Movie: Vexille

[Animeniax]

This is a Japanese movie about a future Japan that has been isolated from the rest of the world because they refuse to follow international laws governing advancements in robotics.

It came out in 2007 and has a similar CGI styling to the FF7 movies, but somehow it was easier to watch to me. The CGI isn't as advanced, resulting in a look that was more animated and less realistic. So instead of the near-yet-so-far-away animation of the FF7 movies, it was more like an advancement animation technique. Not sure if I explained that well.

Definitely worth a watch. It has mechs and battlesuits and a cool twist on ethics and the Japanese notions of technological advancement and superiority.

Sounds interesting. Will definitely watch this later.

I was rather bored throughout the whole movie I have to say.

I must say that, if you liked Appleseed you'll like Vexille. If not, don't bother watching.

I watched er, but I simply didn't enjoy it. Its a good watch, but I constantly compared er to the last Appleseed and quite frankly, she just didn't measure up.

Those 'Jags' were insanely awesome however. Best thing in movie.

I watched it in English dub, and I liked it a lot.

The ending was like 'wut!' though. I was surprised at Tokyo.
