Review of Akira
Honestly... just wow. It was SUCH a trip from start to finish. From the beautiful visuals, insane animation, immersive soundtrack and a story that constantly keeps you guessing. I did not expect to enjoy this movie as much as I did. I have no idea what I just saw, I didn't understand most of it, but that didn't seem to affect my overall enjoyment of the film. If anything, it was a very pleasant confusion, if that makes sense. Throughout the whole movie I kept thinking "I have no clue what's going on, but I LOVE IT!!". Movies always have nicer animations than series, that's a given,but I did not expect something that old with THIS quality. My only complaint was how unsynchronized the mouth movements were at times (watched it with its original japanese voice acting), but that's just me being nitpicky.
Overall, definitely do recommend. Please watch it. It's a classic for a reason.
