 Classic June 22, 2010

First: in case it was not clear to anybody, these movies are a 'compilation' of the original Mobile Suit Gundam anime series. Basically, they just trimmed up the tv show and turned it into 3 two-hour episodes. I only noticed one or two things that didnt make sense (when he meets Lalah at the house in the middle of nowhere...) but I watched these when I was already familiar with the story. If you dont know much about MSG, it may be more confusing...
Another note: it is only subtitled, there is no English dub.
Despite all that, I highly recommend this. It's an awesome story with interesting characters (Char!), lots of action, and a 'happy' ending (unlike a lot of the Gundam Shows).
If you watch this and enjoy it, I highly recommend it's sequel series(Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam) and the movie Char's Counterattack.

This is the best animated version of the original series. Whatever the series does wrong the movies do right. It has some new animation but its mostly the same as the series so it doesn't look good by todays standards, but that is the only thing wrong with these three movies. if you are a fan of Gundam or if you have a slight intrest in Gundam this is the perfect thing to buy and for 442 minutes 30 dollars is not a bad price.
The original monster that started it all. July 7, 2010

This defines and gave birth to what we know as anime toady. One can see how seed, wing, g, and all the other series got half of their material from.
 it'll get you by August 31, 2010

i watched all 3 of these movies with a friend, and we both came to the same conclusion: they're good, but in the back of your head you know that the actual series is much better and deeper. these three movies are about the same as reading a summery of the plot. they take the 42 or 43 episode series and compresses it into 6 hours and i would have to say that they did a fantastic job of it. even though i was confused and had to look some things up to get a better understanding of what was going on a few times (that being a good definition of a newtype and amuro and lala's relationship), i was still attached to the characters and was excited every time they showed up in Zeta gundam. my biggest complaint is that lala is a very important character to the series and she only gets maybe 15 minutes of screen time in these films. so, if you want to get the general story of the one year war and the main characters of the UC timeline so you can watch Zeta Gundam (the more popular series) then this is a good place to start, but i would recomend to any fan also see the entire original MSG series.
 Despite that it's the "Special Edition" Version... August 6, 2010

The original audio version that came out in 1981-1982 is not available and still has yet to be released in any form outside of the circa-1998 VHS tapes. Those tapes are impossible to find at a decent price and Bandai has access to the 2007 DVD re-release in Japan that was an HD remaster with the original audio and video.
While it's a step in the right direction to keep the classic Gundam series alive, the original versions of these movies are long overdue for a release on DVD. While I believe that Bandai should focus on releasing ZZ, Victory, X, and Turn A and at the very least finish the anime Gundam series before re-releasing something that we already have, if you really want to watch this great movie trilogy then this is your best bet.
3/5
