Review title: Not as good as I'd hoped
Product review: I was a huge fan of Ghost in the Shell. That film, along with Cowboy Bebop, was what got me into anime.So imagine my disappointment with Oshii's Sky Crawlers. I wasn't expecting a movie all about air combat, as implied by the title and the excellent opening shootout, but I was expecting something that would hold my attention like a pair of meathooks. What followed was an interesting, but slow-paced and ultimately boring film with a fairly predictable conclusion. If it could be called that.Oshii's Ghost in the Shell was an intelligent balance of style and substance, action and thought-provoking dialogue. It was one of those movies that stayed with you, gave you something to think about.The Sky Crawlers attempts to create this same feeling, but I don't feel like it quite made the cut.
