kerniraelflord G-Savior is a film based on Kidou Senshi Gundam created by Yoshitoki Tomino but nothing could be farther from the spirit of the original. Gundam is about the tensions which arise from a separation of peoples between space colonies and Earth. While I give the actors credit for doing a very good job and making the movie palatable the writers and producers had little to no familiarity with the original Kidou Senshi Gundam when they created this monstrosity. While the basic plot has much potential by attaching it to the Universal Century, the time line of Kidou Senshi Gundam, which incidentally translates to Mobile Soldier Gundam, they have destroyed any credibility they might have had. Kidou Senshi Gundam is a "real robot" series which abides by the laws of physics as we understand them. G-Savior skips out on much of this by doing things such as having space suits which are not sealed and the like. This is a good movie to play in the background of a raucous party but the film has no value as anything related to Kidou Senshi Gundam.
joedon66 This would have been a great Gundam movie if they had focused less on the romantics and more on what people watch Gundam for, the Mobile Suits. I'm not saying that the different Gundam series don't have plots that are very interesting and bring the audience in, i'm saying that this movie focused too much on the relationship between Mark(Gundam pilot) and the two central women in the story. When the Suits do come out to play it is intense and visually amazing but unfortunately this only occurs 2 times throughout the entire movie!! All-in-all I would consider this to be a good movie that attempted to do much and took away from what could have been an awesome Gundam movie.
AlucardDjin When I watched G Saviour I was very excited because as a bit of a gundam fan it was new to me. But when watching it i expected some of the gundam ideals to be put in there, Like with Kira from seed, protecting a group of friends but then learning fighting is not the way, even to start saving the enemy from death. However in G Saviour we have more American film ideals, the lone hero is in the gundams but not as obvious as it is in this film, and right away he wants to save the world but does not care for the other side no mater who they are. Even Herro Yui began to realise there was good people on both sides! so in this case i was disappointed a bit, however it did redeem its self by hinting at the fact that there was confusion to which side was right, and the use actually following the style flow of gundam with the off world colonies. Also...even after all that...if you don't give a poop about the missing element of Japaneses-godlyness, it has large Robots with energy blades! 'nuf said! =p people ENJOY its got something for all, even the kiddies
Geshar Have two hours of your life to waste? Come on in! G Saviour is the worst of the worst, possibly the most tainted and cliche Gundam series to date.Starting out like the bad made for tv movie that it is and ending up exactly where any 5 year old would guess it would, G Saviour's only saving grace would be it's few combat scenes, all done in rather expensive CGI. However, all of these make very poor use of the actual mecha, and show more of the colonies and outer space. The G Saviour it self moves in unexplaniable ways, making it self seem less like a Gundam and more like a "guy in a monster suit" from good old Power Rangers.If your intrested in getting into Gundam, DONT watch this movie. If, however, you want to see the horrid stunt that Bandai pulled for yet another Gundam aniversery, then by all means, watch this. Either way, you'll regret that you did.
