      Ethan Gilsdorf Boston Globe Like a surly teen pilot, you, too, might find yourself bored and muttering, "Honestly, maybe the fate of humanity and the world isn't important to me, either.'' Rated: 2/4 Mar 3, 2011 Full Review Simon Abrams Slant Magazine Sets the stage for new, apocalyptic changes in the next "Rebuild" feature, and they appear to be the kind of changes fans have been waiting on for years. Rated: 2.5/4 Jan 22, 2011 Full Review Mike Hale New York Times It's strictly for the fans, who will furiously parse the changes in the narrative (including a new female pilot) and the nonsensical stew of philosophical and religious symbolism. Rated: 3/5 Jan 20, 2011 Full Review Ard Vijn ScreenAnarchy It is a fever dream for sure, but one that has been lovingly embellished with details and technically polished until it has become its own weird-yet-beautiful thing. Rated: 8/10 Jan 9, 2022 Full Review Chase Burns The Stranger (Seattle, WA) The Evangelion franchise is almost incomprehensibly dense, encompassing, among many things... Jan 5, 2022 Full Review Annalee Newitz io9.com You don't have to be a giant Evangelion fan to enjoy Evangelion 2.0...it asks whether it's possible to take on grown-up responsibilities and stay human at the same time. And the answer is as complicated as the mystery of the angels. May 23, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

      aRandomShyGuy An absolute masterpiece of a film with the most tear-jerking and beautiful ending I've ever witnessed. It never ceases to make me cry. Make sure to watch Evangelion 1.11 before you watch this though. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/21/24 Full Review Chanr3y k A huge improvement from it's prequel, with a visually stunning and beautiful ending, absolutely must watch. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/16/24 Full Review Juan A Is my favourite movie from the saga Evangelion, I think is the best of evangelion adaptation Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/31/23 Full Review Cody W EVANGELION 2.22: YOU CAN (NOT) ADVANCE continues the ongoing story of a vicious fight for survival, bringing forth an entertaining spectacle that is action packed, emotional, and very intense at the same time. In the middle of the chaos, one of the most terrifying plot twists will leave everybody as stunned as they can imagine. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/01/23 Full Review Liam D A much better sequel thanks to its beautiful animation, a much larger scale and more complex and compelling writing Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 11/03/22 Full Review Alix F The different story and new character developments were great. Mari Illustrious was underused. Too bad Shinji and Rei never got their chance of dinner because their lives and characters would absolutely be destroyed in the next film.
