Too much in too little time
7 November 2022
Warning: Spoilers
The film is not too bad, but it is also not too good. The plot is too crowded with narratives without offering any form of coherence for new viewers. Also, the abrupt jump from one scenario to another, makes it hard to put together. I have never been much of mecha fan so the fighting scenes did not hold much interest for me. But I did like that the female characters were little more well thought out compared to most mecha animes of that time. But the movie could have really benefitted from better editing and little more tightness in the plot. The plethora of characters crowding the film was quite distracting. One never understands what happened to Cecily's mother and grandfather. Or truly grasp the villainy of Cecily's father who just felt like a pale Darth Vader imitation. But I did like the ending but that is not enough to save a story that is already sinking too fast.
