The new 5.1 surround sound remix for Hideaki Anno's watershed Neon Genesis Evangelion works most effectively in the battles with the Angels, and these episodes offer two epic combat sequences. In episode 6, Shinji tackles Ramiel, the Fifth Angel, using a special rifle that requires all the electrical power in Japan. The eerily quiet scenes of the darkening archipelago contrast sharply with the furious energy beam attacks that follow. The arrival of arrogant, temperamental Third Child Asuka Sohryu makes life even more miserable for Shinji. In episode 9, he and Asuka use a perfectly coordinated combination of gymnastic and dance movements to defeat Israfel, the Seventh Angel. As the remixed episodes contain no new footage, they're really for viewers who've installed a 5.1 system, but who don't already have this landmark series.----Charles Solomon

By any rational measure, Alan Parker's cinematic interpretation of Pink Floyd's The Wall is a glorious failure. Glorious because its imagery is hypnotically striking, frequently resonant and superbly photographed by the gifted cinematographer Peter Biziou. And a failure because the entire exercise is hopelessly dour, loyal to the bleak themes and psychological torment of Roger Waters' great musical opus, and yet utterly devoid of the humour that Waters certainly found in his own material. Any attempt to visualise The Wall would be fraught with artistic danger, and Parker succumbs to his own self-importance, creating a film that's as fascinating as it is flawed. The film is, for better and worse, the fruit of three artists in conflict--Parker indulging himself, and Waters in league with designer Gerald Scarfe, whose brilliant animated sequences suggest that he should have directed and animated this film in its entirety. Fortunately, this clash of talent and ego does not prevent The Wall from being a mesmerising film. Boomtown Rats frontman Bob Geldof (in his screen debut) is a fine choice to play Waters's alter ego--an alienated, "comfortably numb" rock star whose psychosis manifests itself as an emotional (and symbolically physical) wall between himself and the cold, cruel world. Weaving Waters's autobiographical details into his own jumbled vision, Parker ultimately fails to combine a narrative thread with experimental structure. It's a rich, bizarre, and often astonishing film that will continue to draw a following, but the real source of genius remains the music of Roger Waters. --Jeff Shannon
