Casshern

The story :

The great 50 year war continues, as for the world is divided into two camps: Asian federal republic and European combination. On an end of a long fight, Asian federal republic wins control over the East Asian Eurasian continent. But the victory caused a great devastation of human nature. The actions of chemical weapons and germ weapons resulted in major chemical injuries and a large "radioactivity" virus. Doctor Higashi, whose wife is suffering from the "radioactivity" illness, creates a "new structure cell" theory … a theory that would create a new powerful human structure and a new life body. (Casshern ?)Though dismissed by the hygienic ministry, Higashi continues his research with the help from a troop of authorized personnel (who is utilizing the theory because of theirown selfish desire).

This film EXCELLENT!! It's an adaptation of a old manga : Gatchaman

looks awesome.. has anyone seen it yet?

ROUGH TRAILER TRANSLATION --

Today, I am pleased to announce to the whole world
... this is the New Cell.

They've made it this far already...?
I… was infected.
What is the rumor?
Although my friend was fighting too
Only I survived

(Medical talk) -- "It's over 10 million" ....
The New Cell is not yet regulated by the government…
What’s going on?
The army (is doing something or other...)
I wonder if (someone, pronoun unspecific) will/is fighting the wind person…
What did you do?!
Its use on you turned you into a New Human…

I will kill all human beings.
(heavy rock)

This is bad…
Hurry up!
I made one more before that…
I am not a human!
A thrown away life

Reincarnated with an invincible body
Fighting an iron devil
If Casshern does not do it… who will?

It is all filmed against blue backdrop, like Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow and Sin City. Casshern was filmed before them I think.

I have had it on dvd since it came out in Asia, and I bloody love it, one of my favourite science ficition movies for visuals/action. The ending is just amazing. Truly looks like a live action anime, wonderful.

Why was this moved when it's not an anime? it's an actual movie.

But based on a manga/anime, so it belongs here.

Btw, this film has been out for more than a year. People are just finding out about it now?

I knew about it since it was in pre-production.

A lot of countries don't get films from Japan for quite some time you know, for example it got released at cinemas here in England last month.

And a lot can't get hold of imports.

It's a great movie, I have it on DVD

i haven't seen it yet but i love the song that Utada sings on it

Yeah it's on the end credits. Good song. Hoping to get the soundtrack soon, the song is on it.
