Good but overrated epic.

Rating: Null/10 (4 June 2000)

The English Patient of anime titles. Even people who didn't like it that much won't dare criticize it for fear of being osticized by the anime community. I was somewhat dissappointed at this film. It raised issues and of course put up the bar for the all-aroundness of anime titles but it wasn't the midblowing experience i expected. Still, it was the dubbed version, which often doesn't capture all that the original has to offer. The plot was pretty interesting, the animation good, and offers some of the most trippy and creative scenes that i've ever seen. Still, tf only i had not heard so much about how this film was the holy grail of anime i might have enjoyed it more.
