    It brought live action to the futuristic anime.

    I am a fan of the "Ghost in the Shell" anime, and if you have not yet seen any you will really enjoy this one. The camera work and the technology that they used really brought to life how futuristic the city looked in the original anime. (Much like the original "Blade Runner" but not as dark.) If you are a fan you might not like it as much as the original. Try to keep an open mind and watch it for it's own merit. You like me will probably find something "off" about it. Some scenes will be very familiar but something will not be quite right. I found that was the case often in the movie. The director of the original anime; Manoru Oshi, told the director Rupert Sanders to make it his own, and not to worry about how he made his anime. It's information like that, that you will find in the bonus material to explain why it's not quite right. P.S. I think that "Beat" Takeshi Kitano made a great chief of section 9.

    Speaking as pure cinema, the movie isn't a total failure that fans of the original anime/manga make it out to be. Does it deviate from the source material? Yup. But I understand a mainstream movie studio wanting things to appeal on a mainstream level, so changes don't tend to bother me. There are some very intriguing concepts brought forward, but the execution doesn't succeed in the same respect as the visuals. Beautiful, bright, colorful effects and cinematography pop extremely well (in 4K especially). Other genre classics like Blade Runner and Robocop did it better, but don't write this one totally off. Worth at least one viewing.

    The movie repeats several times that, Pieces of the majors memory peek through which she clings to, to help her find the truth. It is our actions that defines us. These abstract pieces helps the Major. She has big questions about the value of her humanity. And it's when applying that human side of herself that she makes the best choices. For example, she purposely puts herself in the way of an explosion to protect her partner. And she comforts a woman who she thinks might be the mother of the girl she used to be. The graphic struggles that she overcomes makes the movie intriguing as well as entertaining.

    I was expecting this to be terrible based on what other people told me, but I thought it was a fun movie and pretty good. Only real issue I had is that I like to rip my 4k/Blu-Rays to use with on my home theater PC/server and I was having a bit of trouble getting this disc to rip with Make MKV (no issues with other 4k titles for me). Not a big deal though.

    It's clear to say that this movie isn't for everyone, especially for those who are brand new to this franchise since this movie was based off all the previous anime films and series that came before it, especially the 1st Anime movie. I only watched the 1st anime movie that came out in the 90's and I really enjoyed it and so enjoyed this movie even more since they added much more to this film that wasn't in the 1st anime film. As for the 4k HDR, it was done gorgeously and wouldn't recommend it any other way. I'd say rent it 1st to check it out before you buy if you're new to it, if you're a fan just buy it. LoL.
