  • This movie is what Anime Live Action movies are supposed to be. Awesome film.

  • 見ていて苦痛だったな・・・

  • Man i remember buying this at HMV in 2005 seen it about five times its filled with cliche's but i still found this to one of those movies you just have to love. The film looks great the Acting was good plus the movie had a pretty powerful plot. It is not an action film like the trailer suggest its a Dramatic piece of art.

  • i saw him many times. japanese scifiart at very very best.

  • ET brought me here

  • OMG this was so great... really made my cry... and I am 25 y old guy. The direction is very specific, but the feel of this movie and music cannot be undermined!!

  • Haha, most people don't know is Neo-Human Casshern has been around since the 70's.

  • y r asian ppl always flying in their movies? and y must there always be a sword fight in damn near every asian made movie there is. culture yes. Entertaining not anymore now its damn cheesy. i guess life is not to critical on the asian race much even tho they do so much wrong. we are not as reserved as we might seem

  • @IcePickSnowmanzzzz the point to ur comment is purely racist and it insults me asian think outside and think beyong boundaries why they come up with such things, and for u to say this its like putting creativity to a stop mightest well make every movie nothing but a asshole in white room talking to himself wondering why he is there ;p

  • @IkaJester well its true i am japanese and most of the asian films i see of japanese are sooooooo off its always swords swords swords. like wtf dude i dont like my culture at all it so cliche.

  • @IcePickSnowmanzzzz you must be like 4 yrs old haha

  • @SuperNoobLamer your comment was very trite

  • Une incroyable daube ce film

  • my favourite!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!

  • i liked sins i found it to be epic :P

  • So what's wrong with sins? The anime is beautiful and really nicely done.

  • I don't know which made me cry more, this or Sins

  • @Sac077 I think sins is more deeper ..

  • The guy at 0:34 has THE BEST face

  • Holy shit this is crazy

  • BTW I'm a bit annoyed by the majority of Casshern fans now. The only reason why there are more fans now is because of that stupid anime SINS that came out, which I haven't watched. Most Casshern fan art is from SINS and not of this movie.

  • @aDinoSupremacist You're annoyed at Sins fans without watching it yourself? That anime is a masterpiece.

  • My DVD is all scratched up now. I refuse to buy the American version since it has 20 minutes cut, some of the subtitles are unfinished, and no special features. WTF America.

    This movie has absolutely amazing imagery. The storyline is great. There are some parts of it that are kinda stupid but it's easy to forget them.

    The ending just leaves me with so many questions and yet I am fine with there being no sequel.

  • 240p we meet again

  • This is how neo sapiens are created. One of which out of pure anger manages to conjure up some relics of western past. Evidenced by the sudden appearance of a gothic castle that he uses as his base of operations. He manages to mass produce robots to battle the Eastern Federation. He uses nazi type symbols for his 4 man faction. A faction that eventually dwindles down to nothing.

  • I enjoyed it. The Eastern Federation appears to be some kind of Communist dystopia, evidenced by the use of Hanzi and Cyrillic. The national speeches also sound like North Korean Broadcasts. But the elites arent Chinese. They are Japanese. Despite europa being in the story, there appears to be no europeans left. There is section 7, which appears to be remnants of Chinese civilization. These people are labeled terrorists and their bodies to be used as genetic experiments.

  • Comment removed

  • Its a pretty good film from what I have seen so far. The story is dark and potentially offensive for some. But its my cup of tea. The edgy sci fi is also quite unique given that its a Japanese movie.

  • Sure is NICE...The graphics,character,special effect,choreography of fight scenes and ALL,,,But I didn't UNDERSTAND it...I'm no JAPANESE...*_*

  • WTF ???

  • the movie's really bizzare when you just got in the ending you know on tv. you don't know what hass happened and everything but it looks like i should watch this movie on time the whole one

  • their movies are all to..like animation-ish they might as well make itt a full blow animation instead of having real actors . its like when thye make a movie it looks just like a game and is xtremely unrealistic with the movements and action lol .

