Other than for the nostalgia associated with the Sailor Moon series, I watched this movie because I wanted to watch everything of SM.
[6] Story
It matches the R season's theme, but meets a bit of Mamoru's past along the way. In the general context of Sailor Moon, I think it was ok/average.
[5] Animation
I considered the animation a bit weaker than the series. Also there were some awkward, slow scenes that are a bit off comparing to what anybody's used to in SM.
[5] Sound
Also, I thought the sound could be better explored in the movie. I believe that it loses quality comparing to the series.
[7] Character
Characters acted similarly to the series, even though the poorer animation and dialogues made a slight difference. Also, I think that throughout the story of Sailor Moon, the characters are the best part and make the series most enjoyable.
[6] Enjoyment
I didn't enjoy the movie as much as the series for a few simple reasons... the first would be that the story moved on too fast (sometimes the series moves too slow, in my opinion, but this was too much for 1 hour), and the second would be that the technical aspects of the movie were poorer comparing to the rest of the series.
[6] Overall
I do like the main storyline and I think there are many deep thoughts and feelings engraved in it, much like the rest of SM, but I expected a little more at least. I do recommend if you're a fan or if you want the nostalgia, but otherwise I think you'll be disappointed.

One of my favorite movies as a kid. I still love it to this day.
