Evangelion Movie 3: Q

Fourteen years after the Third Impact, the Earth is a post-apocalyptic wasteland, human civilization is in ruins, and the people Shinji Ikari knows are almost unrecognizable. Trapped inside Evangelion Unit-01, he is recovered from space by Asuka Langley Shikinami and Mari Illustrious Makinami, only to find himself a prisoner of WILLE, a military faction led by his former guardian Misato Katsuragi. Cold and bitter, his former allies view him with suspicion and refuse to support him as he comes to terms with the consequences of his actions.

A hurt and confused Shinji is rescued from WILLE by Rei Ayanami and returned to NERV headquarters. There, he meets and quickly befriends the enigmatic Kaworu Nagisa, who offers him warmth and insight into the state of NERV's war with the Angels. But Shinji and Kaworu's brief respite lies on the eve of a new battle, one in which Shinji finds that his enemies are no longer Angels but former comrades. In this bitter confrontation to determine the future of the world, Shinji will learn first-hand that the past truly cannot be undone.

this is one of the best tv shows i have aver watched and that i will ever watch the artistic talent and creative skill it took to create something so amazing is practically impossible it was a one in a thousand chance that a franchise so constantly good exists. each character is written with a mastery of writing skill making them all entertaining and memorable. the story is the hard sci-fi all anime fans are looking for in the sea of shit that is the seasonal releases now beautifully built and crafted so that nothing is given to you and at the same time everything ... is given to you which is kept up across 26 episodes 6 films and 14 volumes. in conclusion Evangelion: 3.0 You Can (Not) Redo is a high 10/10.

Mixed Feelings

The action in this show was intense, though for the first thirty minutes or so, I have no idea what all the technical sounding commands that were being thrown around left and right was all about. Communication flow about what went down during the fourteen years between Shinji and the rest of the characters seemed to be nonexistent. It would have prevented a lot of unnecessary confusion for Shinji if someone had actually told him some facts instead of vague "don't touch this" or "don't do that" kind of phrases. At some point during the show, I also started to wonder how such a whiny ... and wimpy character like Shinji got to have the kind of responsibilities he seemed to have had before.

Overall the show was just ok, with an amazing soundtrack that probably saved the day.

Not Recommended

This just seems to be a bad Action movie that barely has anything to do with either the series or the previous movies. First the exaggerated use of voices from the off just giving orders or randomly saying things in the background got out of hand for the first half hour of the movie and on my nerves. It was okay how they did it in the series or previous movies, even if not the best story-telling device, but they REALLY went overboard and overdid it here. You finally get to tell something new after years of essentially remakes and quasi-remakes, and you just let ... people yell pointless vaguely technical sounding gibberish from the off to overly flashy and equally pointless CGI effects for the entire first third of the movie while the viewer, similar to the now-collared Shinji doesn't know wtf is even going on? To top it off, the 3D Animation is worse than the more classic style in the previous movies and the new character designs and characters are kinda shit. By the point the piano thing and Shinji's romance with Kaworu started I was over it and just wanted it to end. Shinji becoming whiny again and developing into a used washrag by the end, not to say growing dumber than he's been in all previous material and throwing away his character building in the previous movie just put the lid on it.
