Akira Ratings & Reviews
- KennyBarroz14 de mayo de 2025Legendary masterpiece. One of the best anime sci-fi movies of all time
- soylentmatthace 1 dThis movie is gorgeous and is dripping with style, and clearly earns its status as one of the most important movies ever made. It's also dark and sort of oppressively melancholy. Obviously you should know that going in, but the movie opens with an violent fight between biker gangs in a cyberpunk cityscape that is SO phenomenal it is impossible not to feel some degree of joy watching it, but then the rest of the movie... As gorgeously animated as it may be... Labors as hard as it can to crush the joy out of you. The movie isn't paced with the sort of rising tension / heroes journey / whatever that I think most audiences expect. Instead it's kind of holding your head down underwater while watching the light blink out of your eyes like Shamu drowning his trainer by her ponytail. If that's what your into .. or, you know, you're interested in watching one of the greatest feats of filmmaking ever performed... Then this is for you.
- Movie_Nerd16 de febrero de 2025Watch it and see for yourself, needn’t I say more
- scoobydon'thace 4 dParadigm shifter that still holds up nearly 4 decades later.
- avilesj0hace 5 dSuch an amazing story!!!
- jkljlk11975 de marzo de 2026"The future is not a straight line. It is filled with many crossroads. There must be a future that we can choose for ourselves."
- gooserex8 de enero de 2025God status level anime.
- Dominique Cote5 de diciembre de 2025Truly a masterpiece! Perfect capturing of movement and volume!
- filip.bl9 de agosto de 2025As good as the first time I saw it.
- tellum4 de diciembre de 2025If you are going to watch only one anime, this is it. The animation is shockingly good almost 40 years later. The influence on countless anime, movies, and video games is very clear.
- Pepe Cheerios21 de noviembre de 2025The facts it's all hand drawn. Omg 💦💦
- Cappy June7 de noviembre de 2025Classic anime film that leaves you scratching your head. High replay value too.
- Peter Bickford17 de agosto de 2025Groundbreaking Anime and hugely influential for sure. Definitely worth a close watch or two. That said, this American for one, would argue that it would be much improved by trimming about 30 minutes from the theatrical cut. Heck, were it possible, put together a 3.5 hour version for manga/anime completists; the current cut suffers pacing-wise from half-movie and half manga series.
- dascomputers138 de agosto de 2025It's a masterpiece. Cyberpunk 100%. Requires a second watch within 5 days to really set in all the hidden keys. Beautiful art.
- ShaveAss24 de julio de 2025While the storyline might be an old trope and the ending a little confusing for modern day viewers; even just appreciating the cultural icon that is Akira with its beautifully hand drawn animation is enough to keep even new fans satiated. Call this watch “homework” for new anime fans
