Release date: 03/31/2017
Runtime: 120 min
"Ghost in the Shell" (2017) is an American science fiction film based on the anime and manga of the same name. The film is set in a futuristic world where people increasingly enhance and expand their bodies with technology.
The plot centers on Major, a cyborg agent who works for the government and hunts the dangerous hacker Kuze with her team. During her investigation, Major discovers a conspiracy within the government that calls her own past and identity into question.
The film is visually stunning, with spectacular special effects and futuristic designs that bring the world of the story to life. Scarlett Johansson's performance as Major is solid, but the decision to cast a white actress for a role that was Asian in the original has led to some controversy.
While the film is visually impressive, it lacks some depth and complexity. The plot is predictable and the characters are flat and uninteresting. Unlike the original anime, it's less about the philosophical and ethical issues surrounding the merging of man and machine, and more about action and visual effects.
Still, Ghost in the Shell is an entertaining film with great special effects and action sequences. However, fans of the original should be prepared for the film to make some changes and adjustments to the story and characters. Overall, the film is a solid adaptation of the classic and provides a good introduction to the world of Ghost in the Shell for newcomers.
