Alita: Battle Angel

[AntMan]

Just saw it this past Thursday, (early release).



LOVED IT!



They really (seamlessly) blended the CGI in with the actual actors, actresses and movie sets & props.

I could see pieces of the recent Astro Boy animation embedded in Alita.

Also, it had a whole lot of what I would have liked to see in the recent live-adaptation of Ghost in the Shell movie.

I highly recommend checking Alita out.

(P. S. As a really nice, sentimental side-note, I just ran across this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GNnFNxx4Exw)

Very entertaining movie, good CGI and some cool world-building.

Positive comments from you folks - and generally positive across-the-board from paying customers.

I wasn't really interested in this - but may well cave now

I was thinking about catching it this weekend when the wife goes to see the new Madea movie.
But the timing doesn't work out
There is almost an hour difference between the start times and end times of the 2 movies.

Caught this the other night and enjoyed it very much.

I hadn't realized it but the Alita: Battle Angel Movie was pretty closely based on an Anime OVA, which was released back in 1993:

Here's another interesting analysis of the Cameron version:

I caught it on HBO and really enjoyed it, even though it's not normally the type of film I'd gravitate to. Must say that her enlarged eyes were unnecessarily distracting, but I guess that comes form the source material (Anime or gaming?)
