Well, if I wanted to watch the same story as the original, but now in 3D, I could just play the PS3 game. I loved it! And I grew up with Saint Seiya on the 90's. What I like the most is that its original, non repetitive, and the effects are great. People who criticize the movie need to open their minds a bit and understand that when you bring new versions of an anime or movies you need to change stuff around, otherwise it would be boring and predictable. I love the original script, don't get me wrong, but this movie shows a "what if" the original was little different, like actually make a gild saint a girl like Milo. I believe it looks more real, and come on! ya'll already grown up! Don't expect to be impressed with stuff that you saw when you were 10 o 15. Let things change a little bit and appreciate the art and animation that new generations are bringing. Its like watching an extra ending! Yes, it lack depth, but what did you expect in 90 minutes? At least shows the attraction between Seiya and Saori, and full hatred from Saga. The rest could be explained in some other future adaptations. Keep an open mind peeps, and enjoy this movie as if you have never have watched Saint Seiya before.

So i read some of the other reviews above and people saying this was rush or either saying the movie had no explanation at all is really annoying sometimes. For example if you are not a Saint Seiya fans then the new viewers don't know whats happening, i can see where that is coming from. You have to also compare it to Final Fantasy 7 advent children also. That movie doesn't explain what was also happening much in the story unless you already play the game from PS1. I never owned a PS1 so i never played FF7. Also matter to me was that the movie in FF7 AC was Kadaji saying, "mother". WHO THE HELL IS THIS MOTHER! I'm new to Final fantasy as people are new to Saint Seiya. This is a must watch movie for Saint Seiya fans!

*SPOILER ALERT*I'm only gonna waste a few words to say what i have to about this movie.First of all, sure there is an incredible 3D animation but seriously do i have to give up to the anime i loved growing up with just for that?STORYLINE... bang, shot to the heart and stomped over... CHARACTERS...twisted into 9% funny, 90% bullshit and finally 1% true to the anime.Now i know this movie was meant for a new audience and with a twist of the original plot, but what i saw, seriously, they wrecked my world and not in a good way

It's a rather patchwork of disjointed and poorly explained situations, it has so many loose ends, that only a legitimate fan of anime and manga is able to see a logical script line. Despite presenting a very good CGI,lush scenery and characters with huge potential the movie fails miserably in creating a new audience for Saint Seiya universe and please the old fans. Analyzing purely as a common movie, it's just mediocre and will be easily forgotten by youngers ... The final script brink of chaos, undergoes a bewildering do speeds up precisely in the huge point of this movie, where should really be about, the battles. Whitch are the base point of original saga plot. Here, only three can be described as the level of what is expected of the franchise, the other comes down in one or two hits and go for resounding defeats. One of the main character has a death that takes seconds to happen without even a real confrontation. This movie completely lost the basic points of the original plot. However the Saint Seya universe does not allow the film to be classified as just a kids movie. All a dark tone, violent, while psychologically loaded, with cursing, self motivation speeches and mantras about friendship and trust were exchanged with a jocular tone, with dry and empy dialogs and contained violence and forced misplaced comedy. But worst of all was one of the characters subvert. He was originally a psychopathic killer and became sort of a carnivalesque version of Cap. jack Sparow. paradoxically singing in harmony with those who would represent the agony of the imprisoned souls of their victims as macabre props ..your necrophiliac house was turned into a Disney musical stage. Not to mention he was defeated effortlessly by a challenger. By any reference to the original story, it should be a dark character and provide a real challenge to be defeated. To quote one of the many holes in the script, the story cites the need to cross all the houses of the signs, but some are summarily ignored. In short, it's a caricatured representation of what the anime represented over a very weak and careless script. The climax of the film is equally disappointing, contains all the clichés about confronting the grand final villain.
