It is more expensive here than it is on Amazon where I ended up renting this. The storyline and overall production are good. I was often 'pulled out' of the film though when I got distracted by the cartoon-ie face of the main character; also the dialogue is often clearly geared towards a young teenage audience - as an adult you will struggle a little. Finally some of the fight sequences ignored physics - the CGI animation that replaced the actors was not as well as you would expect.

A 4.1/5 As a long time fan of the manga I was nervous of this adaptation, but I needn't have been worried as it's gloriously beautiful with fantastic action. A couple of times the uncanny valley rears its head and the story was trimmed in places but still a strong film that hopefully will get a sequel.

It wouldn't go into my top films to watch.A lot of it was things I'd seen before.It had an old fashioned style where bad guys were just bad guys,disposeable and lacked any depth.Some of the deaths should of been shocking but they just weren't because of the way they were presented. It was fun enough to watch because of the visuals and fight scenes but don't expect too much from it. It might be that I have been spoilt with modern TV series that more than compete with movies with more time to develope characters and have better moral compasses.