  • Casshern has to be the best example of Christian Averse Film since, Federico Fellini's Otto e Mezzo. Where in that film, the main protagonist gives up on creating a Space Rocket Launch pad, and spends all his time messing with a Singing, (TJIOM) Dramatic Family Drama.

  • What Casshern realizes for many Japanese people is the ability for the Japanese nation to realise their dreams in Computer Graphics and Drama, but not in real life. All the beautiful achitecture cannot be recreated in real life, because the Japanese dissuade individuals from eating too much, and from not fitting their expensive italian clothes. CC is BC.

  • sorry to say this,but he is way hotter in the anime

  • Watching this just for some reason all the voices remind me of Bleach and Code Geass

  • Goemon is a better example of Kazuaki Kiriya's work. This movie has a better music score though.

  • they should do one for cassher sins, too...not that it would make much difference, i suppose...

  • this is the most amazing and truly beautiful film ive seen. it does have subtitles, but you must listen to their language and their real voices if you are to watch it.

  • whats the song in this trailer?

    

  • @adandrea33 the back horn - requiem

  • whats the song in this trailer its bad ass

    

  • Awesome movie!!!!!

    

  • カッコいいー♪(^-^)

  • Nice visuals, but all in all I think it's just epic boring. >_>

  • @whiterabbit360

    trust me its an awesome movie

    i watched it like 8-9 times now..

    its still awesome

    you should watch it

  • This is exactly why I come to trailer pages before I go watch de movie lol, not to see clips of the movie rolled into one as a sypnosis.... TOO SEE DE REVIEWS~~!! lololol You can always tell when a movie is awesome from these pages... or when it was total crap =_=' You people are a great way to save money lol. Thank You~~

  • albeit its shortcomings, i think there really aren't many movies/films like this.

  • Saw it about a year ago. I think it's best seen in pieces, because the storytelling style is a bit weird. It's like a really really long music video... good, but better if seen in sections because it feels like it's just the same music video that's been playing for the last hour or so. If it were a series of short films, I think I'd like it more, instead of one single movie.

  • I NEED TO KNOW THAT SONG.

  • this movie and its soundtrack are my favorite ♥♥

  • 1:06 Astonishingly cool!

  • it was good, but sooo random!

  • anymore japanese movies similar to this or better ones than this? please tell me. cheers

  • @guilest4user goemon, from the same producer of this movie.

  • @tsukasa1608

    cheers dude, ill look into that

  • @guilest4user No but check this movie out! it kicks ass, and its forgien. The good, the bad, and the weird.

  • @guilest4user Natural City. The Japanese Blade Runner.

  • the localization was a piece of shit. the cut out scenes, rearranged the movie, and changed the context with an inferior translation to the Japanese release. SHAME on Dreamworks for taking over 3 years to say fuck you to Casshern fans.

  • CGとかはアレだったけど映像としては綺麗だったな

  • i've watchd the series and loved it!

    can anyone give me a reliable site where I can watch this movie? Thanks :D

  • I can't find the trailer with english subs =/

  • Jun Kaname <3

  • I'm gonna watch this right now, I hope its good!

  • Gorgeous atmosphere...

  • The music in this movie is soo sad to listen to. I bought the soundtrack because the music was one of the big keys in making this movie legendary.  The movie has an amazing story and message to give, backed by an outstanding cast and music creator. I can't get enough of this movie. My favorite movie of all time :D

  • i loved this movie its so fucken awsome sorry about the bad language but this move fucken rocks

  • it's weird that japan with their technology and advanced computer science.. couldnt compete what the hollywood had achieved and the funny thing is... hollywood is using japanese technology for their vision... zzzzzzzz

  • @plonkies good ideas makes the big diffrence my friend

  • @Cat6768 no,money makes the big differences.. talkin bout ideas? are you serious mate? this japs and those koreans they got crazy ideas... without japan no MGS saga, without korea no Oldboy

  • @plonkies >.> toshay my friend

  • I still don't know why he didn't wear that kick ass head gear

  • Хороший фильм. Можно сказать, один из моих любимых фильмов!

