Guardian

The film displays a surreal visual brilliance, augmenting the painterly romanticism of the original series into a gyroscopic wildness worthy of the digital age.

Rated: 3/5

Austin Chronicle

The ultimate summation of Anno's grand design, highlighting the extraordinary visuals of the franchise... all centered around Shinji's embracing of what neon genesis really means.

New York Magazine/Vulture

The cumulative result of all this inventive intercutting is a nostalgic reminder of everything that makes Evangelion not just psychologically complex, but balls-to-the-wall fun.

... whether you’re coming to "Evangelion" fresh or as a veteran, there’s little doubt in my mind that audiences will agree that Anno stuck the landing, finding a way to end not just on a positive note, but a life-affirming one.

loved it amazing movie , favorite series ever with a doubt. the man's poured his soul into this and if u have followed along his work , u can really see his emotional state and state of mind. I'ma huge Eva fan tho, I have everything Eva so I'm a biased fan from clothes , room decor to a 15k Eva rog computer to a car that's wrapped in Eva aesthetics. #1 fan
