Mobile Suit Gundam is one of the most important franchises in the history of anime, if not the history of science fiction as a whole.
These compilation films are credited for resuscitating the series' fandom following the anime's cancellation earlier that year by capitalizing on the sci-fi fervor in the wake of the Japanese premiere of George Lucas' original Star Wars in 1978.
Aside from their historical significance, the compilation film trilogy is a thrilling, albeit abbreviated way to experience the story of the original series that started it all.
If you've ever been curious to experience the story of teenager Amuro Ray's role in the war between the Earth Federation and the Principality of Zeon, this is as good a place to start as the original series.
