Yes & H3ll no.
I would say it's a decent title for a stand alone, but to tell the truth it's not that that great, & if you liked the show chances are you won't like the movie. The character's personalities are switched around, & stuff like that.
Plus Escaflowne is only part of the movie for like 20 minutes if that. Although I must say the fight sceanes were wonderful.
So, over all it's a decent movie, but I wouldn't pull any teeth to see it. As for being a condensed version, like I said it has the whole gist of the show, it's just not to detailed on the plot.
For those of you who have seen it you'll probably know what I'm talking, epeacially when you look at Van's intent through out the entire movie, but then when he's at his goal his morals take a 50 foot leap, & his goal changes for no reason at all.
I'd like to say that I haven't seen the movie in a while so I may be a bit off on what I've said.
Results: Watch it, you won't learn anything new, but you'll see a different side of the plot/story itself; even if this side has little in common with the show.

If Max Collins, Matt Skiba, Jimmy Urine, & Mark Phillips had a child it would be one fu*ked up mofo, but 'it' would be the God of music.
