Evangelion: 1.0 You Are (Not) Alone
Evangelion: 1.0 You Are (Not) Alone turns the opening stretch of its story into one tense 100-minute movie. Amazon Prime Video carries it along with the other Rebuild of Evangelion films. Also released as Evangelion Movie 1: Jo, this 2007 Studio Khara production works as a starting point for viewers who have never seen Evangelion. Its mecha battles arrive with plenty of scale, yet the film keeps returning to the frightened young pilot inside the machine. The brisk format favors momentum without losing the isolation and psychological pressure that give the conflict its bite. Watch it if you like science fiction action that treats combat as an emotional burden rather than a power fantasy.
About
Evangelion: 1.0 You Are (Not) Alone begins in a world scarred by catastrophe, where a fortified city faces attacks from enormous beings. A withdrawn teenager is called to the city by his distant father and ordered to pilot a towering biomechanical weapon. He has little time to understand the adults directing him or the quiet fellow pilot already involved in the fight. As each attack raises the danger, he must decide whether he can keep entering the machine while fear and loneliness close in around him. The movie balances large-scale science fiction combat with the private strain of being asked to carry a responsibility no young person would choose.
