Ghost in the Shell
Execellent animation. Storyline a bit too on the cerebral side...sort of cliche with all the net/wired plotlines coming out these days.

Ghost in the Shell
This movie has very good animation and a complex plot with it. A little too short though.

Ghost in the Shell
Take an incredible comic and slice it up until it is a 90 minute cartoon and you have GiTS. Would have loved to have seen it as an OAV series

Ghost in the Shell
Ghost In The Shell is yet another head-trip from Masamune Shirow.(although I personally believe Orion to be his weirdest(and funniest)work) One of the flicks that really got the general American public going on anime. Animation is good, and nice use of CGI(screw those funky Matrix interfaces, we'll go with UNIX and terminal imputs! ;)) for the computers also is interesting. Story is not nearly as rich(or as confusing) as the manga, that doesn't spoil it for the average consumer. To those who hate the ending: if it bothered you, the manga ending will make your head spin. :P

Ghost in the Shell
Nice animation and an interesting story. Interesting doesn not necessarily mean exciting. A good rental, but not something you're going to want to watch more than once or twice.

Ghost in the Shell
Amazing animation! This is a very intelligent movie and you have
to really watch it to understand it. It is complex, but it was
too short. Only being 82 minutes, it is quite short for a movie.

Ghost in the Shell
The weapon design is perfect. They run out of bullets, pull the cock of the guns before firing, they even play everything by the SAS book. It is perfect. The 'borgs are perfect, so are the mecha. Batou is the only one that really looks differente from the manga(he's blonde here and in the manga his brown haired) Need I say more?

Ghost in the Shell
Great concept that would have been even better if they had elaborated on it some more. 82 minutes is just way to short, but the animation is excellent, as is the story line and over all concept. A classic all the way.

Ghost in the Shell
Very good! I can understand why some people could not like it, but I did. Great animation and character/mecha designs. Good story, although it could have been more inspired. Some parts kinda reminded me of a good old samourai story, mixed with a good deal of cyperpunk stuff.

Ghost in the Shell
Excellent. Great animation. Great story. Excellent treatment of the future
of computer interfaces, cyber-implants, and artificial intelligence. This
really is a cyberpunk movie.

It definately is too short. If you read the manga (which is excellent BTW),
there are a bunch of sub-plots before the big event with the Puppeteer.

Now a Sony Plastation game.

Ghost in the Shell
The animation's state of the art. Another one of Shirow's feelings about humankind, this anime analyzes it in a more mature fashion. Although labeled an action picture, it plays more like a drama. The story is told very well, but the manga was more enjoyable.

Ghost in the Shell
I think this movie is almost perfect and sets a new standard for animation as well as sci-fi in general.

I particularly like the fact that this ANIMATION has a more realistic look and feel than most LIVE ACTION features (check out the making of "Ghost In the Shell" to see all the reference used).

Mamoru Oshii is one of the best directors out there (Patlabor movies) and yes his movies tend to have many slow panoramic shots, but if you pay close attention during these slow scenes you'll notice that they're there for a reason and not to waste time. That is another thing about the appeal of "GITS"... all the symbolism and messages placed throughout show us how society and the individual cope with the ever increasing complexity of our technologically dependent lives as well as the questions it raises.

Dismal/Disney should send out apologies to EVERYBODY for forcing their crap onto our society, warping the minds of the young instead of evolving their animation to the level of "GITS".

Ghost in the Shell
This is my favorite anime. For one thing, the animation was the best I have ever seen. Especially the flashback scene, with all of the reflections on the puddles, and the automobile lights shining through the rain. Absolutely beautiful artwork.

The storyline is very complicated, and one might not understand it the first time through. I advise watching it multiple times.
