Watched the 3 movies version, which is a summary of the whole series. Some reviewers consider that the shortened films version is better, as its pace is less erratic & focused, and many useless / uninteresting scenes have been left out. Others consider that some important chara-dev is lacking. It's quite clear indeed that the director's cut gives the feeling of a very packed journey. However, I also believe that the formulaic format of the episode, in which the same elements have all to be gathered in every single one can be tiresome and a bit boring. The movies somehow shake up this generic structure. It has also to be noted that this series might be the best of the franchise.

从Caden父亲去世开始，每一刻都开始触动我的神经。把个人的孤独刻画得太好了，乱序的时间、变换的个人身份，你演会儿我，我演会儿你。我带着自身的苦痛走向你的生命，将它们融合，性爱俱乐部最后走向死亡。前半段节奏不大好，但是不影响我的喜欢。

创革理念下的设定同时赋有严肃与魅力，即便刨去多年来的修修补补依旧有很高完成度。相比之下故事方面则有所欠缺，引出关键吉翁戴肯思想的只是安排三次偶遇与仓促对谈，难得的兄妹线根本不完整。新人类的概念没做足铺垫就于后期泉涌，很是突兀甚至玄乎，从后来哀战士剧场就能看出在很用力地弥补这点。

很热血啊，性爱俱乐部只是那个勇者不败的副标题也太土鳖了，糟蹋了一部好片子。

乱世莫谈儿女情，谁知乱世情更深
