Take the time to see this movie and take your time before rating it. Watch it for what it is, not what it is in comparison. Don't be entirely emotional about the way you view this movie. I do not believe this is the best adaption or sci-fi film I've seen, but it was enjoyable and much pain-staking work was put into it. I've given this an 8 out of 10 because I see 6 as mediocre and 10 as a perfect film. I promise you that if it HAD stayed completely with the script of the animated film, it would be getting attacked for being an unnecessary remake or overly complicated. Of course it isn't as fleshed out and philosophical as the original film (which paid an immaculate amount of attention to detail and information) but it DOES live in the same world and it DOES tell the same story. "The Last Airbender" - THAT is an example of something being destroyed.
Understand that the talents that put this film together adopted this baby from its original developers and they did NOT destroy it, as some over-exaggerators may proclaim. Please consider taking your time before giving it a low rating. As a film it stands strong in the Sci-Fi genre and does manage to still be thought-provoking. Seeing a 6.9 as the current user score (as of March 31st) is unfortunate, because this film captures EVERYTHING that Ghost in the Shell was and thanks to this film IS CURRENTLY. I appreciate the opinions of the people more than I appreciate the opinions of the paid critics. (Final Comments) I take user reviews to heart for movies. If you haven't already seen it, please take my word for it and go in with no expectations, go in cold (like it is a new experience). This is NOT the original film, this is its own film that you need to appreciate as it stands (I know that is difficult, believe me). If you spend your time comparing this film with the originals you will come up short, every time. READ: (For those who HAVE seen the original films) I'm sorry this film wasn't everything we dreamed it would be, but can we honestly act surprised when Hollywood screenwriters avoid immensely complex story arches? They have simplified this story for the masses in the same way The Lord of the Rings was simplified for the masses. Please take this into consideration and go to see the film with no expectations.
We all know that's nearly impossible to do these days. I won't lie to you and tell you this film is on par with something like The Matrix (the original was) but it is well worth seeing and stands out as unique. I expected the worst from the film and I received more. (Probably not) READ: (For those who HAVEN'T seen the original films) This film is a fantastic example of a film that is complex yet simple. I will do my best to make this short and sweet. Don't let this film be tarnished by that fad. We live in a society that assumes being overcritical means showing a display of intelligence.
