Boobirt Stylish but barely mediocre overall
AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks
Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good
Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
joaoamante Probably the most iconic animated movie ever. I dont particular like animated movies but this just is impossible to skip, the lightning, the setting, the hybrid story of the manga AKIRA is just super well done. The music is just out of this world, it represents the felling that you would experience if you were on the movie. Classic is just the word that comes to my mind, is a movie that should be passed from generations to generationsa. The songs just get stuck in yout mind. And if i ever get stuck on an apocalipse i will listen to the soundtrack(and some john murphy songs in 28 days later and and sunshine that are on my top ever movies)and enjoy every second of existence. This soundtrack is incredible.
cinephile-27690 The movie is visually entertaining but the story was not as interesting. I don't even remember the plot. It wasn't a movie I would see again but it was cool to see once. I found it online when Wal mart had it for $5 and I am glad I did not like it enough to pay $5 to keep it on my shelf. So, in short it is worth seeing once, but nothing more than that, if you ask me.
johnc-71334 AKIRA is an anime which is based on the 1982 manga by the same name it's written by katushiro otomo who also directed the anime the problem is that AKIRA doesn't cover all of the original comic which is kind of disappointing but the movie is still really good and highly recommend for those who never been into anime the art style is the best thing you'll see in the movie neo tokyo never looked so epic in 1988 for a movie since my neighbor totoro (never seen that movie yet or even spirted away and princess mononoke)the eng dub sucks tbh just watch it in japanese dub which i would highly recommend before watching it (i also have kaneda's jacket might put it up for display in my room) bike chase scenes have alot of mad max themes to it which is why i love this movie wish i could buy a bike that's like what shotaro kaneda rides that's much of the review i may edit it sometime
larvellishere Akira is a great film that balances gore, sci-fi action, horror and disturbing images. And thats all you need to know. And then there is neo tokyo the amazing city filled with life and all of the action. And Keneda (The main leader of a biker gang) has to take on something ( no spoilers ) but i cant say any more you have to watch it because it is amazing.
