Liam D @Mediawatcher2003 09/20/2024 Breathtaking animation and great voice acting cannot hide how decent but derivative the script is See more 12/31/2012 Amazing animation, story, and soundtrack! See more 12/24/2012 Täitsa decent anime. See more 11/08/2012 "Saito. Halt." Iv'e this for a good 2 years without watching it, don't know why i just sort of left it there on my shelf. But today i decided i may as well give it a watch and relatively enjoyable if a bit flat and lifeless in the story and animation at times. 'Vexille' is another animated film to come from Japan that uses CGI. Unlike 'Final Fantasy: Spirits Within' however, its a bit hit and miss. It's been called fantastically animated and styled by some but i just don't see it. The characters look dead inside a glossy doll like expression on their face most of the time. Ok, when things are happening and it's in motion and emotion is displayed it looks good but it doesn't hold it all the way through (which is not possible is it?.) The plot is the same occasionally interesting but then it plays it out too long and it's replaced by disappointment - and talk about anti-climactic endings. I won't describe all the pre-information describing the plot because you get a fair amount of it thrown at you at the beginning. Basically its about 'Japan' separated from the rest of the world and USA ain't happy with that so they send in a team to investigate what's happening. That's as basic as i can describe its simple but there are other nuances - like robots, bio metals and somethings called 'Jags'. But there isn't much to it, the focus does change slightly and the original plot disappears completely. The action is fairly well staged so even when the plot isn't there you kept vaguely interested. Yet another CGI animated anime film to come out of Japan, with mixed results. The animation is a tad odd to look at and the plot is hit and miss. However, the action set-pieces are well staged and the voice acting is pretty good. Those into anime will like it but for everyone else - like it's plot - would be hit and miss. See more 10/11/2012 Really good cyber-futuristic anime. The story is politically-ethically dense and the animation offers fantastic action scenes. High quality ideas and GITS-like structures makes this move technically enjoyable but not one of the milestones of the genre. See more 10/11/2012 Really good cyber-futuristic anime.
