Filmwell Update: My review of Evangelion: 1.11 You Are (Not) Alone

My review of Evangelion: 1.11 You Are (Not) Alone — the first in a series of four films “rebuilding” the classic anime series Neon Genesis Evangelion — is now up at Filmwell. It felt really good to post a review there, and I hope to have one or two more finished in the near future.

I initially planned to post my review back in December, after watching Evangelion 1.01. However, that release was plagued with some transfer issues that rendered certain scenes nigh unwatchable. So my review is of the Evangelion 1.11 Blu-ray release, and I have to say, anime on Blu-ray is incredible. Here’s hoping more titles, such as older Studio Ghibli titles or some personal faves (e.g., Last Exile, Haibane Renmei) make it to the format soon.
