Imagine a story about gigantic fighting robots mixed with Teutonic chivalry, teenage angst, and tarot cards: that is the world of ESCAFLOWNE, a highly successful animated series that has been transformed into a stunning feature-length film. A more adult version of the animé, the film ESCAFLOWNE retells the events of the television series in a drastically different manner; no previous knowledge of the series is necessary. The story follows Hitomi, a dissatisfied teenager who is suddenly transported to Gaea. There, Van and his brother Folken fight for control of dragon armor, the most powerful mecha in the land; only one will emerge from the conflict alive. The motion-picture format is perfect for portraying the ethereal vistas of Gaea, floating airships, and the larger-than-life combat between the dragon armors.

User Reviews: Escaflowne (2002)

  • Overall:

    Anime movie of the year!

    By viciousdamsel  Oct 24, 2002

    This movie is absolutely wonderful. It has everything you could want in a movie -action/adventure, drama, beautiful artwork, extraordenary music, character development, an intriging plot, and so much more!I have to say, my favorite part is the openin...g scene with Van (who is delishously voiced by Kirby Morrow) fighting on the enemy ship. I'm not really a person for action, but the music combined with the excellently choreographed swordfighting and Van(did I mention he's really hot too?)makes an outstanding introductory scene.I would recommend buying the limited edition version of the movie, because of the soundtrack (you gotta love Yoko Kanno) and the extras disc is cool too.Even if you don't buy this movie, at least rent it or find some other way to view it. It's an experiance you won't forget. Read more Less

  • Overall:

    A must see

    By Joshua  May 29, 2001

    The movie was incredible. Though it did stray much from the plot of the anime series, the movie was still nothing short of spectacular. Even the soundtrack was great. If you've never seen a japanese animation movie before, this is the perfect way ...to start. Read more Less
