Sorry people to break this to you, but this movie just fails so much.In short: This isn't UBW. It's "in previous episode:" version of UBW - chunks of story being cut out, only things left are the essential to the plot scenes, with NOTHING of any sort between them. The only thing that I liked was animation and music - fights were done right, and that's about it.
Some of my thoughts about this.
Great potential wasted, personally I wouldn't bother downloading it just yet - check the first part HERE and see if you actually want to download this. And Yes, the whole movie looks like this.
Agreed :( I was pretty disappointed (watch me get -50 reps on this post)

This is clearly not made at all for anyone unfamiliar with UBW, much less anyone unfamiliar with FSN at all.
That said, as a sort of "coolest-scenes-amalgamation" movie with a general tone of "Yeah we skipped that, but you already know what happens bitch NOW WATCH ARCHER AND SHIROU KICK EACH OTHERS ASSES IN BEAUTIFUL HIGH DEFINITION BAM BAM WHAM SLASH", it was pretty damn fucking awesome.
And to those of you who aren't that interested because you're "not really Rin fans": Unlimited Blade Works isn't about Rin. It's about Shirou/Archer.
Fate: About Saber
UBW: About Shirou/Archer
Heaven's Feel: About the Holy Grail War in general
Sure, Shirou's in fate, and Rin is in UBW and Sakura's in Heaven's Feel and Ilya's in all of them and Shiki isn't in any of them and neither is barney BUT ITS NOT ABOUT THEM, at the core.
That's why UBW isn't named "Something about Rin". It's something about Shirou. And Heaven's Feel is another way of translating The Holy Grail War. Fate is fate, of course, because no matter what you do Saber dies (OH GOD WHY?! WHYYYYYYYYY?! WHHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY isn't Hollow Ataraxia translated yet?!)
And I like how they handled the replacement of Tohsaka's Sex Scene, but still managed to keep some of the CGs from it (Just with a little more clothing and 100% more virginity)

(Just with a little more clothing and 100% more virginity)That line cracks me up :P
Anyways, This movie wasn't really made for anyone unfamiliar to FSN. It is totally made for fanservice, anyone who's read the VN just fills in the gaps where they miss it, because really, we just want to see epic fights in HIGH DEFINITION. It's almost kind of nonsensical to believe that you could fit the entire arc of UBW into a measly 2 hours.

I get that the route was focused very much more on the connection between Archer and Shirou. I felt that they should have kept it that way.
Throwing a heroine that Shirou doesn't totally relate to and is way above him seemed horribly unrealistic.
Let me correct myself then: I loved the plot of UBW, and it was written wonderfully.
I just hate how Rin was thrown in as a romantic interest.
This doesn't really have that much to do with me disliking her-- that's a completely different issue. I just think that she's naturally very incompatible with Shirou, and I can't be the only one that felt the awkward forced chemistry between them in UBW.
It actually ruined the entire route for me.

Anyone else a bit sad that they never went through the entire UBW aria for either Archer or Shirou? But overall, I came.

So much more awesome than the origional series ..
(which i own .. Legitimately) .. Archer is better off being archer though ... :P when he's a cynical badass he's the best. ^_^ (much much more close to the route ... )

Go to the Visual Novel Section of the forums. In the recommended VN (Visual Novel) list, there should be Fate Stay Night. From there, follow the links, etc, and download the game + translation patch.
