——I am "This movie is very friendly to non-original fans, but will be scolded by the original fans of the pseudo-IP real Hollywood superhero future technology popcorn movie", the following are all spoiler dividing lines-I ran to see Before the premiere, I finished the 1995 original theatrical version in the library and on the train going home, and I deeply understood that the work of God is not changed by time or will. Just because I read the original book, my mood for the movie is complicated-in the process of watching the movie, it is 100% restored on the one hand [jumping] [shirtless] [optical camouflage] [airplane with wings] [bart of peasy eyes 】【War Chariot】【Break off the arm and tear off the car cover】and other battle scenes, I was moved to tears, but also to abandon the original dark philosophical core (human existence and its proof) and join Shao Zuo’s life experience, Asian mothers, The human villain boss is full of routines and regrets that he is speechless. Hollywood gave us the Scarlett Johansson version of Motoko Kusanagi, which almost perfectly restored the appearance, but added extra emotion to the character. Motoko in the animation is calm and resolute, but there are more feelings of confused and fragile people in the movie. Especially the evil technology company transforming humans to kill innocent humanoid weapons indiscriminately, awakening memories of old things and upholding justice is a bad street setting. It can be said that it completely deviates from the core values ​​of the original work, weakening and subverting the setting of the classic character [Puppet Master]. The most sb adaptation of the film (of course the director did the same to Snow White back then). You can harmonize Oshii Mamoru’s naked and evil tastes into an autumn coat, or you don’t need to restore Loli’s change of head and shame to play, but when you let Shao Zuo stand on the top of the building overlooking the city and be proud of the embarrassing sense of justice, This movie is completely reduced to [Ghost in the Shell], the inferior parallel world fan show of the god IP, which is pathetic and hateful. So, the correct viewing order is: the original after the movie, then you won't have the mood of me being so angry that you shoot your thighs straight.

2 stars for the screen and the widow sister.

Ghost in the Shell quotes

  • Batou: [Batou just got new eyes] Say something nice.

    Major: You chose those?

    Batou: They're tactical.

  • Major: Tell me who you are.

    Kuze: I am that which you seek to destroy. In this life, my name is Kuze.

    Major: What are you doing to me?

    Kuze: I have connected you to a network of my own creation. When I am finished in this world, my ghost can survive there and regenerate.

    Major: What do you want from me?

    Kuze: I became fascinated with you, reading your code while you were inside that geisha. Like nothing I had felt before and yet so... familiar. We are the same.

    Major: We are not the same. You kill innocent people.

    Kuze: "Innocent", is that what you call them? I am as they made me.

    Major: Who made you?

    Kuze: What have they told you? That you were the first? The first cerebral salvage? You were born of lessons took from my failure.

    Major: What are you talking about?

    Kuze: I was conscious while they dismembered my body and discarded me like garbage. I was lying on a table, listening to doctors talk about how my mind had not meshed with the shell that they had built, how Project 2571 had failed, and they had to move on to you.

    [removes a piece of Major's face]

    Kuze: What a beauty you are. They have improved us so much since they made me. They thought we would be a part of their evolution, but they have created us to evolve alone... beyond them.

    Major: "Evolution", that's what you call killing everyone who made you?

    Kuze: You're not listening to me.

    Major: You're a murderer.

    Kuze: They tried to kill me first. It is self-defense; defense of self! More will die until they tell me what they took!
