3/5

The film displays a surreal visual brilliance, augmenting the painterly romanticism of the original series into a gyroscopic wildness worthy of the digital age.

4/5

The ultimate summation of Anno's grand design, highlighting the extraordinary visuals of the franchise... all centered around Shinji's embracing of what neon genesis really means.

The cumulative result of all this inventive intercutting is a nostalgic reminder of everything that makes Evangelion not just psychologically complex, but balls-to-the-wall fun.

9/10

Evangelion 3.0 + 1.01 brings the latest iteration of the legendary franchise to a close with a grand-scale finale that actually puts an understandable and definitive end on the series as a whole, whether that’s what you want or not is up to you.

... whether you’re coming to "Evangelion" fresh or as a veteran, there’s little doubt in my mind that audiences will agree that Anno stuck the landing, finding a way to end not just on a positive note, but a life-affirming one.

loved it amazing movie , favorite series ever with a doubt. the man's poured his soul into this and if u have followed along his work , u can really see his emotional state and state of mind. I'ma huge Eva fan tho, I have everything Eva so I'm a biased fan from clothes , room decor to a 15k Eva rog computer to a car that's wrapped in Eva aesthetics. #1 fan
