Title: Animation visuals are excellent, but...
Review: I think that Ghost in the Shell was simply over rated. I can see why people liked it, but I simply didn't. I found that the animation visuals were awsome, best I've ever seen, but I just found that the story was just slow and really boring. I read the comic that dark horse comics imported and I found it much better than the anime. I still think that Akira was the best anime movie ever made (followed by the Evangelion movies, but thats mostly because I'm a big Evangelion fan). So I guess if you're a visual arts student and are studying animation or whatever (my uncle did that and he bought this dvd as a "study")you'll find this movie great, but if you're looking for action, comedy, or fast moving animation, expect slow boat rides through a beautifully animated city and long talks about life or something. Still, this is a good anime. I'd give it 5 stars for the animation, but 3 for the overall story...so I'll give it a 4. Still really worth checking out though!
