Joshua Neo Tokyo really blew up Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/17/22 Full Review Audience Member The animation is definitely the best when considering the time it was created. But in regards to the story, I am appalled at how the movie is rated highly and how it is defended to this day. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/15/25 Full Review Shawan S Akira isn’t just a film; it’s a whole vibe. First off, the animation blew my mind! I found myself stopping the movie every few minutes just to shout, “HOW DID THEY PULL THIS OFF IN 1988?!” The level of detail is absolutely crazy. I’ve never had such a strong urge to ride a bike, even if it means dodging danger in a ruined city. The plot is intense, touching on themes of friendship, shady government actions, and the risks of giving too much power to teens (both psychic and political). You know, classic coming-of-age stuff. And the music? Wow! The chanting, the pounding drums, the creepy synths—it feels like someone turned a wild dream into an epic soundtrack. If you haven’t checked out Akira yet, do yourself a solid and watch it. Just maybe keep the lights on and steer clear of milk for a bit. You’ll be glad you did. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/12/25 Full Review Corina C I saw this movie at 14 years old, immediately bought a copy, and from then on, I have defended and praised this film as the best Anime movie of all time. The visuals alone are award worthy, not to mention the brilliant and engaging plot, the unique and heroic characters, the hypnotizing soundtrack, and the fluid and visceral action scenes, with which the film is jam-packed. From the first 10 minutes to the last 10 mins, Akira dragged me, headfirst, through an animated wormhole that demanded my attention, and gripped my senses, refusing to let go even after the credits had rolled. With only the Ghost in the Shell as its possible rival and equally matched competition, Akira is and will always be the best (hands down) anime, nay, sci-fi film EVER made... at least to me. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/17/25 Full Review Audience Member Even more mind-blowing now, absolutely incredible art in every scene truly amazing to say it was made in 1988. This is one of the films that not only got me in to anime but in to Japanese cinema has a whole. The Cyberpunk vibe is captured perfectly. Characters are great, action scenes are great, plot is you guess it great. A must watch Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/10/25 Full Review Carlos T Filme: AKIRA Assistido: 08-01-25 Elenco: @katsuhiro.otomo.art @katsuhirootomo Modelo: #posapocalipse #ficção Duração: 2H 4m Ano: 1988 Minha opinião: Este desenho, anime é um ícone da história. Exaltado Katsuhiro Otomo é aclamado como um visionário. Neste anime temos a visão da Neo-Tokyo de 2019. Temos Kaneda como líder de uma gang de Bosozuko (gang de motoqueiros) e entre os membros temos Tetsuo amigo de infância de Kaneda, mas ele sempre teve inveja e muito estopim curto. E eles sempre tem uma rixa com a gang do palhaço. Em um dos confrontos com leva Tetsuo a perseguir e isso acaba em um acidente e onde ele encontra com Takashi, que é uma cobaia e foge do laboratório e eles são classificados por números. Uma vez que todos são levados para o laboratório até Tetsuo. E lá se descobre que ele também tem poderes, e são despertados, e assim ele passa a não ter mais controle sobre ele. Enquanto isso kaneda trama uma forma libertar Tetsuo. Mas agora já é tarde pois Tetsuo esta fora de controle que mesmos outras cobaias não consegue segura-lo. E quando ele libera AKIRA que o numero 001. E começa a destruição de tudo e a engolir tudo. Até que em uma ultima ação Kaneda e Kei, conseguem salvar. Roteiro e enredo incrível para uma época onde tudo era feito a moda antiga, as cores, o desenho, designer, estilo inovador, o roteiro, o enredo,... tudo perfeito e por isso se tornou um ícone da história. Não sei porque até os dias de hoje não fizeram um filme ou seriado. Katsuhiro Otomo Omedetou. Vale apena assistir? Com certeza. Nota: 10 Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/10/25 Full Review Read all reviews
