Title: A little to distant for me even as an avid anime fan.
Review: I thought the premise of this sounded good. It turned out to be one of those things we regular folk just don't get. Now I love anime in most of its forms, except gratuituous mecha. I had hopes for this one as a good, sci-fi topic. It might have made an impression, had it been a bit longer. As it was, its hardly worth the money for a 25 minute runtime, when I was expecting a bit more of a movie.I've seen some excellent award winning, short animations, where the animation itself told a great story. I will admit there are a few parts like that in this film. Unfortunately, there are also time wasting, still shot moments, which should only be part of a longer piece. In the end, I was left with a lot of questions, and maybe that was the point of it all. I still hate it when the existential artists make something, and their patrons tell us we should all like it. If you like thought pieces OK, but I'd still advise renting this one first.
