A combination of standard, stiff TV-style animation and snazzy-looking digital effects that do little to disguise the fact that the characters barely move. Mar 1, 2002 | Rating: C-

The idea of an ordinary slacker kid being a savior for another world may not be anything new, but Escaflowne literally gives it a new paint job. Apr 19, 2002 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

Typical animé, with cheapo animation (like Saturday morning TV in the '60s), a complex sword-and-sorcery plot and characters who all have big round eyes and Japanese names. Mar 28, 2002 | Rating: C | Full Review…

Loved the ending to the OVA but still enjoyed the film, although Folken killed in the way he was just didn't do it for me...

This is a retelling of the anime of the same name, but is sooooo much better. I ~loved~ the ending.
