Movie Reviews of Chobits - The Chobits Collection
Movie Review: the lolicom-persocom
Summary: 4 Stars
This CLAMP movie plays the Lolicom card to the hilt: an excruciatingly cute-and-innocent woman-child is ...exposed to many not-so-innocent situations. Technically, you cannot call it Kidporn, since she is an android.
Will her little cybernetic heart eventually find love and happiness from a clueless young yokel ? From the opening credits, we are led to expect a heartwarming - if kinky - love story, with a happy ending.
Instead of that, we are treated to a dark and convoluted whodunit ("it" being the innocent cutie), along with somewhat uncomfortable allusions ( husbands neglecting their wives for computer "yummies" ). Some sequences also border on the supernatural genre.
The conclusion is hard and sobering: humans and androids ( read: Japanese and Gaijin ) are indeed different -as men are from Mars and women from Venus. We can coexist only if we know what each can do and not do. Blind love only brings heartaches. Some will accept the differences and love anyway...
An engrossing movie, with interesting definitions of love, but expect no sweetness other than eye candy.
