Appleseed (movie)
Overview
Nice story, post-humans and their rights compared to that of normal humans is a very interesting issue, because it could be be something that we have to deal with in real life in the future. Also the views of the characters of the matter are of great importance and really added to the movie. But what me really bothered was the animation, the whole movie is not drawn, but made with the computer. Although it has all sorts of layers to make it anime-styled, I really missed something. If I were to compare it with a live-action movie, it's like they hired actors that just suck. They looked like dolls. Dolls can, with the right choreography, make really good action moves and look awesome at fighting. But when there is a significant amount of talking and some drama, you definitely need more. I think the movie would've looked a lot better if they made everything with the PC, except for the characters.
Summary
The story concentrates on Deunan Knute, a soldier who fought in the Third World War. In the movie she comes to live in the city Olympos, where she joins ESWAT, a military organization that protects the city. In this city there live two species next to each other, normal humans and bioroids. Bioroids are genetically engineered and are just like humans. But they live shorter than humans and don't have reproduction capabilities. Although the city looks like a paradise at first sight, there are a lot of 'not-so-fitting-in-paradise' things going on that have to do with the question: What is the future of mankind? Because some see the boiroids as a threat to normal humans, while others think that the original humans themselves are the threat. And right in the middle of the city and in the middle of these opposite points of view is Appleseed, which has something that makes this question even more important. spoiler: Appleseed is capable of restoring the reproduction abilities and the longer lifespan of the bioroids!
