So basically this movie bears the theme of fighting for something precious with tanks'. But it is a bit different during this time. It mainly involves the fight between Ooarai and a University team. The battle somewhat turns out into something sort of a royal rumble, if we go much deep here then I might end up giving some major spoilers. Anyway, this time we get to see a new style of sensha-dou, where the main objective of one team isn't just to take out the flag tank rather it is to take out the whole opponent team. The battle turns out into a grand version of the battles previously shown in the anime. The movie also starts with a friendly match which is a tag team fight, it was something newly introduced to the movie. And we get some feels ride after that, as something bonus [?].
This movie introduced many new stuffs. First of all new schools, here we get 3 new schools with 2 of them which represents the stereotypical Japanese and Finnish. And here is the university team, with much better tanks and skilled crew compared to High School Teams. The forms of battle are also new. And some more new Bizzare tank fighting techniques which are as always enjoyable to watch.
The art of the movie is splendid, just like the anime. Nothing with major differences. Just a bit more CG.
The BGM's are great as always. They give a exactly unique feel to the stereotypical nations, if and only if you have a good idea about the marching songs of the major combatants of WW2.
Overally this movie is much more enjoyable. If you're looking forward to the tank battles you'll be much more thrilled. The tactics are interesting to watch as always and the new techniques introduced in the movie are much more enjoyable. If you also like cute girls then you will never be disappointed with this series. If you're a Sumire fan then you get to hear her Russian in this anime. In a nutshell, the movie is a really enjoyable stuff. You've got nothing to be disappointed of, if you liked the series.
