Commentaire:	AMAZING PIECE OF ART! Yes, I say art because it is a picture that is then painted. Granted that these pictures were rendered in 3-D then cell-shaded, then colored via photoshop style afterwards, what came out in the finished animation of the new CGI ANIME called APPLESEED (based of Masumune Shirow's manga of the same name) is simply breath taking. I must say, this is the BEST science fiction film I have seen in a long time. I think it will be a sleeper hit in the U.S. just like The Fith Element was. Appleseed, unlike it's counter part of Ghost in the Shell 2, is more about fun and action than intricate philosophy that nobody can understand, meanwhile maintaining a complex storyline without overwhelming the audience. Bioroids, humanoid synthetics, are popping up at a record rate. The problem is that they are so realistic nobody knows they are robots. When a synthetic virus threatens the bioroid population a cure must be sought. However, militant protestors and hate groups (backing a corrupt millitary) unify to impeed the protectors of the boiroid race from obtaining a cure. However, with over half of the planet Earth being bioroids, this new fear of genocide peaks in frenzy. When a rebell soldier fighting in the ruins on the outer fringe of the old crippled city makes a promissing draft choice , the New City Police take notice. She used to be one of them, and has what it takes to find the cure, and bring salvation against all odds. In a last minute rescue the New City Police snatch up Deunan, a sexy human woman who happens to be built like a tank. She is taken back to the city and debunked for her new mission: save half of the planet from extinction. Deunan is reunited with her cybornetic partner Briareos, whom she thought was dead. As it turns out, he is the one who specifically picked her for the mission. Soon the reunited heroes find out the key to onlocking the dark mysteries surounding this dissease, that key being Appleseed. Appleseed is the top secret genetic expirement that Deunan's mother was the creator of. However Dana and Briareos have to become a two person army to fend off the renogade millitary, a corrupt goverment, and evil scientists bent on genocide, in order to ensure that justice be done. This films is jointly made between U.S. companies and TBC (Tokyo Broadcasting Company). Music is co-written by Paul Okenfold, and performed by the Boom Boom Sattlelites, Paul Okenfold, and Basement Jaxx. This films soundtrack it heavy techno beats ya'all! Regaurdless to say, this has been one of the better 3-D animated adult films to date. It is truely a work of art, and entertaining to watch. I tip my hat to the filmakers on this one. The movie changes many of the original aspects of Appleseed. For those anime buffs and manga nerds like me, don't fret, the film does the series justice. The biggest changes focus around the main character, Deunan. Her background history is different in the film. She never was a rebell soldier in the manga series. Her hair is long in the Manga, but Masumune Shirow specifically redesigned Deunan for the new movie with a sexier build and sportier hairstyle; in turn giving her that modern woman look. There is also some dramatic speculation that creates tension and anxiety between Deunan and her cyborg partner Briareos that never existed in the original series. What is best maintained about Appleseed is the up-beat tone of the story, a powerful female lead, and giant honkin' mecha's! Mecha's dukin' it out with each other in blazing 3-D WOW! Who wouldn't want to see that?
