GHOST IN THE SHELL.

THERE HAS NOT BEEN SUCH EXCITEMENT REGARDING AN ANIME RELEASE IN THE UK THAT I CAN REMEMBER. THE HYPE SURROUNDING THE SIMULTANEOUS WORLDWIDE RELESE WAS SOMETHING ONE WOULD EXPECT FROM A HUGE BUDGET HOLLYWOOD PRODUCTION. HOWEVER, I WAS EVEN MORE DELIGHTED TO FIND IT WAS NOT ALL HYPE. THIS FUTURISTIC STORY OF THE GROWING POWER OF THE MAINFRAME (MACHINES IN GENERAL) PREDATED THE HOLLYWOOD BLOCKBUSTER MATRIX. THIS ORIGINALITY HAS TO BE APPRECIATED. THE USE OF CGI GRAPHICS IN THIS FILM WAS ALSO ASTOUNDING AND HAS BEEN USED MORE RECENTLY IN METROPOLIS (ANOTHER CLASSIC!). THE STORYLINE, ANIMATION AND ATTENTION TO DETAIL MAKE THIS ANIME A CLASSIC, ONE TO EVEN RIVAL AKIRA.
