Ghost in the Shell: 25th Anniversary Edition

Set in the year 2029 and following World Wars III and IV, a Japanese-led Asian block dominates world affairs. The alliance maintains its international supremacy through its elite security force whose cybernetically enhanced operatives tackle an array of hi-tech terrorists and other threats to international security. These augmented agents can "ghost hack" (i.e., download their consciousness) via the now omnipresent internet into other machines and human/machine cross breeds. Major Motoko Kusanagi, a cybernetically augmented female agent, has been tracking a virtual entity known as the Puppet Master with her crack squad of security agents. The shape-shifting Puppet Master, a rogue creation of a rival agency of the security apparatus, has concluded that it is a life form in its own right, "born in sea of information," and requested political asylum and true physical existence in defiance of its creators.

5.0 out of 5 stars Timeless Classic for all Sci-Fi fans
Reviewed in the United States on August 26, 2016

For an anime move made in 1995, Ghost in the Shell still holds up extremely well by today's standards. An excellent movie with an interesting plot and fabulous world atmosphere, it's no wonder this title led to so many further expansions of the franchise.

For anyone who wants to delve into a cyber-future version of our world, after two additional World Wars have occurred beyond WW2, and where cyberization of humans with machines and the net is commonplace, GITS is your go-to title. It's actually quite impressive that even in 2016, many of the ideas from a 1995 movie are still only hypothetical or conceptual, but still so close to reality.

The movie is worth a watch by anyone who considers themselves a sci-fi, cyberpunk, alternate reality, or tech-world fan. Additionally, while the movie is completely stand alone, it does open the gateway to other GITS material, such as the Stand Alone Complex and 2nd Gig animated series, as well as ARISE. Many of those surpass this movie in quality and delivery, but for a 1995 film you have to give this film its due. For those not interested in such things, or find complicated plots boring or hard to follow, this might not be your cup of tea. Also factor in that the movie doesn't promote sexual content, but it does have some female nudity, so keep that in mind.

Lastly, GITS is not your typical anime. It is far more realistic and tame than some of the outlandish, whimsical, or ridiculous things you see in most Anime today. Treat this more as an animated film.

4.0 out of 5 stars A die-hard fan's dilemma...
Reviewed in the United States on September 25, 2014
Verified Purchase
Like many other anime/cyberpunk/action-epic/virtual-existential fans, I consider the original GHOST IN THE SHELL film to be the zenith. Of course it stands on the shoulders of other cyberpunk novel and film apogees, but as an aggregate of the genre, GITS changed everything. But this release has a few issues for me~

First off: 25th anniversary? I may be wrong, but I recall the film coming out in 1995. So that leads me to think they are celebrating the anniversary of the manga -by Shirow Masamune- release back in 1989. If we are going to celebrate the concept's initiation, then why not have more manga-related content in the blu ray's special features or in the booklet within the blu ray's case? Why not a few sample pages of the original artwork?

Another issue: subtitles. Like a few others, I noticed some slight issues regarding gender at times. I will point out, it's in regards to hacker characters, who later on we learn that the section 9 and section 6 team-members never really know the exact gender of the hackers and give them 'male' code-names (although this issue was with calling a male a female). But this is just my desperate attempt to find an excuse to keep this poorly managed release. There are some spots where the subtitles are updated from previous GITS releases (i.e. - the gun used by Togusa), but to still have a few mistakes can bother fans who've seen the film enough they could recite the entire dialogue (and probably will, don't tempt them! Your sanity has been warned...)

Some positive: the graphic transfer is brilliant. Many scenes stand out so well due to their enhancement. Which seems impossible, considering when the film was released, it already looked decades ahead of its time. I'm so glad to see the effort the producer's put in to give the visuals the credit they deserve.

Music: Kenji Kawai's score still sounds brilliant, and the Eng. dub carries the Brian Eno/U2 ending (which I always preferred, considering the Japanese ending is just the opening played again. A slight industrial change was welcomed, in my opinion!)

...but what am I do to with this release? Should I Keep it? Stop others from buying it? Ignore the slight errors and celebrate this masterpiece's birth? I already have the film on multiple formats, but the visual quality here is breath-taking. Could I play the previous DVDs audio remotely while viewing the current blu ray production? Would I have become a byproduct of the GITS universe at that point to be so wired and virtual just to view one picture, albeit, the most stellar picture in my geeky heart??? The most we can do is write reviews. Inform the producers of what they truly excelled at (picture quality! Seeing the puppet master on the cover was a nice change, too!) and what they could of improved on (subtitle issues of course, and maybe just a bit more special features, considering it's the anniversary).

5.0 out of 5 stars I'd like to say this review is totally biased as this ...
Reviewed in the United States on November 3, 2014
Verified Purchase
First off, I'd like to say this review is totally biased as this is one of my favorite films of all time, and my favorite anime film of all time.

Second, I've noticed a number of 1 star and 2 star reviews for the flaws in this release, and I have to say, they are really not that bad. There are some audio issues that are there that don't really harm the film aside from a short little bit where the audio drops in volume which I find a tad baffling. I cannot attest to the quality of the subtitles, but the Dub is just good enough that I prefer to watch it over watching the filmed Subbed. However, judging from the reviews, if you're primarily a Sub watcher, this may be a deal breaker for you. Personally, I love the dub and the only thing that irritated me is the short moment where the audio volume dropped.

Is it the perfect transfer we've been waiting for? No. Is it finally a proper version of a classic on Blu-Ray? Yes it is. And it looks amazing. I'm still giving this five stars in spite of the flaws because, by gum, that animation deserves to go off the limit of the scale, the flaws bringing it back down to five. Even on DVD it looked amazing, and here it's simply breathtaking.

Especially with the price drop to $15, I would give this a full a recommendation. I spent the full $25 to preorder this and do not regret it at all.

I have to say that I don't get all the criticism directed at this release. If you are just a casual fan that watches movies in English, you will have no need for subtitles and therefore no problem with this 25th anniversary edition Blu-ray. The video quality is superb. The sound is fine. Everything I remember from all those years ago, only better, much higher quality. This goes for the English language version.

Now if you are using this to learn Japanese, then I will defer to the experts. I'm not learning Japanese. I don't care to watch it in its original language. I just like the movie, the artwork, and I'll take mine in English, thank you very much.
