Politics and warfare from multiple perspectives is already somewhat uncommon in anime. Just that set in the real world is even less common, and adds an interesting layer of entertainment especially if you have an interest in history and geopolitics. This film delivers well for people that enjoy war and politics. Cold war, explosions, nukes, space lasers. Also if you're someone that's interested in military craft this series definitely looks like it was given a lot of care from people who are very enthusiastic about historical aircraft and ships and things of that nature. You could almost say it has "fan service" for fighter jets. Theromantic subplot stole from the movie in my opinion, it wasn't really necessary and didn't make it any more entertaining. I also couldn't find a quality copy of it, the copy I watched was downright dreadful in clarity. Could barely see what was going on in some action scenes. Suppose it's better than being "lost" material like the Xevious film. I also have some qualms with its morals though my opinions here are probably unpopular. Definitely worth a watch though, more-so than most anime films I've seen.
