Leave your thoughts about Ghost in the Shell.
| The TelegraphRobbie CollinThere are gripping chases and balletic combat scenes, painstakingly realised by Oshii’s animators, but the mood is mostly cold and melancholic, as Kusanagi broods over the fleshly implications of living in a world of data |
| Cinema em CenaPablo VillaçaO visual e a qualidade da animação são incríveis, e a história é bastante criativa. |
| The Movie SleuthMichelle KisnerGhost in the Shell is a masterpiece of transhumanism-themed science fiction and should be on the list of anyone who enjoys complex narratives as well as incredible action. |
| Film4Daniel EtheringtonThrilling, compelling, moving and visually splendid, this isn't just a classic anime, it's a great film. |
| Me gusta el cineSebastian Zavala KahnAn excellent science fiction story that has a lot to say about human nature. [Full review in Spanish] |
| Philadelphia InquirerCarrie RickeyFor a movie that’s so photo-realistic in its backgrounds and detailed in its character design, Ghost In The Shell is just as effective when it goes minimal, suggesting presence through absence. |
| Boston GlobeJay CarrTechnically, Ghost in the Shell is astonishing, not only for its smooth meld of cell animation and state-of-the-art computer animation, but also for its imaginative storytelling and mood-setting (thanks to an eerie, non-thumping score by Kenji Kawai). |
| EmpireClark CollisFrom its baddie-eviscerating opening sequence through innumerable car chases, shoot outs and tongue-in-cheek dialogue exchanges, this is exactly the kind of film that James Cameron would make if they ever let him through the Disney front gates. |
| Total FilmJosh WinningIt's that rare example of spectacle and substance meshing beautifully. |
| Vue Weekly (Edmonton, Alberta)Brian GibsonNot about haunting impermanence but hollowness and fluidity. Surveillance-camera and cyborg-eye shots make us feel like we're in an electronic casing, looking out. And both gender and the physical body are fluid and temporary shells. |
