I would encourage you to play the VN instead of watching the anime.  It's generally regarded as being superior to the anime.

But ofcourse, the VN takes more time.  So it's sort of a tradeoff.

There's a manga too, but noone's heard of that.

I was kind of in "awe" after finishing the movie at the moment when writing that review so i guess that's the impression the movie would leave upon you.

Regardless, this movie WILL NOT MAKE SENSE if you don't watch the anime or the VN; i probably loved the movie so much because unlimited blade works in the VN felt shallow without the action being animated. They did a good job for still scenes, but obviously the VN fans wanted something more and the movie delivers.

Unlimited blade works set the feeling and action sequences in anime form, but the story wasn't explained throughly enough for me to recommend to someone who is new to fate/stay night. I think it's a way of the animators giving a big middle finger to the people who criticized the FS/N anime to be too much of a pussy parade (forgive my use of language); kind of like saying "YOU WANT VIOLENCE? YOU WANT ACTION?!?! ALL RIGHT LEEEEEEEEROOOYYYYY FUCKING JENKINS~! HERE WEE GO! MAXIMUM GAR ESTABLISHED"

Another interesting thing to note is that the movie stayed true to the VN in the scenes it did show, with even remakes of the images that popped up here and there in the VN.
