Appleseed Alpha Movie Download

4 / 10

Disappointing!
Appleseed was always one of my favourite Manga series growing up along with the Appleseed (1988) Anime movie which is still one of my all time favourite Anime movies to this day.

Appleseed Alpha is yet another let down in the series much like the previous attempts made to renew the Appleseed series first was the god awful Appleseed (2004) remake that was given a wide release in the USA and Europe so much so that every Anime section in every DVD rental store and movie store had so many copies of it that were never rented or sold. Then Appleseed Ex Machina (2007) was released and while the animation was certainly better the movie was still a let down that tried way to hard.

Appleseed Alphas main problem is it doesn’t really have a storyline or any real character development there’s no backstory for the two main characters Deunan and Briareos the audience is just given some basic character information and a few traits that’s all. The audience isn’t given any real reason to care about these characters other than they are the focus point of the movie so unless you have read the Manga or have watched one of the previous movies then this movie might aswell be called Cyborg and Fan Service Girl because by the movies end you will have forgotten their names and forgotten this below average movie.

The only good thing about this movie is the animation style used is colourful, bright and looks fantastic. The style used is similar to the (2004) Appleseed movie only much better.

I wouldn’t recommend watching this movie even if your a fan of the Appleseed Manga series or the Original 1988 movie because it’s just not worth your time or money if you have never seen an Appleseed movie then do yourself a favour and watch the 1988 original movie and read the Manga it’s a thousand times better than this crap.Read More
