How could anyone not love this film?

Rating: 10/10 (10 March 2001)

This film is the most powerful, thought provoking titles to ever be realised. It has the ability to show a dim look at the future, inter-mixed with a euthopia like technological age. Many films have a good basis, but are held back by the special effects of the day. Akira has the ideas and foundations, and due to the animation it can achieve it's full potential and does. With no characters who are fully good or fully bad, it is easy to relate and understand to each situation, whether we have experienced them ourselves or not. The pure idea of Akira is powerful enough, but to create the film with such an impact as this has is one hell of a task and one that should be credited fully. This film is abosolutely flawless. The character, scenery and mech designs are perfect, the script is unbeatable, the story moves at the perfect pace. The whole film is utterly perfect
