Review of Memories

An anime film composed of three different stories, interesting.... Movie 1-Magnetic Rose The story tells the story of a group of space engineers who received an SOS signal somewhere in the middle of space and decided to go to help those who sent it... A very atmospheric beginning, the attention to detail is amazing, we can easily feel that we are somewhere in space with people living like this on a daily basis. The animation is great, as befits a movie, but what impresses me even more is the sound design, the saxophone in the background does the job, it's a pity thatfrom the moment we reach the ship sending the SOS signal, the story starts to get stupider and stupider.

I think the characters are too accepting of the weirdness they encounter, like a palace in the middle of a spaceship isn't weird to them? if not, the anime should explain it because it's weird to watch.
They no longer behave rationally on this ship and do stupid things, are they really a space crew? The fact that they separated is the stupidest thing of all.
They don't make realistic decisions and don't ask valid questions about what's happening here, there's a big dissonance between a credible beginning.
And that's how it is for half the movie, but despite the low credibility of what was happening, the mystery and tension saved it all, the atmosphere pouring out of the screen was still there, then they completely let go of the brakes on the hallucinations , everything turned into an oric dream, cool, but the topic of this anime although quite interesting, it turned out to be too simply presented and served on a platter and some of the secrets were predictable, the MC thread connects nicely with the topic but in the end nothing comes of it and does not arouse any emotions, the final explanation of it all was quite interesting but not as if it could be if everything was more subtle, it's not always expected, but such a short anime has too little time to compensate for it somehow.
7/10

Movie 2-Stink Bomb

A very stupid beginning of this story, important capsules that should not be taken are normally on the desk in the office that anyone can enter... then it doesn't get better, stupidity after stupidity and I don't know what purpose it serves, it sounds like a "comedy" of errors to me it's not working.
I honestly gave up about halfway through.
4/10

Film 3-Cannon Folder

Well..it seems like a satire on Germany during WW2 or other regimes.
A stylized and pessimistic, quite unique story, the senselessness and absurdity of war, people presented as cogs in the machine, children who will inherit all this "dirt" and the wheel of shit will continue.
A pleasant, although slightly depressing anime with an interesting visual setting that makes watching the events on the screen much more interesting.
A huge advantage is that the length is perfect, the anime shows everything it has to show and is not forced, short and to the point.
8/10

Due to the fact that the second and worst part takes so much time, I cannot 100% recommend this movie as a whole, so it gives me "mixed feelings" but ultimately I encourage you to check it out for yourself.
7/10
