The characters are dead on arrival and the techno soundtrack during the action sequences made us want to flee their funeral.

One of the most visually distinct and invigorating works of Japanese animation of its era.

Alternate Ending

It never lets up, but it's too creative and varied to ever feel exhausting.

Many may find it too hyper for its own good but "Redline" is fun from start to finish, a collection of wicked sight-gags wrapped around a 'rah-rah' feeling of righteousness.

Some of the plot threads can drag a bit, but when this movie cranks it up, it really rips. The ending is sublime.

To be honest, if you watch this, it won't be for the story. While the story is fine and the characters are written well, the story isn't incredibly strong. Though, its real strong point and why I am giving it 5 stars is in its animation. Every frame of animation not only has incredible detail, but has heart and soul put into it. Every shot shows they put heart into how every character, even the minor ones shown on screen for a single frame, should look and act. Really, the details in this movie were done to perfection. Coming from someone who generally doesn't like racing movies, I highly reccomend Redline.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

A stunning visual masterpiece with an amazing, funky soundtrack. It's a fun, exciting, original plot that entertains all the way through with continuous action and has a great love story too! As a keen Animé fan I would highly recommend this film to Animé-heads and non-animé lovers alike. One of my all time favourite animé movies.
