Gekijô-ban hagane no renkinjutsushi: Shanbara wo yuku mono (2005)
Excellent, a well-made ending to the series
I loved this movie. It was not only very interesting, but was also a good conclusion to the original series.
The movie is truly great, takes an homage to a lot of already seen characters, for example, I appreciated Wrath and Gluttony's appearence.
Even Dante (?)'s little cameo was enough to smile.
The unique cameo I didn't like very much was Scar's, because it felt just random.
I really like the plot, it feels like a New Great War is going to start, tensions are everywhere, and there is a lot to cover.
I liked when the characters talked about Hitler and the Nazis.
I liked the main antagonist (she actually didn't feel like the big bad until the climax of the movie), but I didn't like Hughes' alter-ego,
because it looks kind of a bad guy, but I love King Bradley's alter-ego, instead.
I speculated about the main antagonist's true motives, and I thought my thoughts were a bit more reasonable and logic than the true ones, but it isn't a major let-off.
I loved the art style and animation, I absolutely like it!
I just didn't like the CGI elements (the armors, the battleships), but other than those, everything is perfect.
I would recommend this movie only to someone who already seen the original series and loved it. You won't be deluded by this Pearl of animation!
