      Ghost in the Shell: Is it your young master? No, it's your young master

      Today, when original films are becoming more and more rare, there is a key issue that we always need to keep in mind: what is a good adapted film, and what exactly will bring a good adapted film.
      A good film adaptation should be done in three aspects: the picture, the spirit, and the...

      Good movie, just average

      In 2021, I finally finished watching this American version of "Ghost in the Shell" and I can only say that the changes are really average. When I first saw the first half, I was quite relieved because the anime version was restored to a certain extent. For example, jumping off the building,...

      Talking about her daughter's Ash at the Avalon apartment...don't take this tribute too seriously. It's basically an Origin story reconstructed from the animation elements of Oshii's first two theaters.

      Can't say it's a bad movie, but it's also... Too lazy. The good-looking pictures are basically copied from the theatrical version, and the stories are so old-fashioned that they almost fall asleep. Cyberpunk is not as bold as PKD's imagination half a century ago, and the empty cry of "human nature is greater than machine" can only show how exhausted Hollywood's inspiration is.

    Ghost in the Shell quotes

    • Cutter: Will it work?

      Dr. Ouelet: Absolutely. She's a miracle. A machine can't lead, it can only follow orders. A machine can't imagine or care or intuit. But as a human mind in a cybernetic frame, Mira can do all those things, and more.

      Cutter: The first of her kind. She will join Section 9 as soon as she is operational.

      Dr. Ouelet: Please, don't do that. You're reducing a complex human to a machine.

      Cutter: I don't think of her as a machine. She's a weapon. And the future of my company.

    • Dr. Ouelet: Do any of the glitches mean something to you?

      Major: No. They don't.

      Dr. Ouelet: You've been inside the same shell as he has. That could have... very serious consequences. You were not authorized to Deep Dive the geisha.

      Major: You're disappointed.

      Dr. Ouelet: No, I'm worried. You're not invulnerable. I can repair your body, but I can't protect your mind.

      Major: Why not? You can see all my thoughts, so... you should be able to secure them.

      Dr. Ouelet: Try and understand your importance, Mira. You're what everyone will become one day.

      Major: You don't know how alone that makes me feel.
