A decent return to form after the disappointing and overly-morose Nolandia Affair, Project Eden is far more in line with the style and tone of the TV series. The plotline is unfortunately too thin to fill out the 80 minute runtime and just doesn't have as much substance as the TV episodes did, but the film makes up for it with an incredible sense of style. Dirty Pair always has fantastic action and the animation here is top-notch. The production design in general is a bit creepier than usual and it almost feels like a Metroid anime in places, and the atmosphere and music areboth spectacular. That sense of style does a lot of heavy lifting because otherwise this kind of feels like the Rocky 4 of anime, in the sense that it's about 30 minutes of plot with 60 minutes of stylish music videos and action. That's not bad and it's still a ton of fun to experience visually, but it's also not super compelling, though there are still some good elements to the story. This installment introduces a very fun Han Solo-esque rogue in the form of Carson D. Carson, who gets the only really meaningful character arc. The ending is such a corny crap-out it kind of brings the film down a bit even more, but I still enjoyed another reasonably fun adventure with the Pair.
