Editorial Review:
Amazon.com
The fourth Gundam feature (1988) takes place 14 years after the third and continues the rivalry between Earth Federation mecha pilot Amuro Ray and Char Aznable, now ruler of the space realm of Neo-Zeon. Char so hates the Earth, he plans to bombard the planet with asteroids, causing a deadly nuclear winter. Although the corrupt Earth Federation commands vastly superior resources, all that really stands in Char's way is Amuro and his Nu Gundam Mobile Suit. Writer-director Yoshiyuki Tomino continues the story of the Newtypes, humans who possess psychic powers. The latest possessor of these abilities is Quess Paraya, an obnoxious teenager who whines and fusses until she's finally killed. Char's Counterattack is essentially a two-hour space battle, and although Tomino had only limited technology at his disposal, the choreography of the mecha duels is generally effective and exciting. Rated 13 Up: Violence, mostly robot vs. robot. --Charles Solomon

5 out of 5 stars A great ending to the legends of Gundam..........2007-01-21

U.C. 0093. Thirteen years after the end of the One Year War, the legendary Char Aznable has returned. Vowing to defeat the Earth Federation and complete humanity's migration into space, Char and his Neo Zeon forces begin bombarding Earth with asteroids in order to render the planet uninhabitable.

With the Federation too weak and corrupt to oppose Neo Zeon, the task of thwarting Char's plan falls to the Londo Bell taskforce and its ace pilot, Amuro Ray. The old rivalry of Char and Amuro begins again, and this time the fate of the world hangs in the balance...

Overall, this is what I considered the best movie in the series.

4 out of 5 stars last of the truly great Gundams.......2006-11-25

This feature is a nice way to wind up the original Gundam plotline started in the original Mobile Suite Gundam. Nicely done it is far better than the later overblown "Junk" that came out of Japan. Most of the older animation fans,like myself, have been "Gundamed to Death" with un-imaginative re-makes and re-hashes. This is a nice conclusion to the Saga.

5 out of 5 stars One of the BEST Gundam Movies Out There........2006-04-10

This is definetly one of the best Gundam movies out there. This is particulary one of the main movies in the Gundam franchize, If u watched the original 3 part Mobile Suit Gundam Movies then u should get it almost right away. BUT if u watch the ugly Gundam Wing and Gundam Seed series than u will get confused as HEll. This takes place about 13-14 years after the events of the original gundam and right now Char Aznable is the supreme leader of zeo-neon, and since he has a furious hatred fo the planet Earth forcing everyone to live and outer space, he is planning to cause asteroids to hit the planet and to cause a global ice age. But once again our hero Amuro Ray is back and ready to stop Char and kicking his ass in the process. The story is well put together but since the artwork was originally made in the early 90's it will be uncomfertable for a while to todays anime art style. I highly recommed this DVD to hardcore mech/gundam fans cuz trrrrrrrrrrruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuusssssssst me u will not get dissapointed.

4 out of 5 stars DVD Review.......2005-10-25

It is good DVD to watch. However, it is difficult to understand a little bit if the person has not watched the Saga from the beginning. This version is a follow-on to Mobible Gundam Zeta which will be available on Amazon.com soon.
