Steven Universe: The Movie

This is something special. It has heart, and great characters, and all of the best aspects of the show. This is special.

I really loved it. I would have loved it more if there was more plot development for the show overall, and if a few things had happened differently. But the target audience is literally kids, not 25 year olds, so I'm not going to hold the things that I feel could be better against the show. I bet kids absolutely adored it, and that's who it's for.

An absolutely beautiful soundtrack with songs that keep getting stuck in my head

Spinel is the best villain Steven Universe has given us! She has a heartbreaking backstory, an intimidating appearance, personality, and set of powers. And a devious voice. She's also very identifiable, and you understand why she's doing what she's doing. She's also really funny! Her opening song is simple yet very catchy and memorable! And her backstory song cuts you deep. I almost teared up myself. Top all of this off with a dedicated performance from the talented Sarah Stiles and you got yourself a perfect villain!

Apart from Spinel, this movie doesn't really improve upon anything else. It still has the great voice acting, funny comedy, catchy songs, memorable characters, intense action, and beautiful animation we've all come to know and love.

The series is a prerequisite to watching this movie, however. I highly encourage you to do so, it's pretty great. I have some issues with it but... yeah. Go watch it.

No words. I LOVE THIS MOVIE. I thought it wasn't going to be that great when I found out it was going to be a musical, but it's soooo well done and yet so emotive. I LOVE CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT!! Also, this movie made me realize that there are still some things that can be done with the show, so I hope we get another season.

An excellent, emotive, really powerful movie. I love it. I'd watch again.
