Despite what everyone is saying that this is another universe, a revamped story and whatever it needs to be said in order to separate the original story with this movie... well, I got news for you, it's not.
It still involves the universe of Eureka Seven, however, it seems that not many people are paying attention to the date of the events.
This movie tells the story of how everything came to be before the events of the anime series. This movie is set in the 21st century while the anime series takes place many, many years later.
Instead of introducing new characters just for just one movie, BONES used the original cast to tell the story before Psalms of the Planets. That's why we see old characters filling weird roles like Renton's sensei Dominic.
The story itself its very interesting because not only shows how the coralians came in contact with humanity but also alters the personalities of some of the characters, like Eureka for example, where she is not as shy and soul-less as she was portrayed at the beginning of the anime series. She is more friendly and caring towards Renton and at some points, scared of everything that's going on around her. Overall, she feels more open-hearted.
In my opinion, they could have easily extended the whole thing into a 12 episode series, but I can see that having two time settings in the same universe with the same characters would create even more confusion than what it already is going on.
There is not much to review about the art since it's everything you come to expect from BONES, high quality animation and special effects.
The sound is not as good compared to the anime series mainly because its always too serious (even for the battle scenes) for a plot that involves the romantic encounter of a human and a 'robot.' It makes it feel more melancholic and almost sad. At the very end of the movie, we heard a familiar tune courtesy of the original series, what you expected to hear when the Nirvash is battling another mecha unit.
The characters, as already explained, have been given different roles so reviewing their looks at this point is utterly pointless. However, their personalities have changed greatly. Perhaps the one who changed the most is Anemone and you'll see why if you have already seen the anime series. One thing that really bothered me is the fact that they did not included Charles and his wife (sorry forgot her name) as part of the cast since you can see almost everyone from the original series make a kameo appearance every now and then.
The movie is fully enjoyable if you understand the fact that the time period is the one that was changed and not the universe of Eureka Seven.
As a closing comment, it was nice and refreshing to see Renton and Eureka express their feelings towards each other more openly. read more

To start from the beginning the movie is not a continuation of the series and the story is pretty much different.
Story: The producers changed the plot so they could introduce us this movie.The story is not bad,but it's not as good as the series.At the first 30 minutes of the movie the story is too rushed up and people who haven't seen the previous series will be pretty much confused.
Art: The art improved and for good.The character design is the same but there are a lot of details that are well drown in the surroundings.I liked the art it was still that great.A lot of the scenes were very well rendered and that shows that a lot of time was thrown on the art.So yo won't be disappointed from it.
Sound: Well the sound was good.It's not the best out there but it won't bother you while you are watching the movie.The character voices are still good and lively.
Character: This is what I like the most from the movie.The kids are gone and that changes a lot of things.Eureka is not worried about them all the time and that way her character improved a lot.She is not that strange as the series she realizes Renton's love very early.Other thing that is changed is the personality of Hap.Now he turned into bad ass.And of course the children are gone.They were so annoying at times at the series.
Enjoyment: Well if you enjoyed the series you will enjoy the movie.It is just more of the same characters.They were a little things that are not very well thought at the movie,but they won't spoil your fun.
Overall the movie is not bad.I expected more,but maybe you will like it. read more

The original Eureka Seven series is basically an altered story set in a parallel universe in correlation to the movie.
More of the same characters,but not as good as the series.Still pretty enjoyable.

Both movies are derived from series full of religious and mystical symbolism. Both are about a conflicted adolescent boy piloting an alien bio-mech, in love with a half-alien/half-human girl, who come to conclusions about authority, their own identity, and their love in the middle of a prophesied apocalypse.
