Sky Crawlers - Movie
K7IA:
Sky Crawlers is one of my favorites and a masterpiece imo
(click to show/hide)I would say it would account for a normal anime until you realize that the war between Europe and US is solely for entertainment and amusement of humankind. Kildren are manufactured humans and used in these wars as they are totally dispensable (which the teacher is totally against and choose to change sides) and replaced as they are KIA.
There are simple clues, like the reaction of old lady in the plane crash site - treating the pilot as if not human - , the tv screen in the bar diner during the war between the EU and US showing stats as if it is just a match of some sort and various others.
They all look familiar because there are only a handful different types models of kildren and they can not recognize each other just by the looks.
I was horrified really that this could indeed be possible in the next 100 years, and it reminded me of possible advances in cloning humans.
I had similar feelings when I watched the movie Moon (2009) where a guy makes a 3 year contract for working on the moon for harnessing energy.
No wonder we humans are the most dangerous creatures of all.

(click to show/hide)I liked how they had the people who started to realize exactly what it was and how there was a limited number of different kildren that the one girl thought she was going crazy and then the guy with the newspaper who was dead more or less shows up again with a new name. Exact same OCD habit of folding the paper. The same guy flying in after the credits for the end.
The action that was in it was simply astonishingly well made
Like i said above if the planes were real models instead of imaginary you could definitely have mistaken it for film

Really boring film. Horrible, horrible pacing.
Action sequences are well done but there's just too few of them to make a difference.
A below-average anime movie in my books.
