I don't know why all the previous reviewers gave this such a good score. Most likely they're looking too deeply into it, and not just looking at in on a normal level, more rather, a English Literature level. The movie was terrible. Simple as that. but I'll break it down, just so you don't get a wrong Idea about it.

Story: 6
The story of this movie follows on from when Nymph, Ikoras and Astraea had defeated Chaos evolved. the first 40 minutes (give or take) is a recap of the previous two series of Sora No Otohimono (Heaven's Lost Property), of which the movie is a ... sequel to. Not many people enjoyed it but I did, mainly because it showed a lot of the comedic parts and also because I enjoy the character, Nymph, a lot, and it showed a bit of recap on her. Even so I found it unnecessary. I'm not sure if anyone else does this, but as far as I am concerned, I never watch a movie that is sequel to a series, before actually watching the series, why would I? moving on, the storyline then starts to develop at a steady pace showing more of Hiyori and her experience with the Tomoki and friends. It mixed comedy with drama, and I enjoyed that, even though the transition was quite poor. The turning point for me was Hiyori's death. That's when the storyline really sucked. from Hiyori's death on, it was rushed. Simply as that, it's as clear as a bell (pun intended [Hiyori for those who don't pick up on it]). Obviously, they wanted this 'production' to only last 90 minutes, and that's where they lost their touch. I down graded them from a 8 or 9 to a 6 because the next 30 minutes made me want to cry, cry from pity of this movie. They destroyed a lot of anticipation from late season two (where Hiyori was introduced, and so was these 'capsules') all the way to Hiyori's death. They poorly told the purpose of the capsules, and only showed the obvious. (the Manga may have done the same, I do not know, I'm only stating what I have observed.) They should have got rid of the recap and allowed the storyline more space to grow. In regards to plot, the last 30 minutes went through all of the main structural point (Problem, Suspense, Climax and resolution) so fast and so confusingly, I really wanted to punch my laptop screen. I believe the producers and directors deserve to have had a pay cut on this 'production.' I feel sorry for Funimation for having very little to work with, but had no choice (well they did but, you know what I mean) to dub this because of the popularity of the previous two seasons. My disappointment is great. I would have given the storyline a 4 (harsh but if you've seen it and didn't watch it on an English literature level, you'd understand) but the first 60 minutes I did enjoy.

Art: 7
On a happier note, I love the artwork of this anime. The colours are bright and colourful, they easily manipulate your emotions because once a sad scenes appears, they'll dull the colours that it's a bit of a shock and a large transition that you also feel sad. This was not so much the case in the movie, but even so, the other aspects were still there and just as good. I love the chibi forms of all the characters are amazing, they supply such a comedic atmosphere. The clothing designs suit the characters a lot too, and I find a lot of them cute on Nymph. This may not seem so important to some people, but it's good to see a variety of clothing on character, makes them appear more interesting. also the scenic and angeloidic attacks artwork is amazing, I love them. The scenic may not be detailed sometimes, but they don't have to be detailed to look good.

Sound: 7
I didn't pay much attention to the sound, but the soundtrack is fairly good, and the sound effects of the angeloids are awesome.

Character: 6
Although 6 may sound harsh, when you think about it, this movie supplies very little character development of the original characters. Even when Nymph was about to brave up and confess her love to Tomoki, or Ikoras wanting to sacrifice herself with Hiyori (the second), it seemed so awkward and felt like it wasn't suppose to be there. They gave very little time to lead up to it and have a proper feel for the happenings. Hiyori is a bit of a boring character really. She's the typical quite-spoken, shy and kind girl. Although she braves it out in Tomoki's challenges, it doesn't say much about her personality because the purpose is to supply comedy of her doing such ridiculous things with her kind of personality. On the whole, I do enjoy that sort of character, but compared to the other's changing and different personalities (such as Nymph being a stuck up, superior-feeling, mean personality, to a more tsundere (kinda), fun, soapy-loving personality) she comes of as. Plain.

Enjoyment: 6
Overall: 6
I'm putting them two together because the reason why is the same. I found the enjoyment and overall of this movie very disappointing. my anticipation had been destroyed with a poor Plot at the end, and a 40 minute recap. It was somewhat enjoyable, like I said before, but unnecessary all the same. In comparison to the previous seasons, this is just bad. I believe they should have cut down on the numerous and some of the time unnecessary comical relief episodes of both season one and two, and changed this movie in 3 or 4 episodes into the season, allowing a continuous and flowing transition from the storyline and also, giving the plot more time to develop and prosper. Very disappointing, and I'm sure I'm going to be just as disappointed with the next movie; Sora no Otoshimono Final: Eternal My Master.
