everything you have heard about this movie is true.

I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

I haven't seen the whole series, just episodes 17-20 from a UFA DVD, "German" title "Pretty Cure", from the bargain bin (2€ being a good deal, I think). But watching all four of them in a row gives quite some impression already, especially the ritual executed once per episode ("Cure White!"- "Cure Black!"- "White thunder!"- "Black thunder!"- "Marble beam!") Two schoolgirl with the typical maximal eyes and minimal noses go through the troubles of normal life, as well as saving the earth from eery foes. A nice addition are Mipple and Mepple, kind of live Tamagotchis living each in one cell-phone, and having their tempers sometimes.Of the episodes, I liked 17 (pupils help harvesting on a farm) best. Maybe I'll get a better feeling for the others on repeat viewing. In any case, with Japanese soundtrack this is a decent addition to an anime fan's collection.. :)
