 "More Thought than action."This is not Gundam. But thats good I dont like Gundam. Neither is it Ghost in the Shell which I really liked. But it is very good and is a complete story in itself which seems rare in Anime. Great Visuals and a different adult tone than most anime. If you like Adult Anime this is one to get. "If looks made it all!"This movie is one of the best "Looking" films I have seen in quite a long time. The effects and animation are bettered by none. The story is a typical Appleseed story but in english it lacks the energy that you get with the Japanese sound track and english subtitles. With choice of sound tracks (DD 5.1 english, DD 5.1 Japanese, DD 2.0, DTS 5.1 Japanese only and others to boot) there is always something there to suite your audio set up. I recommend this if you are a real Manga fan and my only downside on this movie is the english translation lacks the energy that this film offers.  "I love it"I really loved the movie. The graphics were amazing and I liked the plot better than the original cel animation version of it. "Great Action Film and Graphics"This was a great film. Although true this film is a rewrite from the original and does not relate to it in anyway other than the name and characters, it was very entertaining. There are 2 disks in this set. The second DVD is what will comprise of all the extras. It includes the making of the film as well as interviews with much of the cast and crew. It also has a music video amongst some other things as well. Great graphics and great action film. Graphics are almost as good as Final Fantasy : Spirits Within. There are many action sequences in the film which will keep you on edge, it almost felt like I was actually there. "Alot better than I thought"This movie was great, The battles were awsome and looked sweet, the city and buildings looked quite real, the charaters looked a bit more cartoony then some others but I here they were on a limited budget, I wish they would have spent a little more time on the sceens from the global war, the voices were clear and easy to understand and the story was awsome, I dont know why we love to have movies were humans are on the brink of destroying themselves but it makes sense, The last few minutes of the flim was the best with the moving fortresses, if anyone has anything bad to say about this movie then I will doubt that they actually watched it. |
