REVIEW;
Visually stunning , This film starts off quite quickly . The Backstory of the Lead character is given out though the movie and plays off nicely towards the end of the film . Though I feel that the reality of this movie may not catch with a lot of the movie goers and might turn off a few more as well but if this type of film is your cup of tea , it becomes a fun ride
The fans of the Anime version may have mixed opinions of this movie ( Having watched the maga shows myself ) , and despite a few things being missing the film stays pretty true to the Maga version . It,s a good ” jump in ” for people who never seen the Japanese cartoon ( anime ) in it,s original form . The only issue the casual fan may have with the movie is ( Haven,t I seen this before ? )
The answer would be yes; Robocop ( 1987 ) directed by Paul Verhoeven , is a Better character driven film than (Ghost ) but ghost does a ok job at ” fleshing out ” their characters and this plays out towards the 3rd act of this movie .
OVERALL
a 4 out of 5 stars
( A must see in 3D to enjoy it fully )
