Big robots fighting plus war crimes makes for a good movie. Amura seriously needs help though.

The animation wasn't bad. Somewhat of an improvement over the series it adapted. But dear god, the voice acting was so bad. And the way they pronounced words was just terrible.

I’ve never seen this movie before and I was surprised that even with the sci-fi angle how anti-war this movies’s perspective is. As battle after battle takes place the movie takes the time to show the immense human cost of mothers killed in front of their children and refugees having to fight to protect both the young and old who can’t protect themselves. The main character suffers many breakdowns and his mother laments a children who wouldn’t hurt a fly now killing a solider in front of her. Deep and painful stuff. I wish today more movies took the time to show the painful costs of war.
