This Japanese import featuring five teenagers with superhero powers may turn out to be for older girls what Pokémon is for the pee-wee set. The fantasy-action story lines of Sailor Moon (named for the leader) is typical anime fare--which means it's far more creative than anything you'll see on Saturday morning. And far more complex--the stories are intricate and flashback sequences feature wordless narrative. Then again, what high-spirited girlwouldn't love the magical makeup that transforms hip schoolgirls into butt-kicking heroines? In this one-hour feature, we meet a new foe, a mysterious childhood friend of Sailor Moon's boyfriend who returns--from deep space! His evil plan to rid the Earth of life includes flowers with awesome powers, vine-covered foes, and telekinetics. Quite the challenge for Sailors Moon, Jupiter, Mercury, Mars, and Jupiter. Despite the action, the series certainly has a different feel and color scheme than most male-driven anime. The Japanese have two terms: shonen (for boys)and shojo (for girls), and if girls haven't had a chance to see the shojo anime, this is the starting point. This subtitled version is uncut fromthe original Japanese cartoon, and the reading crowd above 7 is the appropriate audience for the video's occasional spookyimagery. This unedited version was soaked up by kids in Japan, but the cultural differences might be questionable for American parents.There's a brief, nondescriptive conversation about homosexuality and ghostly naked figures (think Barbie doll) that areillustrated, although it's not nudity as much as the female form. The dubbed version has minor edits in actionand dialogue, targeting a slightly younger crowd. --Doug Thomas
Description:
Kisenian, traveling from a far away galaxy, disguised as a meteor, aims to gather all the "positive" energy from the Earth and plant the seeds of "negativity" leaving Earth full of hatred. Unable to do this on her own, Kisenian preys on the vulnerable heart of Darien's childhood friend, Fiore. Fiore, jealous of Sailor Moon and Darien's passionate friendship, joins Kisenian in her wicked endeavor to gather energy from every star and planet!

I Bought this along withthe other two movies several years ago and i love it. i cried during the battle scene. i got picked on for admitting to that by someone who didn't support my being a fan of Anime.
believe me if i could afford the dvd of this movie i would buy it because i love the romance between Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask.

When Darien's/Tuxedo Mask's lost friend, Fiore, resurfaces, trouble abounds and it's up to the Sailor Scouts to come to the rescue.
To make matters worse, Fiore kidnaps Darien. He is also responsible for the massive meteor/flower-planet that's on a collision course for Earth.
Testing the bonds of friendship and reaching deep inside to find their inner strengths, the Sailor Scouts must come together to thwart the threat before it's too late.

Rating: - Best Sailor Moon Movie Ever

I finally did when I got this DVD.Everyone was right.Although the dub is still pretty good, the original is even more better.The dialogue ... Read More