  • Oh fuck the hell yes.

  • This film is unreal! Without the action it would still be brilliant for the messages it delivers too its audience

  • movie was a let down, slow going, boring at time, lack of action. goemon is way better. watch the part on trailer on 2:29-2:31 lol sounds like his sayin "gay menace"

  • @zhang2003 the trailer is only 2 minutes -_-

  • I like how they put the name of the song on the trailer. In the US, some songs they use in trailers don't even make it in the movie (or are just in the ending).

    Does anyone remember the Neo-Human that couldn't speak. Were those Chibi-like sequences is thought/emotion processes? I really wish those were more elaborated on..

  • ....uuummm....sorry but what exactly is this movie about lol...i do not follow at all xD

  • wth? they make a movie out of every anime! :o looks alright tho :B

  • 伊勢谷さんでもこんな特撮みたいなの出るんだなぁ

  • Watched it today again gotta say a lot of it reminded me of Viewtiful Joe, But all in all it was a great movie :D

  • they should keep Anime things to Anime. Live action movies can be really ridiculous in an Anime perspective :P

  • Vanquish, upcoming game by sega, is inspired by this :)

  • where can I watch this!?

  • @Grindendier I found it on dramacrazy, Google the site for the URL (don't worry ya'll I'm not a spam bot, it's actually there xD). I'm watching it now! >w< YUSUKE ISEYA ♥

  • not a great movie but worth watching for fun

  • id f*ckin love casshern series once ive knew there was a movie of it ...

    f*ck there is ! and i did hesitate ...

    and bout the movie ... ok ... uhm? verdict?

    uhm ok nice armor without its signature logo ...

    but whats with hell why not include the helmet??

    this one cash is just like a ninja cosplaying anyone?

  • where can i find it`?

  • WHAT A MASTERPIECE!!!

  • @geokonti is it really a masterpiece if the japanese people thought it was the 2nd worst film to come out that yet?

  • will DL this today, looks awesome but ive read alot of reviews that doesnt sound very promising. Similair movies like this? only 1 comes to mind, from the same producer(s); The Legend Of Goemon (2009), very very very awesome!

    Also ive heard about a movie that will come out in 2010 this year, or 2012..not sure. Its named; The Cup Of Tears. Be sure to keep an eye out for this movie ;)

  • @LatRz0 if u know of ne other movies like this and cashern pls tell me

  • @coolkenny13 beside Casshern, Goemon and The Cup Of Tears, i would'nt know. Goemon was the first of these kind of movies i have seen so :)

    Anyways, if you come across something awesome like these, let me know k

  • @coolkenny13 Goemon was way awesome than this. Was created by the same producer/director too.

  • The anime was worth watching..I just can't seem to cope with the different style of looks in this live-action Dx

  • This movie is on sale in a couple of video stores in NYC. They're all in Japanese with English subtitles tho'! I still want this movie, but don't feel like reading sibtitles and watching the film at the same time.....yeah I know, lazy!! lol

  • @Orbot lol you will cringe if you watched it English dubbed -- original version is always better imo.

  • @daretodream86 Lol, I know. some animes do tend to have questionable dubs (I've heard some horrid stuff for real!!)

  • This looks kinda cool. It reminds me of Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow.

  • @oyeboy94 watch this film and you know these films simply can't be even compared.I can' even rememeber what SCWT was ABOUT while Casshern leaves many issues to think over. A serious piece of food for thought.

  • Yūsuke Iseya was hot....

  • alrite someone give me a movie review. Was it good? And did it relate close to Cisshenr. Is it about the newer or later one?

