In 2004, Oshii Shou's masterpiece is amazing.
The amount and breadth of cultural and image symbols absorbed, as well as the combination of things in production, make subsequent cyberpunk sci-fi movies sigh with admiration, whether it is cartoons or live-action movies.
If "In the Shell 1" is the question, then "In the Shell 2" is the answer.
The questions and answers are as ingenious as Yuxiu's questions and answers, which are logical and self-consistent, although the final answer is Oshii's own humanistic view.
I want to come back when I was filming "Attack in the Shell 2", the 53-year-old Mamoru Oshii had already made a name for himself. He didn't have to take into account the feelings of the market and the audience, but completely implanted his own thinking core in the film, just like Ridley Scott's. Alien: Covenant.
Although the intentions are different, in Attack in the Shell 2, Mamoru Oshii creatively combines "Blade Runner", "Total Recall", "Ghost Bride", "The Matrix", and even "Spirited Away", "Alien", "Biochemical" Crisis", "iROBOT", etc.
At the end of the film, Ito Junzi's ethereal "FOLLOW ME" lingered in the lingering voice,
Combined into Oshii's own Aranjuez Concerto.
