Synopsis
Visionary filmmakers James Cameron (AVATAR) and Robert Rodriguez (SIN CITY) create a groundbreaking new heroine in ALITA: BATTLE ANGEL, an action-packed story of hope, love and empowerment. Set several centuries in the future, the abandoned Alita (Rosa Salazar) is found in the scrapyard of Iron City by Ido (Christoph Waltz), a compassionate cyber-doctor who takes the unconscious cyborg Alita to his clinic. When Alita awakens she has no memory of who she is, nor does she have any recognition of the world she finds herself in. Everything is new to Alita, every experience a first. As she learns to navigate her new life and the treacherous streets of Iron City, Ido tries to shield Alita from her mysterious past while her street-smart new friend, Hugo (Keean Johnson), offers instead to help trigger her memories. A growing affection develops between the two until deadly forces come after Alita and threaten her newfound relationships. It is then that Alita discovers she has extraordinary fighting abilities that could be used to save the friends and family she's grown to love. Determined to uncover the truth behind her origin, Alita sets out on a journey that will lead her to take on the injustices of this dark, corrupt world, and discover that one young woman can change the world in which she lives.

I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of limbs that get cut off in this movie.

mia lee vicinoMar 1, 2019one thing I learned from ALITA: BATTLE ANGEL is that human skin faces stretched over giant robot bodies are literally my least favorite thing in the world.

karen h.Feb 6, 2019I was higher than I intended to be when I watched this and I feel like I've met face-to-face with God.
YI JIANFeb 5, 2019Cameron's tin-eared writing plus Rodriguez's juvenilia is as dire as you'd expect, but Cameron's design and FX perfectionism plus Rodriguez's simple (and finally well-employed) economy is as tantalizing as it sounds. This is all over the place, an often eye-popping…

David SimsFeb 13, 2019"Whose body is this?" A film about bodies, identity, digital performance and engineered selfhood. A film about dysphoria and the joy of altering yourself to match how you feel. (Cis ppl do not interact!!) Rosa Salazar gives one of the best performances I've ever seen in a…

You can never go wrong with James Cameron. The worlds he makes are outstanding. If only he could show more of Alita’s world with another sequel. There’s so much potential

Waden lovedAlita: Battle AngelThis movie was fantastic. James Cameron really is a great director. The cgi was phenomenal, the fight scenes were suuuper awesome, and overall everything just looks cool. The story felt patchy at some points, like they needed to explain more or give us more puzzle pieces to help us understand…
zxki likedAlita: Battle AngelBeautiful, all the way round. Had afew nicks, but the majority was satisfying. I wish Alita and Ready Player One took eachothers qualities. The character building was slow but steady. Even if it got repetative, something new was blooming. The casting and acting was great. The sound effects were…

Really good movie! I hope it does well so they can make more and continue the story! Alita has an angels face but a warriors heart. This movie is pretty much non-stop from start to finish. It has a love story intertwined with a coming of age under dog story. It’s such a…

This movie was a mess and I think they tried to come for black people with the “It was 300 years. Get over it” line.

Like its unstoppable heroine, Alita: Battle Angel is something strange and unique and special, built from the finest repurposed parts.

It’s a story with too many influences, no cohesion, no apparent narrative purpose.

Alita: Battle Angel is Robert Rodriguez’s best film in many years. It’s an ambitious, impressive, visually spectacular production with great performances that make its strange world seem real.
