well… those were definitely some choices.
davidehrlichMar 31, 2017so are we just going to ignore the fact that a japanese woman was kidnapped and turned into a caucasian robot? this might be the most sinister film i've ever seen in my life.
willApr 3, 2017ive been using my employee free pass on everyone who goes to see this movie so it gets no money 😇

My primary takeaway from this film is that ScarJo's haircut makes her look very Elven, & that I would now like to see her play an elf.
Eli HayesApr 24, 2017There are some amazing jackets in Ghost In The Shell. There are at least five that I want to bring your attention to. Now, three of them are worn by Scarlett Johansson. Because it's dead new, there aren't many screenshots of this yet, so you'll have to bear with…
🇵🇱 Steve G 🐝Apr 2, 2017I kind of fell for this right away, such gorgeous affected designer melancholy, and what's initially clumsy about it (and there's a lot) also seems deliberately calculated to echo this tantalizingly janky early 90's vibe, I dunno. I mean Michael Wincott is even in it.…

karen h.*Was a 5, now a 15* Time hasn't exactly been kind to this clunky soulless reinterpretation, but the ambition of its production design and world building earns the entire enterprise one star for trying. And that's all. Corey's pick for the week on the podcast. Listen up…

Scarlett is my favorite Asian person
zxki likedGhost in the ShellIf only this movie was made ethically, it would have been in my all-time favourites. The visual and sound effects are crazy good, like crazy crazy. The design and colours are so satisfying. The score is electrifying. The story is generic, but it's done well. Im not going to talk about the acting or…
Hank Leet dislikedGhost in the ShellI had no idea that Scarlett Johansson was Japanese
- Lea likedGhost in the Shell
I mean, yeah the role was definitely made for an asian person but Scarlett Johansson was still stunning in it. It is a great movie but in my opinion, not more than that.
Sharon Ma dislikedGhost in the Shell2/5 this wasn’t the best adaptation of the manga/anime, but the aesthetics were nice
Lilli likedGhost in the ShellHonestly not terrible but probably not gonna watch it anytime soon
- NathanDirector likedGhost in the Shell
Rating: 5.9/10 The 2017 live-action adaptation of Ghost in the Shell is a visually stunning but narratively hollow film that perfectly captures the iconic aesthetic of its source material while completely missing its soul. The film's beautiful visuals and immersive world-building are overshadowed…
Obihulk lovedGhost in the Shell8.4/10 I don’t know much about the anime but this movie is beautiful and emotional. It shows us how human we can be and how we can strive from it. The visuals are breathtaking with my mind drawing back to blade runner 2049. I would love to see more of it First watch:11-05-23
The One likedGhost in the ShellThis film is afraid to step out of the box. Everything it does is safe and acceptable. It's not a bad movie, just suffers from lack of creative talent. I really enjoyed it but i feel as if i enjoy it more for what it CAN be, rather than what it is

Starting 15mins of movie is good then some action sences and the concept of the movie is really nice
MLmovie likethe movie was taken far from the originality and added bits and pieces of the movie here and there for some cliche effect. very disappointed.
JCJeff CannonVisually stunning. That's about it. Lacking substance, especially if you've seen the original 1995 movie - many of the scenes are recreated exactly.

too long that got lost and forget the theme
LALisa AdamsNot worth your time or money
DLDaniel M. LopezI enjoyed it stayed true to the anime

not really close to the original
GOGrace OcranMovie was alright. Lacked depth and a better plot. Had some "wtf" moments. Overall a 3 out of 5 mainly because it wasn't boring but it lacked in everything but concept. Was disappointed because there was so much potential and so little of that potential fulfilled. The…
NRNathan RobertsWhile it's a cool concept, its the execution that failed. I feel like all aspects went more into the look of the film rather than actual character and plot depth.

Ghost in the Shell looks great, sounds great and has a gaping hole at its center — where its emotional core should be.

It is this rage for authenticity, more than the leading lady, that transforms Ghost in the Shell into an American product. Here’s an irony: if anything preserves the unnerving quiddity and strangeness of the Japanese movie, it is Johansson.

This version may not break new ground, but it revisits familiar territory with a vibrant sense of style and welcome restraint. It exemplifies the kind of respectable and utterly unnecessary remake that now defines the Hollywood business model.