  • oh man i laughed like hell during this movie

  • is it good?

  • Why doesn't he wear the head piece to the outfit ?

  • Comment removed

  • Von Diesem Film muss ich immer ... wirklich immer .... WEINEN... Der Film ... ist sooo... WUNDERSCHÖN..... So... Traurig.... SO voller Liebe.... und ... Mir Fehlen die Worte .. man MUSS ihn einfach Sehen Um Mich Zu Verstehen ..<333
  • la trama del film è in gran parte diversa dall'anime!! secondo me hanno sprecato tempo nel fare questo film.. le uniche cose apprezzabbili sono il costume di casshern e i robot!

  • The bad ass movie before Raiden of MGS2 :-3

  • Wow that movie was impressive. It was pretty hard to understand everything. But the message of the film was just wow. U really have to get it or you will find it boring.

  • those are such nazis

  • awful movie worthless than horse shit

    You should require pay back to clerk

  • Ihr könnt gerne, mehr Koreanische/Asiastische Filme auf der Seite schauen![Siehe Profil] wir bitten mehr als 240 Filme an & es werden immer mehr schaut nur vorbei es ist für jeden Geschmack was dabei!

  • @vergilsoul

    yeh, i doubt it a lot of people got the message..but we did! ;D

  • Story was pretty weak and very slow but the visuals were great.

  • Man, the first time I saw Casshern was on Sci-Fi Anime '95 week on cable. That's when they had Demon City Shinjuku, Loch the superpower, 8 Man after, Casshan the Robot Hunter, and some other one I can't remember. I didn't even know they had a live action movie of it. Nor did I know it actually came out in the 70's either.

  • 5/5 .. excellent movie. You need to watch this! I just viewed it on Full Movies Free . net

  • Really love this movie but I kinda think it is so weird

  • shit movie

  • i don't give a DAMN what anybody says...this movie is excellent! this movie actually made me CRY! can you BELIEVE it? if you can get a lil bit past the "cheese" action bits, you'll understand this is one of the most heartbreaking stories.

  • @aniraina21 I agree with you. I've never cried because a movie before. It was the only movie which made me cry.

    And I think ppl don't undertsand the message from Kazuaki Kiriya.

  • @aniraina21 Heyy, I watched this today for the first time...I thought it was visually stunning...I managed to follow and briefly understand the storyline, but could you elaborate on the ending for me please....I didnt fully understand what happened when everyone seemed to have died...thanku......also do u know or recommend any other films that are similar to this? thanks

  • @rockette1991

    Iron Man.

  • @rockette1991 i recommend a film called alive and a film callled versus. the ending to the film is basically the two of them recreating life out of love the way humanity originally came to be. but after time humans begin to think the only way to solve violence is with more violence. and so on and so on. they basically recreated life on another planet giving some one else hope or a chance for peace in their future, to start again. its all one big metaphor.

  • @thefatman69dude versus is one of the movies that the ending confused me?

  • @project0omega really maybe u should watch it again it makes sense.

  • @thefatman69dude O.k i guess i should since i understand things more now ....hm i recall the only part i didnt get then was the good guy was really the bad guy and vice versa ....will there be a 2?

  • @project0omega no but yeah basically u got it the idea is that the definition of good and evil is always changing. and the idea is with different generation's heros and villains change. at one point the good guy could become the bad guy. there is no number 2 to but the director did another movie called alive which is awesome.

  • @thefatman69dude oh no 2 so whats the sequel......hey wiki said it was one going to be released this year?

  • Though I'll admit the anime doesn't look anywhere near interesting as this.

  • This looks like shit

  • i wasn't quite so sure what to think of this film. it seemed like a really nice art piece up until the point where the neoroids attack and casshern starts smashing up poorly rendered cg robots. for a film that's all about the special effects, the special effect weren't all that good...anyone agree?

