Her body is a weapon. Her mind is a mystery.
War is He//:
Set in a futuristic Japan after the end of a brutal world war, science has advanced by leaps and bounds giving humanity the choice to prolong life and reduce suffering with the use of sophisticated cybernetics. With all of humanity linked into one system of minds and personalities known as ghosts, the biggest threat to civilization is the cyber terrorists capable of hijacking people’s bodies and memories.
When a ghost-infecting virus known as Fire-Starter begins spreading through the system resulting in the assassination of the Japanese Prime Minister, Major Motoko Kusanagi and her elite team of special operatives are called in to track down its source. As they delve deeper and deeper into their investigation, they uncover traces of government corruption and a shadowy broker that bears an all-too-familiar face.
When your target can be anywhere and look like anyone, the only choice you have is to trust your ghost, and hope you aren’t infected too.

This is a deviation of the typical GitS movie where you get a standalone story that usually struggles with some aspect of humanity as it applies to robotics. Which is good I think because you can't really struggle with the same questions over an over again. As far as it goes this seems like more of a evolution of the Stand Alone Complex (SAC) story telling rather than being something that resembles the past movies. If you liked SAC you'll also like this as well.
It's a little saddening that they seemingly rewrite history in some regards, It seems like they could've done a bit better job with coherency (as there wasn't that much to write around).
This franchise is more complex than most anime out there but it is worth the extra attention. Those who like the old series may find fault but for me the film is a great add on.
I'm writing this assuming that you've already watched everything Ghost in the Shell. If you haven't, what are you doing with your life? I think it's time to reassess.
I wish they'd said in the description that this movie isn't part of the original series, it follows the ARISE series. Now I'll have to go back and watch that so I can understand what all the changes were.
While we're on the subject, can we please stop with these reimaginings of classic series? If you want to do something new you don't get there by taking a classic series and taking an eggbeater to it. If you have a good idea, people will like it and if you have a bad idea, associating it with something better won't save it, it just pisses people off. I don't care if the original author wrote it or not.
Having watched this movie I have to say that it didn't stand out in any particular way but I have to admit I was spending a lot of time trying to figure out what was going on and why everyone looked and sounded different. This wasn't helped by the former lead English actress (or should I say actor?) being assigned to another character entirely.
Our heroine (hero?) spends most of this movie in a suit of bright red motorcycle leathers. These are amazing in that they never make a single sound throughout the whole film despite the occasional acrobatics.
Our leading lady from the original series never rode a motorcycle although I'm sure she knew how to.
Our leading lady in the ARISE series would have gotten her ass kicked if she went against her counterpart in the original series. She doesn't seem to be as on top of things as her older counterpart. Maybe that's just age but... no it's not it's the writing. I really don't think this character could develop into the older character. Why would they reimagine the series with a worse lead, and in a counter espionage unit?
The ARISE series does differentiate itself by losing the sexiness of everything that came before it. I'm not sure why this is but it is a noticeable difference in the series.
I should also mention that this is the lamest movie title I've seen for anything anime.

Ce serait comme vendre un livre en chinois sans le préciser! Merci amazon!
DVDの再生や字幕が気になりましたが、PS3で日本語音声・字幕OFFで観る事が出来ました。
(PS3のバージョンによるかも知れませんが)
CMも無かったです。
65インチの有機ELで観ても十分な解像度なので、普通に本編のストーリーやアクションだけ楽しむならこれで十分。
