Anyone seen this film? From what I can tell from reports at rotten
tomatoes and imdb, there seems to be a
general consensus amongst critics as to the film's superlative visuals with some critical of shallow characters and weak narrative.
-AH.
Follow Ups:
That pretty well sums it up.And yes, the characters do look like the old Astroboy characters. Very soft.
But I tell ya, the color saturation and dynamic movement are as good as the best anmation out there. It has a VERY unusual big band and jazz score too. It seems very much out of context with the sci-fi story, yet somehow, it works.
much. I'm a big Anime fan in general, but Metropolis didn't do it for me. The animation of people are too cartoonish and Walt-Disneyish. I prefer the more realistic rendition of people and more "edge" to the action. I realize Japanese teenager with 36D breasts and 2 meter long legs are not exactly "realistic," but whatareyougonnado?
