Just wanted to add, since other people here are giving imprecise information when it comes to which parts of the movie is new content: The first 14 minutes is new content (not just 5-10 minutes), 2 of which is the opening, and the last 11 minutes is new content; 7 minutes of new scenes, then a 3 minute ending, and then a 1 minute scene that teases the next season. If you've already watched all of season 1, then these scenes (minus the OP and ED) are the ones you should be watching. Now you know.

About 90% of this movie is identical to the 1st season. Only thing different is the very beginning and the very end that bridges this movie to the 2nd season. If you've seen the 1st season, this movie is a recap of the 1st season.

Well this is a full recap of the first season and as others mentioned only reason you should go for it if you already finished with the 1st season is to see the small transition from s1 to s2. Mostly check the first 5-10 min and the last 10 min of it. For fans

Basically just a quick recap of Chuuni. If you've seen the whole series (and you're not a die hard fan) there is no true reason to watch this except for the little extra bit at the beginning.

Disappointing in that its not a true "different" perspective. It would have been interesting to have seen events through Rikka's POV.
If you have watched the original series, watch the beginning of the movie as it does have a short new intro before it gets into recap.
If you are entirely new to the series, this recap doesn't cover the entire depth of the series so it would be better to start with the original.

This movie consists of 10 minutes of (pretty good) new content, 75 minutes of recap, ending credits and a very short teaser for Season 2.
It was said before that the story is retold from Rikka's point of view; that's not entirely correct. It's just that the recap is more focused on Rikka than on Togashi, but there are no additional scenes or dialogues (at least I didn't notice any).
It's not a bad recap, though. It compiles the best moments of the show well and is a good summary of the original story. It's NOT a substitute for it, though – there's vital information missing, so DON'T watch it if you haven't seen the first season.
But a recap is a recap. If you liked Chuunibyou, watch the first ten minutes and the last minute. If you liked Chuunibyou and it's been a while since you've watched it, go ahead and watch the recap, too. And don't forget the Lite special.
tl;dr: Recap without relevant new content after the first ten minutes. For fans.

female, bloodtype: A, , absent-mindedAbsent-mindedness is a mental state of inattentive, careless, and/or forgetful behavior related to distraction from one`s environment. Someone is said to be absent-minded as a permanent trait, as opposed to as a transitory state, when they are commonly or recurringly become so. It is caused by any of: low overall attention ("blanking" or "zoning out"), hyperfocus on a single target leading to obliviousness to anything else, and unwarranted distraction of attention by irrelevant events., clumsyA clumsy person is one lacking in coordination, and as such prone to often having accidents such as tripping, bumping into objects, or dropping things. In female characters, this is often thought of as endearing., eccentricBecause normal people are no fun., energeticAn energetic character, often also called a genki character, shows great, often excessive levels of activity or vitality, and seems to always be doing everything extra fast. Genki characters are often slightly, or sometimes very, eccentric, and are filled with confidence and determination, regardless of whether they are competent or not; in fact, they often have little to no actual competence at whatever they generally do., lonelyLoneliness is an unpleasant feeling in which a person feels a strong sense of emptiness and solitude resulting from inadequate levels of social relationships. However, it is a subjective experience. Loneliness has also been described as social pain — a psychological mechanism meant to alert an individual of isolation and motivate her/him to seek social connections.
(Source: Wikipedia), moeMoe is a Japanese slang loanword that refers to feelings of strong affection mainly towards characters in anime, manga, and video games. At the anime level, the cute girls doing cute things (CGDCT) tag may also apply., swimsuitA swimsuit is a garment designed to be worn by people engaging in water-based activities or sports or during certain activities under sunlight. Most kinds of swimsuit reveal a large portion of the body surface area. In anime, it is common for at least one episode to feature the characters in swimsuits, usually as an excuse for gratuitous fanservice; swimsuits, particularly one-piece swimsuits, are a very common fetish in Japan. One-off appearances of characters in swimsuits should not be tagged., yellow eyesThis character has yellow eyes.
