the movie plays out like an Elmore Leonard penned neo-Western. It has the coin flip guy from No Country and one of the bank robbers reminds me of Jack from BrBa.
This movie doesn’t have to contend with adapting the series, which frees it up to be a *movie.* the concept of Shinji & co dealing with Angels works well for a tv show, where each Angel can be dealt with in an episode or two. But this makes the pacing of the first two rebuilds difficult. This entry into the series doesn’t have this problem. It can still have a huge Eva battle, but it doesn’t have to have three or four Angel battles scattered throughout.
The world is threatened, Justice League saves the day. Movie ends with a big fight. Doesn’t take any risks, is just a perfectly serviceable superhero team story
