Anime fans out of all the anime franchises that are out there there is only one that has a very passionate and die hard fanbase with the franchise in question being the Evangelion franchise and well after almost a whole entire decade since the second film in the Rebuild Of Evangelion film franchise. The fourth and final film in the Rebuild Of Evangelion film franchise has been released and so join me as I review the dubbed version of the film that fans have been waiting almost ten years to see with the film in question being called simply just "Evangelion: 3.0+1.0 Thrice Upon A Time" and yes this review will be SPOILER FREE and so enjoy.
The plot of this film is Shinji and crew face the fight for their lives as they continue their fight to prevent the dreaded final impact which will wipe out all of human live on earth. Now then in terms of what I personally thought about the plot of this film in all honesty I in all honesty thought that the plot of this film was rather weak which I guess makes sense since it's pretty freaking clear that all four of these films are meant to be watched at once but even so the plot of this final film still needs to be good enough in order to keep people invested in this film and just plain and simply isn't the freaking case in my freaking opinion anyways / at least.
Starring in this film is Amanda Winn Lee as Rei Ayanami , Spike Spencer as Shinji Ikari and Tiffany Grant as Asuka Langley Shikinami. Also starring in this film is Alejandro Saab as Kensuke Aida , Allison Keith-Shipp as Misato Katsuragi , Brett Weaver as Tohji Suzuhara , Daman Mills as Kaworu Nagisa . Deneen Melody as Mari Illustrious-Makinami , John Swasey as Gendoh Ikari , Mary Faber as Ritsuko Akagi , Michael Ross as Kouzo Fuyutsuki , Amy Seeley as Maya Ibuki , Felecia Angelle as Sakura Suzuhara , Jason Lee as Shigeru Aoba , Joe Fria as Makoto Hyuga and Kimberly Yates as Hikari Horaki.
Now then in terms of what I personally thought / felt about the acting that's featured / presented to us in this very / particular in all honesty I in all honesty thought that the acting that's featured / presented to us in this very / particular film was a very mixed bag of affairs for me personally. This is because for every good performance that's in this very film there's two or even three or four actors and actresses that turn in bad performances and it's those exact same bad performances that bring down the overall quality of the acting that's in this film in my opinion anyways / at least.
Doing the animation for this film is Khara with companies like / such as CGCG Studio Inc. , E7 , Garyu , MORIE Inc. , Project Studio Q , RiFF Studio , Samurai Pictures , Trick Block and unknownCASE doing the CGI animation for this film. Now then as for what I personally thought about the animation that's in this film in all honesty I really did like the animation that's in this film since the animation that's in this very film very detailed and the overall quality of the CGI animation that's in this film is just as impressive if not more impressive then the actual animation that's in this very film in my opinion anyways / at least.
Now then believe it or not the previous film that's set within the Rebuild Of Evangelion canon was released nine freaking years ago which was also when this film started to get teased. However due to various reasons this film just kept on getting delayed heck this film got delayed so much that the makers of this film had to put an over three minuet long recap of the events of this canon at the start of this film in order just to keep everyone up to speed with the story and where the characters are in their lives right freaking now.
In all honesty I in all honesty feel that the fact that this film came out nine years is a huge problem because it meant that a recap had to be tacked onto this film and it's that very recap which eats up a fairly big portion of this films running time and while it was something that was indeed needed because let's be real here who is going to remember a film that they last saw nine years ago. However the recap doesn't really catch you up on any of the characters possible character development which is kind of a key thing that the fans of this franchise should have been reminded of when those exact same fans are starting to watch this very / particular film in my opinion anyways / at least.
I really do no that this shouldn't really need saying at this point in the Rebuild Of Evangelion film franchise but i'm going to go ahead and say it anyways but yeah this film is freaking gory as all heck. There is much gore in this film that you could very easily pass this is film of as a horror film and i'd believe you because yeah that's how gory this film is and alot of the gore is in honesty really freaking cool to see in this film in my opinion anyways.
Now then this film has a very shockingly long running time of exactly two hours and thirty five minuets and forty six seconds and well if i'm being well and truly very freaking honest here people this very / particular film really didn't / did not need to be that long at all in my humble and in my very honest opinion anyways / at least. In fact it's this films really shockingly long running time which is a huge issue for me personally since the film doesn't even have enough there in terms of storylines / plotlines to cover that running time and so we are left with what I think is at least a forty minuet segment with three characters that adds literally nothing to overall plotline / storyline of this very / particular film and it's that exact same segment that could and more importantly should have been cut from this film because that's how unneeded this exact same segment is in my opinion anyways / at least.
Now then according to IMDB this film is being listed as an action film and so that means that I have to actually talk about the actual action scenes / action sequences that's featured / presented to us in this very / particular film and well if im being well and truly very freaking honest here people the action scenes / action sequences that's featured / presented to us in this very / particular film is so freaking cool. This is because in my opinion anyways / at least the characters get to do some genuinely really freaking cool moves in this films many freaking action scenes / action sequences but that's just what I 5think and that's just in my very humble and as well as being in my freaking honest opinion anyways / at least.
Overall there's not really much that I can say here because at this point your either a die hard Evangelion fan or you just straight up either don't like or even heard of the Evangelion anime and manga franchise and so either way you've already made your mind up on if your going to see this film or not but I can say that I personally thought that this film was pretty good and that you shouldn't to attached to certain characters if you get what i'm saying. Now i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very / particular film in this very / particular review and so that means that this film gets a grand score of an 8 out of 10 from me.
Now then as for where I got all of the images that I used in this very review well then I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from the official Evangelion fandom wiki page and from google Images. With my personally favourite website to use to get images from this film being Google Images this is simply because Google Images actually has alot of images from this film and plus all of the of the images that are currently up and featured and on Google Images are all fairly high in quality and as well as being fairly high definition.
