    Jin-Roh's beginning hits you like a ton of bricks, or an explosive, but it sort of trails off after a while. It's a good psychological suspense if you can sit still and watch it.

    Not bad. Kinda confusing.

    Whoa!! Was just plain blown away by this masterpiece of anime. Amazing story, well told. The 'Red Riding Hood' references are haunting and memorable. Best anime I've seen in a while.

    Not the best anime I've ever seen, but it beats the shit out of Pokemon.
  • November 18, 2006
    Why would anyone like this? Meolodramataically pointless and stupid.

    A really great movie. Slow paced at times, but really good!

    Epoca y estilo conjugan bien con el libreto logrando una historia paralela de esa época en el Japón post segunda guerra mundial...
