      David Jenkins Little White Lies Simply incredible to look at, with bold splashes of colour in every frame, with nuanced movements from the humans and humanoid robots alike, with weight and detail in both its action and its quieter moments of drama. Rated: 4/5 Nov 10, 2021 Full Review Timothy Lee Geeks of Color The End of Evangelion isn’t just a film. It isn’t just the conclusion to an incredibly popular mecha anime series. It manages to be more than that, pushing the limits of what an anime film can be. Mar 25, 2024 Full Review Charles Solomon FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles) It's quite spectacular and one of the weirdest films you will ever see... The only thing I can compare it to is animated schizophrenia. Mar 23, 2024 Full Review Tom Cassidy Common Sense Media Profound, disturbing and beautiful, this is an anime masterpiece, albeit with one big caveat. Neon Genesis Evangelion: The End of Evangelion relies on you having seen the original TV series. Rated: 5/5 Aug 2, 2022 Full Review Dan Schindel Hyperallergic If the show documents the process by which these characters are worn down to nothing, then this is what happens when they're reduced to exposed nerves... It's a Lynchian picture of the tormented mind, depression's figurative end of the world made literal. Feb 26, 2020 Full Review John G. Nettles PopMatters This may be, if not the greatest, certainly one of the most harrowing anime experiences ever made. Jun 19, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews

      Denver Required cinema for anybody alive Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/24/24 Full Review Kayla Admittedly this is a rewatch for me. Only watch if youve seen the anime! Its a direct continuation of the story and if you havent seen it you will not understand a thing. Ive seen this 3 times before, but the big screen was a nice experience. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/22/24 Full Review Piko I will give this 10/5, Ten out of Five if I can. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/21/24 Full Review Hunter End of Evangelion is a master piece, it was beautifully animated in 24 fps cell animation, as well as many other mediums of art. It explores themes of human connection and escapism through the main character Shinji Ikari as the fate of humanity depends on him. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/21/24 Full Review Patrick. It is....one of the greatest films. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/21/24 Full Review artoriaschan The legend in theaters. I’m so happy!
