Evangelion 2.22

The second installment of the Evangelion relaunch takes the promise of the first film and knocks it out of the park. The action is thrilling as we watch the young teen pilots power up their EVA units to save the planet from the invading Angels, but it’s the development of the characters and their interaction that really makes the film more than just a cool anime. The introduction of new characters helps, but it is the growing relationship between the reluctant pilot Shenji and his quiet co-worker Rei that gives the movie heart.
