ugh . This is an extremely dry anime.  The manga version by Masamune Shirow is filled with bits of humor.  Not so for the anime.  The character Batou was especially funny in the manga, but, for reasons unknown, he is the driest character in the already humorless anime version.  Expect long scenes filled with monotonous talking.  These really make the movie crawl.  One minute there's action, next you're listening to Matoko or Batou go on and on about existentialism.  Seriously, these little talks, take up 3/4 of the movie.  The visuals are awesome, no question about that.  Even so, they do not fulfill the need for SOME kind of thread of a story.  Altogether, not much actually, HAPPENS during the movie.  If you must see it, rent it first to be sure you want it

Eh. Not really. . Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning (Jonathan Liebesman, 2006)    In the documentary that serves as one of the DVD extras for Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning, a number of the movie's connections talk repeatedly about how their goal for this movie was to push the envelope with the gore. One even says that the people who went to see Hostel and The Hills Have Eyes (2006) will go to see this movie and expect the violence to be kicked up a notch. Well, folks, I just saw the unrated version of your movie, and I've only seen the rated version of Hostel. And I hate to break it to you but, well, even cut by the censors, Hostel blew you out of the water.    For those who have been living in a cave for the past thirty-two years, a quick plot summary: there's a very odd family living out in the middle of nowhere. When the main local business, a slaughterhouse, closed down, it took most of the population with it-- save this family. (The fact that the slaughterhouse is still in operation in the original film, and there are neighbors in some of the original canon films, seems to have completely escaped screenwriter Sheldon Turner [The Longest Yard].) As with any TCM movie, there must be a batch of clueless teenagers, here two guys-- Eric (Tru Calling's Matthew Bohmer), on his way back to Vietnam, and his brother Dean (Zerophilia's Taylor Handley), who's planning on ditching the war and heading for Mexico-- and their girlfriends, Bailey (Diora Baird, recently of Wedding Crashers) and Chrissie (The Fast and the Furious' Jordana Brewster), respectively. There will also be a lot of revving chainsaws.    Now, I readily admit I'm one of the people who didn't recognize the brilliance of Tobe Hooper's original vision for a lot of years after I first saw the original film (close to twenty, in fact)-- thank you, DVD commentary, for pointing out so many things I'd missed my first few times around. I'm still not sure it deserves the classic status it has come up with since, but it's a good, solid piece of work, groundbreaking for its time. There hasn't been a single film, canonical or no, following it that's lived up, but the straight remake Marcus Nispel popped out with a couple of years ago has been the best of a bad lot. Unfortunately, it looks as if the sequels to the remake will have the same relative quality as the sequels to the original-- worse. The acting is wooden, the direction pedestrian, the special effects pretty good but nothing special. But what these guys were after, they tell us, was something really over the top. They were striving not to make a good movie, but to make the mother of all splatter films. And, quite simply, even within the Hollywood machine, they were well upstaged by Hostel before they even started filming. *

It was what I expected . I purchased this DVD set in 2001 and found it to be quite good, just I was a little disappointed with the Genesis DVD because it was not a movie and they could of done a movie instead of a documentary.
