Genocidal Organ

I don't enjoy anime particularly, but to be honest, it's not the kind of movie with silly, female figure abusing, exaggerated emotions, and gratuitous violence script. The story may seem a little complicated and disgusting, but sincerely, the plot involves heavy criticism to the consumer society, our selfish reactions between each other and specially the urge of the humankind to develop strata of power and the means we are willing to take to keep it.

Under appreciated with "ghost in the shell" vibes.

The movie is a visual masterpiece which explores very heavy themes such as geopolitics, freedom and identity. Great character development and perfectly paced.

The movie is violent, maybe even grote-ish, but the advanced militarism and tactical realism was why attracted me without knowing any more context. Specifically I saw the drop-scene with disintegrating pods. Total sci fi.

Reading the reviews and seeing the score here I thought it would be all action, no substance. But boy was I wrong.

I really enjoyed this movie and was totally surprised. I was expecting raw violence with a decent storyline and zero depth. Instead it had miles of it. Technology is so advanced, it can't just be made up. There was serious thought put into every aspect of this movie.

But beware, looks can be deceiving. I think a lot of the bad credit could be attributed to the trailer giving the impression of something like "the expendables", and thus attracting that audience.

Soldier John Paul is been hunted down by the the american army who claim that John has done Genocide and he is infiltrating a Czech republic town. So they have been given orders to bring him in alive but John knows more than they think.

Even though I feel this movie has way too much propaganda. It was still watch able and it was nice seeing an anime movie which is set outside of Japan.

Story wise it was good.

Animation and art style brilliant as usual.

Audio wise good I watched the Funimation dub.

Overall not a bad movie.

This movie could be a 20 minutes short, but instead they made an almost 2 hour long snore fest.

I like animes, but this is baaaad. Plot is bad, conversation is bad and the ending is very poorly written.

I really cant imagine Who might enjoy this, unless you have a very bad insomnia issue, in this case, you will love it!

So in a nutshell, this is a huge waste of your time. Just see at youtube the invasion scene, its 4 minutes long and its AWESOME, its everything an anime cyberpunk fan would like to see in a futuristic distopian movie.

Thats it folks, save yourself some time and go do something more useful like slepping.

Beautiful animation, good plot, nice characters, but a lack of pace, especially in the second half. I wish the movie was 20mn shorter.
