Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon Eternal Movie 1

Eternal is an anime that looks good when you look at some still shots and the trailer. The animation is still choppy but with some average improvements here and there. It does not have the power to outshine a lot of modern counterparts in this respect. So someone who has not read the manga would likely drop this within the firs 10 minutes.
This arc was more interesting in the manga, this looks like a vanilla adaptation, everything is serene, no impending sense of doom or scary villains, they all come across as non-threats to our main characters
The funny scenes are very underwhelming, I ... can't pinpoint if it's the VA or the animation.
The music is atrocious, bland chorus music mixed with some random guitar (composer used to be in a rock band so that would explain it) but it really REALLY does not in any way shape or form fit the atmosphere or story of Sailor Moon. Music has consistently been one of the worst things about the remake. Not sure why they couldn't just use the old OST, they sure seemed to enjoy reusing the Sailor Neptune Submarine Reflection attack SFX (in part II)
SM is at times a dark manga with some violent scenes and lots of deaths. This music is not reflective of this at all. It's painfully forgettable.
Re-watch value is 0 despite some of the nicer scenes and character redesigns (which are lovely), there is very little tension/drama going on.
Transformations are just lazy copy-pastes of the 90s version, like it's well known Uranus is the only one who got the entire budget for an amazing new attack. I wanted to see a lot more color, literally there is an artist/animator on IG who has recently done a SM transformation remake and it's painfully beautiful to look at and so I know it could have been better, I don't need to see remake of the 90s content, for that I have the original and it seems until a studio like Cloverworks maybe can access the rights to SM we're never getting a good remake.
