Tom Hughes Guardian Veering between gleaming, clean-lined techno-lust and a punkier, junk-space aesthetic, it really is a marvel to look at: an artfully dazzling distillation of videogamey flash, proggy space-majesty and Final Fantasy flounce. Rated: 3/5 Apr 23, 2015 Full Review Tom Huddleston Time Out This digitally animated Japanese space adventure is as po-faced as they come. Rated: 2/5 Apr 20, 2015 Full Review Allan Hunter Daily Express (UK) The spectacular visuals and fights are the real stars. Rated: 3/5 Apr 24, 2015 Full Review Simon Foster Screen-Space The dazzling visuals and immense scale employed by director/animator Shinji Aramaki adequately compensate (just) for the derivative narrative in his update/reboot of Leiji Matsumoto's visionary 1970's space-opera, 'Harlock'.

Loïs O Ce n'est pas un mauvais film mais il ressemble à des cinématiques de jeux vidéo. De plus le film est relativement lent Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 12/21/24 Full Review Audience Member Eu gostaria de dizer que achei muito meh Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member A real disgrace, Japanese writers forgot how to build a decent story several years ago and their animation is to the point of death. This is an insult to all what Original harlock really was. Not this sad piece of rubbish for sure. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member An absolutely brilliant movie,very surprised and very pleased we found it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member A personal favourite between me and my brother, one of the edgier CGI films i've seen, with an almost grim dark setting with anime inspired locations. If nothing else, come for the visuals and stay for the fights, because as far as these types of films go this is certainly amongst the most visually stunning, action packed and morally riveting. Provided you don't look too hard at the pot-hole story, I would certainly recommend for the battle and music alone. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review gianmarco R a great animated film with spectacular graphics and animations, the story is very beautiful and the battles are fantastic Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 07/11/19 Full Review Read all reviews
