VERY IMPORTANT, I am currently collecting emails and messages to send to Criterion in an effort to get a release of this film. Everyone, please contact me as soon as possible to support this wonderous film. SIncerly, Angel's Egg Coalition.
Wow, they sure don't make anime like this anymore, the animation in this is alot better than most modern day anime, which is pretty sad, also this movie reminds me so much of another animated film called Fantastic Planet, which I absolutely adore
The only thing that bugs me is this movie has NO FACIAL EXPRESSIONS WHAT SO EVER!!! the only expression i see in this movie so far is Extreme bordom and apathy!
I know the music and such is suppose to help "feel" the world they live in, but how are we suppose to now what the Characters are feeling? take a lucky guess?
Since so many people are voicing their opinions of the art and such, I actually don't really like how this person draws faces. They seem a bit insubstantial and detached. I don't mean their expressions, either. I think that a lot of the art in this is really good, but the artist should develop their characterization and all around style of faces.
i love the art, but its hard for me to watch..........im sittin on my bed and its toasty warm and the music is puttin me to sleep lol i dont think thats what they intended
omg such an abstract movie... i love it, it`s raw, but that`s what it makes it interesting.
i think it`s all about how the world dies and then rises into rebirth. also, there are some religious things in the movie (like the guy who carries a cross shaped weapon, the word in the title "angel" that makes us think the girl resembles an angel and some other ones), so i guess it has some apocalyptic themes in it too.
well obviously if this is part 3 then ive watched 1 and 2. and i this is my 1st time watching it so how elce would i find out wether i liked it if i never watch it? try looking into things before u make idiotic coments... also look at the date... chances r that if the coment is over a month old, then that person probly dosent realy care...
Because a lot of people have trouble focusing on things that move slowly. If it's a movie, generally it's being watched with expectations to keep one's attention but if things get slow for so long, it makes it too easy to be distracted. Also, it makes it difficult to become immersed in the world of the movie. Having a mind that appreciates new-age art is fine, but it's wrong to berate others just because they don't share that appreciation.
@standdownman as i said earlier... check the date... chances are if its more than a month they probly dont care... and considering its been 9 months... i couldnt care less... ive moved on...
people tend to either love or hate this anime. and god i can't stand it. i did watch the entire thing too. it's not that i don't get it; i do understand the symbolism/metaphor. but just... i really can't stand it. it's definitely not for everyone!
it's the anime version os stanley kubrics 2001: a space oddyssey, no dialogue, starnge, yet deep, and few people actually enjoy the act of watching it
I can't immagine if all main Final Fantasy had anime like this....

When she's running, from 0:30 - 0:44, it reminds me of the black rabbit of death in Watership down. :p

What a dark and beautiful work of art. They should display this movie in an art museum. It must have taken loads of time just to animate that hair.