  • @technofrenik I dont think the special effects were supposed to look real, they were trying to create a hyper real world. I dont think the film was about special effects the film was a huge art piece on the effects of war and human violence. the effects were only a small part of it. the movie was trying to get across a interesting metaphor on human nature.

  • if you like this watch appleseed ex machina

  • Maybe it was the bad translation, but this was the most baffling and confusing movie ever. Not to mention the fights had way too much shaky cam to be enjoyable, a la Batman Begins.

  • for the record, it completely depends on what version of the movie you watched.. the japanese original cut is really confusing. The north american release a year or two ago has a lot more scenes added in that make it a lot more sensible.

    This is one of my favorite movies of all time, regardless of the cheesey action scenes when hes fighting robots haha.

  • nice.

  • Tatta hitotsu no inochi wo sutete

    Umarekawatta fujimi no karada

    Tetsu no akuma wo tataite kudaku

    Kyasshan ga yaraneba, dare ga yaru?

  • Ya, I just sliced a robot in half; whatever.

  • i got this film in a car boot sale in aberdeen. i thought the cover looked cool so i got it . i never thought it would be so good though. theres something about it i just cant put my finger on. something that makes it stand out.

  • The song name is 'Requiem', by a Japanese band called The Back Horn. The song title is レクイエム in Japanese, copy paste it if you're having trouble, the band name is usually in English.

  • :( can someOne please help me out...

    ...tryin' to find the name of this Track or Score that plays on this Trailer...sounds pretty Hype, to Me...

    ...Appreciate it...

  • yesterday was my Birthday and i Got the Movie in the Special Edition!

    WOOOW that was a awesome Film!

  • Well Aren't you alucky ducky! I wanted to see this movie for a while now. My Dad decied to get Netflix so I got this on my queu now!

  • Oh My God,,,,,,,,,,,

    Im just in awe

  • This movie was so confusing. D:

    They did play some music from the Anime "Bleach" in here. :P

  • same guy was the music director for both

  • ??????????? are you dumb Lach1234??, maybe Casshern was released before you were born that's why you're thinking the musics are from bleach ...

  • Uh, no need to call me dumb. Just cause I didn't know one simple fact, you call me dumb?

    Don't assume things without having a clue about where your going with it.

  • Hhehehehehehe Sorry I was drunk yesterday :D I drunk so much strong Belgium Ale :D

  • is anyone aware of any films similiar to this

  • hmm if u mean with similar also with alot of deep thinking i recommend ghost in the shell,but if u mean just sth with this kind of beautiful CG scenes u could check out goemon,i think its by the same director

  • what about versus

  • lol if u mean FF XII versus,its a game not a movie

    and i got somehow the feeling hes asking for a movie^^

  • the only FF movie is advent children,also worth a try but it's much more an action movie than casshern

  • Versus is a movie back from 2001 and FFAC was not the only FF movie.

  • Final Fantasy The Spirits Within was an original movie before Advent Children.

  • try versus that looks just as tight as this

  • BEautiful movie good too.

    Moves kind of slow though it was great but it seemed like they really tried to tell everythong too much which made it move slow but hey we usually complain when they leave stuff out still good movie to wathc if love the series and its really is a beautiful movie.

  • It makes me think "Final Fantasy" Because of the style of fighting and the amazing environments..I'm gonna go buy this from my work asap...it looks and sounds amazing

  • I wish they would make a live action 'Karas' film.

  • thatd be pretty cool :)

  • yeah~~~~the movie was so cool!!~

  • zarigani aso is so beautiful.....

    She grew up eating Crawfish.

    aso 'Crawfish' kumiko forever!!!(^_^;)

  • Nothing like a Denko Punch in the nadgers to make you wish you'd stayed in bed that morning... oO

  • Eh? Isn't this based off the anime?

  • i watched this movie a good number of times and i still can't get enough of this scene, fits real good with the song

  • awesome movie

  • great movie! found it funny :). i found a copy at "bigmovies4free" - hope they make another :P
