Emilie Black Cinema Crazed Although the film is bubbly and full of happy colors, the subject is much darker and approached in a successful manner. It's Anime for the adult brain. Rated: 4.5/5 Apr 19, 2020 Full Review Panos Kotzathanasis Asian Movie Pulse Arias and Nakamura direct an extremely intricate story in a complex environment, with constant plot twists, very interesting characters, and many social and political messages. However, their direction does not succeed in portraying all this intricacy Apr 6, 2019 Full Review Rachel Wagner Rotoscopers It's bold, disturbing, and makes you think. The ending was a bit disappointing but still good film. Rated: 3/5 Feb 6, 2019 Full Review Meghan Sullivan IGN Movies Harmony prefers to stay behind the lecture podium, asking the audience to draw its own conclusions about free will but handing it too many notes to sift through. Rated: 5.5/10 May 19, 2016 Full Review Read all reviews

Alessandro A Some very intersting ideas, also animation and graphics was good, but the way the stroy is told is boring. There are a lot of things that are left unsaid and some loopholes too. What the hell was the main charachter doing in a war area? The rythm is slow. It could have been so much better with some quality writing. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 07/07/23 Full Review Audience Member Harmony is the kind of movie that puts a lot on your plate, from political views and what it means to be human and to have free will all the way to deal with personal issues and trauma in both the main character and the main antagonist. It requires a lot of patience and can be boring for some it's still a brilliant concept and it did a wonderful job at story telling. It personally left me thinking about it for hours after it was over. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review peter m This movie is beautiful to watch. While the story is simple the underlying philosophy is not and the story flows well. This movie is mainly dialog and philosophy with only a few action scenes. The plot keeps you guessing and it attempt to subvert most common tropes, leaving you wondering who the good and bad guys are. I found the ending disappointing. While it had a great twist, it felt unsatisfying, however I notice the other ITOH movies are similar. I suspect the attempt is to subvert our common expectation of an ending, which it does well, but leaves us with an unsatisfying feeling. While not a classic, such as Ghost in the Shell, its well worth a watch. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Absolute desaster! No rhythm, a pseudo-philosophical scenario full of inconsistencies and bullshit. What a waste of time! About consciousness, better to read a book by Damasio! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member The animation felt jumbled as it kept awkwardly switching from 2-D to 3-D animation. The story was good but the animation let it down. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member It would be great if it was actually playing where it said it was going to show. No one in my area is showing it--even the SIFF that's aren't showing it. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Read all reviews
