As the police close in on their prey, they begin to uncover political intrigue at the highest levels, finally facing the Puppet Master, only to find out a most unexpected secret. Like many of the adult oriented Anime films, 'Ghost In The Shell' has its share of nudity and violence, along with a sprinkling of explicit language. Unlike many other films of this type, though, it is not done to excess. The action never gets in the way of the unusually intelligent story. Generally, the transfer is quite good.
Colors are solid and the image is very clear with good detail.
I did notice a rather unusual anomaly in several scenes, though. A slight shift, or weave, in the picture. I'm not certain if this is a problem with the transfer or perhaps the film element, but it is never severe enough to cause a problem. The stereo surround soundtrack is presented with an English version on the digital tracks and the original Japanese version on the analog tracks. The mix contains a number of good directional effects, including directional dialog.
