Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
J Melvyn This movie contains three excellent stories that are unrelated to each other, all stories are in their own universe. The three pieces have a great artwork and a very fluid movement of characters and their surroundings.The first story is very dramatical and has a lot of suspense. The second is more active, funny and ironic. (My favorite). The third one has a very unique design of characters and artwork, has message to the viewer.Depending on which type of movie you like may vary which story is the best for you but all of them are great piece of artwork.
Jose Cruz I found this flick to be quite interesting visual show. Though the characters weren't developed and the stories followed the traditional clichés of film. For instance, the first part, which was the highest quality one in terms of animation, looks good but the story has been told a thousand times before, though it has some interesting twists. The other two films are shorter and contain less plot and characterization.Not that this is a bad film, quite to the contrary, I am very rigorous in my ratings: 6/10 is for a very good film, 7/10 is for an excellent film, 8/10 is for a great film, 9/10 is for a masterpiece and 10/10, well, that's reserved for the REAL STUFF.I am still searching for a non-Ghibli anime films that can even approach the level of quality achieved by Miyazaki and Co., but it appears that they are simply on another level of quality.
spamspaz-1 I am a guy that rents Anime from my local video store and not much makes it through even though I live in a part of the Greater Torono Area that has a large Asian population. I find that the stuff that I find is either really good or really bad, and this film is some of the best I have seen. Each story has emotion, power, and overall, the power to be remembered years later. I think I saw this two or three years ago and I can still vividly remember the imagery and stories. My personal favourite story was Magnetic Rose because of its look into paranoia and the mind. I think it was also a wise choice to put Stink Bomb in the middle because it is the humorous one. And artistically, Cannon Fodder takes the cake. A great find for artistic types and anime-lovers alike. See this movie now!
LARSONRD Amazing anime trilogy from AKIRA's Katsuhiro Otomo, who presents three unrelated sci fi stories directed by different directors (he did the last one, writers/first-time directors Tensai Okamura and Koji Morimoto did the other two). They are amazing vignettes with some stupendous animation in three different styles. Otomo's is especially unique in that there are no cuts – the "camera" moves fluidly through every scene without a jump or a stop. Morimoto's 40-min "Magnetic Rose" is stunningly animated, the most amazing of the two, telling of a space ship's investigation of a distress signal discovering a magnificent world created by a woman's memories – the music takes advantage of the operatic aria, Madame Butterfly, arranged by Yoko Kanno, who also supplies an excellent original score. "Stink Bomb," the middle segment, is clever and funny and fast-paced; Otomo's anti-war statement in "Cannon Fodder" closes out the film with a subtle bit of thought-provocation about a city whose entire purpose is the firing of cannons at an unknown enemy.
