I am VERY critical when giving movies reviews, so this is something when i say this. This movie is quite possibly THE BEST MOVIE EVER MADE. I cannot think of a movie that is more beautifully told, drawn, or acted than this one. When i first saw this, this was after i had seen the original OVA and wanted to see more. It was more than i ever could have hoped for. Using the same VA's from the original TV series, this continues to be one of those things i can't watch in English. The Japanese belldandy's voice is gorgeous and matches her perfectly. The art of this movie is breathtaking, the detail and character development is AMAZING, yet it also leaves a message, and gives you a good feeling afterwords. This movie is without a doubt the best movie ever made, live action or animated. If you didn't see the original OVA series, go out and BUY IT just so you can watch this movie. It's completely worth it. A 10/10 in all regards as nothing even comes close.
