In my completely subjective opinion, it is a visual appealing, streamlined masterpiece of the original.Good job ncsoft u made bns to a second lineage 2 where 99% of the ppl use bots.įirst in treh start of gold there are only destroyer bots in arena i was fighting almoste 2h in a row just destro bots i had 1 normal player if u can call it normal While it doesn't alienate most of its viewers, it doesn't spoon feed plot, character motivation, or dialogue. It's a pure sci-fi movie down to its core. Overall, I have nothing but good things to say about Ghost in the Shell (2017). The few times I've felt this type of excitement towards action scenes were 1) The first time I saw the trailer for The 5th Element and 2) The first time I saw the trailer for The Matrix. The action scenes were breathtaking and exciting. This definitely had a more mainstream appeal to it. I'm not necessarily saying this is a bad thing, it's just different. The only comparison I will make to the original is that this 2017 counterpart is more streamlined compared to the nihilistic tone of the original. The only reservation I had about the film was the story line. His performance, body language, and overall presence was great to watch. The actor who stood out the most was Pilou Asbæk as Batou. The acting was ok, but I'm a little biased since I'm not too fond of Scarlet J.Beat Takishi was phenomenal (as always).

Every scene had a sense of wonder to it as there was always something to visually admire. The film looked gorgeous, and sounded awesome. It seemed that every singe ounce and aspect of production effects were used to their full potential.

All the elements of production seemed to synergize off of each other.

Never once did I get the feeling that the special effects were there to just be eye candy. It seemed as if the music and sound, the camera angles, the lighting and effects, the acting, etc, all served a purpose for the greater good of the movie. Within the first 5 minutes, I was immersed in the film's atmosphere. Moving on, I'm pleasantly surprised how good Ghost in the Shell 2017 is. Overall, the original was an excellent movie. Before I get into this review, let me start off by saying that I'm very familiar with the original Ghost in the Shell.
