The issue is whether technology, humanities, commerce and freedom can live in harmony.

Hanka company has high-tech electronic prosthesis technology, but the prosthesis only represents the machine, and the soul needs to be implanted, so they did 98 human transformation experiments, and finally got a brain and electronic prosthesis in the 99th transformation. The successful fusion of the body 's experimental body.

However, the subject still had occasional memories that were awakened during the process of continuously erasing his memory, and gradually contacted Subject No. 98 when the Public Security Section 9 cracked down on terrorists. In the process of constantly exploring the No. 98 experiment and thinking about the meaning of its own existence, the ultimate secret of Hanka's company was unearthed, which is a weapon to create a super artificial intelligence combination without human consciousness.

This film is extremely abstract and jumpy. I haven't seen the original and other classic versions, but it obviously feels that the cut is too simplified, and a lot of foreshadowing and narrative is lost in order to compress the film length to 100 minutes. Watching this movie is like watching some self-media commentary movies, only the key plots are told, and the fun of reading and contemplating resonance is lost.

That's the problem of the human part.

The virus has spread.

Ghost in the Shell quotes

  • 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.

  • Major: The Harbor. My parents. The way they died. Did that happen?

    Dr. Ouelet: No. We gave you false memories. Cutter wanted to motivate you to fight terrorists. I didn't approve. It was cruel, but my work, it was important, and... you were born. You were so beautiful.

    Major: Nothing I have is real.
