and highly predictable.
After watching it I was debating whether to let my kids watch it because it features so many atypical characters that all girls are princesses and all guys have to be big tall and handsome princes.
In reality majority of us are neither princesses or princes and most of us are not beautiful or handsome.
The ending was really predictable, I wished they made more action into the movie so it's worth watching it more than once.
The 3D effect is minimum so don't bother watching it in 3D.

This is as original as Gandhi the movie.
If Hollywood intends to sway the Asian market at least hire popular Asian actors and not use any Hollywood actors. Quite insulting in a movie where 99% of the casts are Asians and the main star isn't. This isn't the 60s or 70s where main stars have to be white in order to appeal to the masses. The world is changed, people want authenticity. Even white yuppies prefer Japanese made sushi and they prefer watching anime with subtitles to get the authentic feel.
Hollywood is so unoriginal these days, borrows all sorts of stories and scripts from afar but continues to use whites as leading roles in all of the heavy ethnic movies. It's a shame this movie will flop as a result of this typical Hollywood template.
