Movie Reviews of Akira [Blu-ray]

Movie Review: (Almost) definitive version of the classic
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a great release, especially for the audiophile, and a great transfer, true to original theatrical releases, with grain, muted colours and vibrant tones mixed, and truly a must for fans of the film. The only missing piece that would have made this the definitive version for me, were some of the extras from the Pioneer DVD version. Having said that, for me, Blu-ray is about THE BEST vision and sound, and THAT is what keep bringing me back to a BD for repeated viewing. I would rather the PCM Uncompressed soundtracks than gimmicks.

Movie Review: the best sound in a blu ray
Summary: 5 Stars

i was hoping for less dust specs and such on the blu ray but the sound more than makes up for this. akira in blu ray looks great but i remembered how much better the step up to dvd from vhs was and thought the bd would do the same. everything you have heard about the japanese audio is true, it fills up my room in ways that have me looking up and down not just side to side.

this was my first dvd purchase years ago and am happy to own this on blu ray

Movie Review: more than amazing
Summary: 5 Stars

I know this movie since I'm 13... It's a big hit in France for my generation, and I did not watch it since 10 years maybe. I bought it because my US friends did not know about this anime. It blow my mind, again. It's crazy to thing that film was made in 88. It changed the way of designing video games forever, and video games changed the way of designing movies. I'm just affraid about what Hollywood it's going to do when they'll try to remake it...

Movie Review: The Ultimate Akira
Summary: 5 Stars

If you have seen Akira before, then don't hesitate in getting this, the ultimate Akria experience.. If you have not seen Akira then i highly recommend you do.
The picture and sound are fantastic. The English Truehd track is pretty good, but i would recommend watching using the Japanese TrueHD with subtitles.. It seems my laserdisc and dvd versions will have to retired.

Movie Review: Akira
Summary: 5 Stars

I can't say I understand this film fully yet, but I can say that I loved it! This is a rich film with lots to offer and incredible animation. I watched this after it being recommended to me many times and I wasn't disappointed. Yes, it's difficult to grasp at first, yes the animation is bizarre at times and yes you will enjoy it regardless. Give it a go.
