From what I've seen so far, the manga expanded the story and added a lot of stuff that weren't in the film.

Still waiting for the story to the next chapter.

So both the movie and the manga will end at the same point? Would you recommend watching the movie first or reading the manga first?

I assume so.

I guess it's better to see the movie first, I guess. It'll make the manga easier to follow. Not that the movie was easy to understand though, since you're assumed to be familiar with the events of Gundam Unicorn.

The manga doesn't end the same way as the film, so you're going to be in for two totally different experiences (the same way the novelization of the film gives you a totally different take as well). Watch the movie first then go back and check out the manga because the manga adds characters and plot points that aren't included in the anime counterpart.
