Review of Revolutionary Girl Utena: The Movie (1999) by Curtis W — 13 Jul 2010

A beautifully rendered summarization of the gorgeous anime series of the same name, this movie does not dissapoint fans of the series or manga. With the student council members of Ohtori academy suffering from sexual miscommunication, unrequited dreams, and being forced to duel for the courtship of the schools' headmasters' daughters' boyfriends' sister(sorry that sounded sort of confusing) not a dry moment exists in this outstanding piece of cinema.

But please note: IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN THE SERIES, READ THE MANGA, OR EVEN HEARD OF REVOLUTIONARY GIRL UTENA, THEN YOU PROBABLY WILL NOT LIKE THE MOVIE, so please read into this series before watching the movie to fully understand its meta-physical adolescence allegory or you will probably get lost in it!
