Excellent remaster!!!

Reviewed in the United States on January 18, 2010

Verified Purchase

After watching the new remastered 2.0 version and have seen the original Ghost in the shell movie the only complaint is some of the CGI scenes being replaced by some of the anime.The video compared to the 2 disc remastered release has been very notiably cleaned up.The director also brought back the cast from the original movie to do the voice recordings and compared to the original sounds alot better also.The original actors are older now so the voice over being redone gave this remastering a more mature sound to the movie and if your a fan appreciate that the director used the same actors again to do the voice overs again.The sound has also been redone.If you have a nice Hi-Def TV and surround sound this movie sounds and looks excellent!!The director also remastered the original musical score with a higher sounding tone that sounds alot better than the original score.I had the original Manga release from sometime ago and picked up the 2 disc original rerelease of the movie when it came out on dvd.I still like the original presentation without the CGI but, being treated to a fully remastered version of the film was a visual and audio treat.What I did not like about the release of the Ghost in the shell 2.0 is this is a bare release with no special features at all and should have been released onto dvd much better by the publisher.If you have never seen this movie at all I recommend watch the original version of the film without the CGI then watch this version to fully appreciate the movie.What I hope what will happen and since Dreamworks got the ok to do a live action 3D version of Ghost in the shell is maybe the original version of the anime without the CGI can be remastered and a Box set release along with the live action release of the film can be done with both movies and special features included in the set would give this movie a well deserved release.Hopefully the end release of this movie will be the same way Blade Runner was done countless times on DVD.For now if you don't own either version of the movie get both of them watch the original first then the 2.0 remaster.This is a very well done movie ahead of its time!!!

The Ultimate Experience

Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2010

Ghost in the Shell is one of the finest works of the genre. A groundbreaking narrative about the nature of humanity and what it truly means to be alive. The story revolves around the emergence of a notorious cyber terrorist known only as "The Puppet Master," a terrorist with the ability to hack into the most highly-secured computer systems around the globe, as well as into people's cyber-augmented minds. Section 9--a group of highly trained Counter-Terrorism Operatives is tasked with bringing this individual to justice. The movie's protagonist, the fearless Major Motoko Kusanagi leads this operation and delves into her own inner termoil dealing with the nature of her own blurred past.

Video 5/5

OK, since I'm not too familiar with the technical jargon (plus I already used up all of my good SAT words on the intro) I'll just tell you this--it looks great! Compared to the scratchy, washed out DVD version, GitS 2.0 is vibrant colorful, and incredibly sharp.

Audio 5/5

Big explosions, loud cars, booming um...booms? It sounds great. The same care that was given to sharpening the video transfer went into the audio as well.

Extras...depends

The Anime purists out there will undoubtedly turn their collective noses up at the thought of their precious Ghost in the Shell undergoing an unnecessary facelift. However, with the advent of HD technology--a lot of the CG content that was added doesn't detract from the experience but makes the film seem more polished and just fits in better than the archaic computer generated effects that were present in the original. If you can overlook this, the wealth of new effects and content added makes GitS feel like a whole new movie.

I highly recommend picking this up if you're an Anime fan, or if you just want to show off your shiny new Blu Ray player to a room full of your envious friends.

I'm happy that a new generation of viewers may get the chance to see this groundbreaking Sci-Fi/Art movie with fresh eyes. And ears. I remember putting the film's audio on a cassette tape years ago so I could listen to it at work and in my car.. it was one of the first anime I remember that had a brilliant ambient score that drenched the film in a really eerie stoic mood. The remastered Skywalker sound soundtrack and effects track are a total joy to me, the music's dynamic range is captured better than ever, and a plethora of miscellaneous background effects flesh out the action better than ever.
In nearly every scene, the colors look deeper and more genuine than the original print.. there is alot more simulated depth of field, not only from newly inserted visuals, but just from some clever color and contrast tweaks.
And NO, I have no qualms with the added CGI elements. Mamoru Oshii approved all of them, and Oshii's ever reiterated themes in the series has always been disassociation, dehumanization and the philosophy of making dolls in human form... so for this viewer, having a few scenes where Major Kusanagi is re-visualized in an even more stylized and antiseptic digital shape doesn't bother me at all. It's the whole point of her character.

The cropping that appears in some shots bothered me a little, but I get the feeling this wasn't done because it looked good, but because there wasn't another way to fix or alter color timing in the frame without it.

The collector in me would also have preferred if the original cut of the film was included on a separate disc, but at the same time, as it's just a HD rip of the original film that I've seen a bazillion times anyway, it's not a deal breaker.

I'm happy with this version.

Pues la verdad es que no puedo valorarlo porque no es lo que recibí, sino Ghost in The Shell Innocence, la segunda parte.. Así que valga esta valoración para la segunda porque viene muy bien, con dedicatoria del autor incluida. Visto lo visto me la quedo, ya me haré con la primera en otra ocasión.
