Cowboy Bebop: The Lost Session

Before this new version of Netflix was released, this little promotional short film was made that is quite random, but interesting. It was made in the form of a grindhouse-style production, like an action film for exploitation cinema. Although it does not have a plot to follow, it is entertaining in its 2 minutes of duration. The production was done quite practically as an independent film and the sweeps make everything jump from one place to another. What does give it quite a bit of energy is the use of the theme song in the opening of the original anime. The Lost Session doesn't have much to salvage because it is only a small look at the Netflix series, but it was a rather curious way to attract the public's attention. My final rating for this short film is a 6/10.

I really enjoyed this series. Brought back a lot of memories of the anime - stayed true to its themes, plots and characters but at the same time brought it to life. Well done to all the actors and directors.

I have watched and rewatched this show over the years. And listened to the music. I think some purists are just over criticizing this show. When I watch something, I watch to see how well they have preserved the characters even if they have changed the dynamics. However, in this case I didn't look for the same characters of the anime, but how well it would work if they were real life characters. This is good to watch for the fans. People that may not know the story all that well may not really get the nuances, but the adapted stories work really work well for this.

Loved the Anime series, but I guess I am not one of those people that have to sit and compare anime to this live action. Watching this live action with no bias, just seeing it as a first timer of the lore was imply a great story with cool cinematic elements. The relationship with Spike and Jet is endearing and has a great comedic energy. Throw in Faye and its even more of an "Odd" ball trio. I love how they made the bebop as the fourth main character.

Great dialogue-back and forth, Enjoyable action. For the people calling in woke, I don't see it. Its just reflecting more modern times since the original was made a long time ago.

Overall a great fun stylistic show with great comedic moments and some badassery.

A very fun show have pretty good action and visuals The atmosphere is very pleasant and faithful to the anime The cast is not well picked in my opinion and here is why John sho as spike is good even if the anime character was not asian, he brings a good comedy touch though Spike was actually more naughty and dark with a deep melancholy Daniela pineda doesn't look or move like Faye but she does an incredible job besides she's gorgeous as hell.

Jet is a perfect cast.

Vicious is not a crazy mad man they got it so wrong he is very calm and composed.
