      Google is s The political-thriller feel of this film is a very interesting change of tone from the more laid-back feel of the OVAs. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 08/31/22 Full Review Audience Member Predicted a lot. The original English dud is excellent. Heady , psychological thriller. Doesnt dumb down the viewer. Watched this for the first time when I was 16. It is still strangely soothing in my 40's. Oshii seems to be content with shooting par for the course which is tough to do these days. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review david f A great anime about robots and government conspiracies. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review cees t Political drama instead of giant robots. Watch Ghost in the Shell instead as the DVD cover correctly implies is a better movie. Nice animation and exposure of violent Abrahamism though. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie is for people with studies and big people, I would not recommend ignorant children. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Simply one of the greatest movies ever made. Is has action, suspense, very intelligent dialogue, and treats it's audience like intelligent adults. Highly recommended Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
