Christopher R.

Definitely a must see for all Anime fans...the Cell Animation is great and the story is solid...do not miss your chance to watch this

Rahsaan S.

I agree with Chris, good animation, solid story. Profanity was nice for a change, not unnecessary and fit the mood of the movie. Very good theme, kind of wanted to cheer for the bad guy because their mission was kind of the benefit of mankind.

Jon W.

Felt too short, and many of the concepts and characters felt way too underdeveloped. Like Rahsaan I found myself rooting for the bad guy, but after he's foiled you're still left with this all-powerful computer system and tension with the Biodroids just kind of hanging out there - along with no resolution or development of the film's central premise of a society being oppressive by being too perfect.
