vampeal7 G-Saviour, for the most part, is a fair movie. Decent characters, above par storyline that would fit the Gundam universe, but if you came for mecha fights and robots slaughtering each other for 2 hours, you're out of luck.For what it's worth the mecha scenes, that are few and far between, are good. The G-Saviour will not win any awards for Best Gundam, but the fights between it and other mobile suits are worth a glance at, and yes you get both laser cannons and beam saber action as Mark Curran flies around in the G-Saviour aptly saving the day and holding up the tradition of Gundam.So if you're a die-hard Gundam/mecha fan who must see every shred of Gundam footage known to man then knock yourself out. But if you are just discovering the world of anime and/or Gundam and have access to the animated shows, consider this movie a last resort. At least wait until they someday (god-willing) attempt to make a live action version of the original series.3 out of 5, fair.
joedon66 This would have been a great Gundam movie if they had focused less on the romantics and more on what people watch Gundam for, the Mobile Suits. I'm not saying that the different Gundam series don't have plots that are very interesting and bring the audience in, i'm saying that this movie focused too much on the relationship between Mark(Gundam pilot) and the two central women in the story. When the Suits do come out to play it is intense and visually amazing but unfortunately this only occurs 2 times throughout the entire movie!! All-in-all I would consider this to be a good movie that attempted to do much and took away from what could have been an awesome Gundam movie.
AlucardDjin When I watched G Saviour I was very excited because as a bit of a gundam fan it was new to me. But when watching it i expected some of the gundam ideals to be put in there, Like with Kira from seed, protecting a group of friends but then learning fighting is not the way, even to start saving the enemy from death. However in G Saviour we have more American film ideals, the lone hero is in the gundams but not as obvious as it is in this film, and right away he wants to save the world but does not care for the other side no mater who they are. Even Herro Yui began to realise there was good people on both sides! so in this case i was disappointed a bit, however it did redeem its self by hinting at the fact that there was confusion to which side was right, and the use actually following the style flow of gundam with the off world colonies. Also...even after all that...if you don't give a poop about the missing element of Japaneses-godlyness, it has large Robots with energy blades! 'nuf said! =p people ENJOY its got something for all, even the kiddies
cra5h_0v3r1d3 So I'm a huge Gundam fan. I collect all means of Gundam media. I have DVDs unreleased DVDs and VCDs and if I see a Gundam model I don't have I buy 2 so I can paint 1 and put the other away. I feel the original "Mobile Suit: Gundam" movie seris was the best and probably always will be. But I saw this thing and had to pick it up and buy it because it's Gundam. I didn't even look at the back to notice that it had actual people in it. I figured it was just some cheasy CGI thing that was whatever... Point is... I got it home and put it in... the image was sooooo grainy and dark (to hide how crapy the CGI looked) and the acting was so awful that I just started to zone out and I seriously fell asleep. The volume on the DVD fluctiates so much that the end battle scene is booming loud and woke me up. I saw the crappy crappy effects and I just pulled it out and said "OH MY GOD!!! WHAT HAVE THEY DONE!!!". Gundam is one of the biggest anime franchises ever and if they wanted to be serious they should have spoken to some one about making a large budget film that would be awesome. Made for TV movies pretty much always suck, but I've seen way better effects... that one person that posted they liked the effects has never seen Merlin from 1998 or from Earth to the Moon from 1998 or... hell... anyhthing... ANYTHING IS BETTER THAN THIS... WATCH ANY FILM AND IT WILL BE BETTER THAN THIS!!! it's terrrible... ok... I've ranted enough... Bandai should just talk to Sony or something and make a huge large 100 million dollar film or make 3... I don't care... I'll watch it... just as long as its better than this.. OHHH! if you want large robots and people... rent ROBO JOCKS from back in the eighties... way cooler. Peace out
