Diagonaldi Very well executed

Inclubabu Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Abegail Noëlle While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

riteshk-71503 Frankly I must admit that I'm not a big anime fan and this was my first anime. But to my sweet surprise this is a very good and entertaining. This has everything that you can expect in a racing related movie. I was more astonished to find out that it took them 7 years and more than 100000 hand drawn pictures to complete this movie which only increased my appreciation for the movie.

Orbital_Frame 7 years to create this masterpiece? Yes, you can see it in every frame in Redline. So much love in the details, characters and art.The movie is not only about the races and vehicles. We also get a insight of the daily life of the creatures and how the main character JP enjoys his time before the next race in the huge Cyberpunk world of Redline.The races are of course the best part in this movie. The vehicles have insane weapons, transformations and boosts. It's mind blowing when JP or the other racers use their boosts because you can see special tracking shots from inside the vehicles and how the racer reacts to the unbelievable speed of his own car.I also love that they don't use 3d objects in this movie and when they do, you won't even recognize them.I really enjoyed Redline because you can see the love they've put in every frame in the 7 years until the movie was finished.Watch this movie when you just want to sit down a have some fun with awesome animations, sound and characters and of course their incredible vehicles.

Rectangular_businessman I liked "Redline". It is a highly entertaining movie with an incredible visual style (Which looks reminiscent of one of the shorts included in the movie "Animatrix", called "World Record". After all, both this movie and that short were done by the same director, Takeshi Koike) Even when the plot from this animated film seems like something that could expect from a B-Movie (Or a Capcom video game, for that matter) at least this is very funny to watch, and it doesn't take itself too seriously.The stylish character's designs and the excellent animation from this film, combined with a funny storyline and likable character made this film a highly enjoyable experience. It's like seeing an "extreme", crazy version of the "Wacky Races" that keep all the fun of that cartoon series.8/10

wandereramor Redline is one of those movies that is absolutely popping with adolescent joy, from the sleekly-animated racing sequences to the ridiculous bravado of the characters. It's a bold debut for director Takeshi Koike, and what really amazes is that it manages to be an epic story that at the same time seems to be only a sliver of a crazy and exciting universe. You get the feeling that any of the other racers, some of whom only get a sliver of screen time, could easily support their own movie, and that kind of overflowing exuberance is hard not to buy into. The only other media that comes to mind as capturing this sensation is the anime series Giant Robo, which seems like a clear precedent here.Plot-wise, there isn't much going on, with the story a serviceable vehicle to get from one action sequence to another. It does, however, manage to use common tropes in a way that feels mythic and not derivative. Redline really only does one thing -- epic action -- and those looking for anything else will probably be disappointed. But man, does it succeed on that front.This review would be incomplete without mentioning the amazing music, an eclectic group of tunes that completes the adrenaline rush. Hell, every character gets their own theme song. How cool is that? (My favourite is Machine Head's.) And, in the end, that's what Redline ultimately wants to leave you thinking: "How cool is that?"
