Short review I wrote up on a couple of forums:
quick spoilerless review:
I missed the movie the first night because I got trashed on the plane and then got trashed when I got into Nagoya. Almost missed it the second night because of same reason. Bought one of those Eva-01 things for your drink, didn't bother with the other merchandise because the line was insanely long. There were cute girls there too. Story is very straightforward and told mostly chronologically. Maybe 2 or 3 flashbacks that last maybe a second or two. Lilith's mask is different, Ramiel looks AWESOME, I mean, REALLY AWESOME. Nerv is now spelled in all CAPS. There's a lot of blood. We get to see Rei's nipple as well as full nudity. The whole "if daughter then Rei, if son then Shinji" is a little different, I don't quite get it. The preview eva looks, interesting. Glasses girl in preview looks like Misaki from Darker than Black. The Kaworu part was a little confusing, going to pay more attention to that and the Lilith part the next time I watch it.
GAINAX was in the ending credits.
Rei's smile is unchanged, the dialog itself leading up to it sounded
the same as from the TV series. It was redone so it looks cleaner.
Aside from Rei's nipple, we do get to see her fully nude while she's
changing into her plugsuit.
The new girl doesn't look like Mana or Mayumi (but who knows)
End of line.
