The animated movie that seems to be getting the most hype in Japan is
Vexille, directed by Appleseed Producer Fumihiko Sori who is best known as
the award winning director of the live action movie "Ping Pong" (2002).
Here's a review of the movie in English:

It starts tomorrow. Interestingly, the lead role is performed by a live
action actress and not an anime seiyuu. In fact, the other two lead roles
are not performed by anime seiyuus. Anime fans will recognize some of the
supporting voice actors such as Romi Paku who plays Takashi - she is the
voice of Edward Elric in FMA, Hitsugaya in Bleach, and Temari in Naruto
among others.
Funimation is the North American licensee. They don't have the movie up on
their website; however, I would hope a movie of this stature gets a quick
release preferably in theaters. Here's the Japanese site with a couple of
trailers (the link is in English and you get three choices listed in
Japanese when you click on it):
