Critic Reviews
-
Jay Cocks, TIME Magazine
The movie, even at 124 minutes, has the densely packed sweep and go-for-it pep of a pop epic.
-
Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader
Grade-school violence freaks may find a few kicks here, but even they may have trouble coping with this ugly movie's ending about eight separate times.
-
, Variety
A lavish animation extravaganza produced at a cost of $8 million, this futuristic exploration is a followup by author-director Katsuhiro Otomo to his tremendously popular comic books.
-
Janet Maslin, New York Times
A phenomenal work of animation with all the hallmarks of an instant cult classic.
-
Michael Atkinson, Village Voice
Easily the most breathtaking and kinetic anime ever made.
