Anime Movie REview: Vexille
First and foremost,it is TOTALLY unmemorable. The story was a story told a million fold to the extend it would be a footnote had it been in GITS. The animation though nice is too clean.As though you never aged and dirt was something that never existed and that the grain of materials had been sandpapered.But I guess you could say it was a particular "style".Fair enough.Tho i have to admit i liked the slum introductionary scene which gave a rather authentic feel of such an enviroment but it was WAY too brief.
The story though had no excuse.Apparently from the same makers as appleseed which was no surprise as the graphics were similar ,the "swat team elite" idea was not new..the female main character even looked "similar" and had same characteristics. In fact if one was to say it was a continuation from the last movie i'd not be surprised. THat being said.it made the movie even worse. I mean you do expect "difference" in a "different" movie. Unless this was a continuation of appleseed. If not, it was like a replica. Dull...should never repeat the same thing twice.
The music was alright.but needed more "umph".They put the engines louder than the music...which i think should have been the inverse...music always pumps the mood up a bit.expecially a good track.not the engine noise unless it was a movie about racing in which the engine would naturally give the feel of the vehicle's power...of sorts.
Overall
Story: SUCKS
Characters: EXACTLY like Appleseed..talk about no imagination.(since its not appleseed,it shouldnt be the same...guess the debate is this is the maker's trademark or sumthin...still a minus point..imo)
Graphics: Good
Music: good but engine should be quieter than the music.Cant catch the beat it tends to fade out too often.I'd rather a more consistent beat and track.
Btw,tho there were a few nice fight scenes the mechas weren't very impressive.I guess there are logics behind that.
