A gem of animation with a great concept that doesnt get used well enough. Film starts with a bit of heavy exposition which I understand and empathise with however its not the greatest. With that we rather quickly get to the point and are faced with a horrifying image of abandonment of humanity in pursuit of technological advancement that is to help humanity. I was very off put seeing the machine Z001 put to work as it ought to make feel anyone watching. That heavy scene might actually be to the movies detriment because its such a great concept to explore through cyberpunk animation that it leaves you wanting for more. I started to realise that with the tonal inconsistency. We have this terrifying machine and serious looking people that exude power to make it the new status quo but also some shots of short skirts clearly director was able to realise those tendencies with Golden Boy few years later to the fullest and such and there are actually funny moments and goofy faces. So guys do we do cyberpunk a genre about how progression of capitalism and technological advancement will in reality bring dreadfull consequences or a funny scifun movie with heart and social commentary. It strangely tries to strike inbetween which plays down the concept of this machine from the cover and makes jokes feel unwelcome. They instead chose to rather quickly escalate It would be fine but it goes for even wilder concept. S Ok... It goes for more action and comedic moments To end it on a positive note the character development of the government worker is nice. In addition his line goes so hard with no apparent reason. An endearing mess with a wasted potential that is still worth a watch for its animation and the creativy of its concepts.
