Note: Alright here's the thing I'm only going to review the first two Eva movies because I have yet to see the third one.

                                                             The Story for 1.11
 

Shinji Ikari receives a  message from his father, asking him to come to Tokyo-3. He is picked up by Misato Katsuragi, and taken to meet his father, at the headquarters of his organization, NERV. Meanwhile, the city of Tokyo-3 is attacked by a strange creature, the Fourth Angel. At NERV HQ, Shinji is shown what his father has been working on: A giant "robot", Evangelion Unit-01. Shinji's father, Gendo Ikari, forces him to pilot it, saying he is the only one who can. Shinji fails to defeat the Angel, and blacks out in pain, but Unit-01 goes berserk and defeats the Angel on its own.

Soon afterwards, Shinji wakes up in a hospital and is officially instated as the pilot of Unit-01, the "Third Boy". Shinji runs into problems in school with Toji Suzuhara, whose sister was injured in the battle. The Fifth Angel, attacks Tokyo-3, and Shinji is forced to battle again. He defeats it, but disobeys orders during the fight, and decides to run away. After making his way to an under construction bridge, he is brought back by NERV employees. At school, Toji forgives Shinji after his experience in the entry plug, and they become friends. Following this, Shinji interacts with his fellow pilot, the mysterious Rei Ayanami for the first time. Another powerful Angel appears, the Sixth Angel, which nearly kills Shinji with its beam attack. It then proceeds to drill down into the Geofront cavern below. When Shinji recovers, Misato takes him down to Central Dogma (instead of Terminal Dogma in the series), where she shows him Lilith, a white giant hanging from a cross. She explains that if an Angel were to unite with Lilith, it would cause Third Impact. This encourages Shinji to pilot Unit-01 again. A plan is developed to defeat the Sixth Angel by using all of the electrical power of Japan to power an experimental positron rifle, which Unit-01 will use to snipe the Sixth while Rei, in Unit-00, supports by blocking its attack. After his first shot fails to kill the Angel, Shinji successfully fires a second shot that destroys the Sixth Angel.

 

The final scene cuts to the moon, where a line of coffins lie on the lunar surface, and a giant bloodstain intersects the landscape through the middle of the row of boxes. Out of one of these rises Kaworu Nagisa, who begins talking to SEELE 01's monolith communicator. Behind them appears to be a secret SEELE moon base, with a white giant similar to Lilith restrained behind them in a scaffolding pit. Kaworu says that the "Third" hasn't changed, and he can't wait to meet Shinji.


                                                                      The Review

  When I first watched this movie I had no clue what Evangelion was. And now when I came back to it I find one major thing wrong with this movie it has less 
padding. I mean where's episode 7 it feels everyone is forgetting about that? And Misato's backstory where was that? I could go on but I won't.
But I will say just one thing: it needs more padding.


Pros

Shinji seems more manly then his original counterpart. 


Better graphics.

Voice acting is fantastic. 

Some of the original cast come back to reprise there roles.   


Cons

To Eva fans this would not be such a good movie.

They leave a lot of stuff out from the TV series.

Misato and everyone at Nerv knows about Terminal Dogma. 



                                                                                          Final verdict


                                                         This rating comes from my personal enjoyment

                                                         
Voice acting: A+

                                                         Music: A++
                                                   
                                                          Story (For Eva fan): C+

                                                          Story(For average Anime fan): A+

                                                           Graphics: A

                                                           Final score: 9/10

                                             This movie is okay for a teen 13 and up.

Last note: That was my review of Eva 1.11 I hoped you liked it I will do 2.22 eventually.
