This has got to be one of the strangest and most unique features I have ever seen, but I still like this movie. The animation looks nice and I like some of the darker scenes like the one with the locusts. It is isn't as funny as the other movies, but I think it let's you look at the character's more serious sides. Personally I would give this a Buy rating, but I realize that this might be too weird for some so I am giving it a Rent rating.

OK, this movie is unquestionably the weirdest 90 minutes of anime I have ever seen—even weirder than Excel Saga. "Surreal" doesn't even begin to describe how weird it is. It's tough to know how to recommend it. It's well made and there are probably layers and layers of symbolism to analyze and debate, but I think this is the kind of thing you really have to be in the mood for. The artwork is lovely, and much of the imagery is lyrical. There's very little humor, just strangeness. (Did I mention that this movie was weird?) Bottom line: Don't watch it unless you're prepared for some very trippy stuff. And whatever you do, don't make this your introduction to Urusei Yatsura! But if you feel like watching something seriously bizarre, it'll be worth your while. Last updated Thursday, August 09 2001. Created Thursday, August 09 2001. | ||||||||
