Enjoyable live action manga that has the obligatory enormous robots, crew of world weary, wise-cracking characters and bizarre japanese spiritualism. Great fun for manga fans, utterly incomprehensible to all others, this also has some great model effects and nicely faithful production design. The only drawbacks are the fact that it is dubbed (but tolerably so) and the fact that the plot relies a little too heavily on techno babble, so don't expect a great amount of depth or complex character development. But if you're a fan of the Final Fantasy films or just enjoy watching cool looking japanese robots beating seven shades out of each other, this will definitely appeal!
