A visually awesome, action-packed, and (somewhat) brainy piece of sci-fi entertainment.

A rare treat on the remake market with visuals that pre-millennial audiences thought unimaginable in its original format...

Ironically, with a moral so consumed by the preservation of humanity, Ghost in the Shell doesn’t give you much to think about. Read more

Not the equal of the original at all, but it retains enough of its visual identity to elevate a generic movie into a somewhat memorable one. Read more

A cool, slick scifi film that isn’t well directed but circumvents this by simply being a marvel to look at. Read more

While it cannot escape the whitewashing controversy, there are some things to enjoy about the film, even if it mostly is an uninvolving science fiction action film. Read more

Just an eye-candy work that can't sustain itself on its own characters or their story at hand. Read more

Visually appealing and full of uniqueness, this adaptation of Ghost in the Shell falls flat in some areas while succeeding in others.

I've seen Ghost in the Shell described elsewhere as visually stunning but emotionally vacuous. As Morgan Freeman might say, I agree with the second part. Read more

Go and watch the original anime film, its sequel or the spin-off Stand Alone Complex TV series instead.

I felt like there were many places that were disconnected in the film story and it wasn’t extremely easy to follow.

Ik heb mij enorm vermaakt van de verbluffende CGI-animaties, de geweldige actiescènes en het goede acteerwerk van Johansson.

Een leuke, kleurrijke en vermakelijke achtbaanrit, maar het ontbreekt de film aan enige karakterontwikkeling. Read more

Deze film doet veel goed in ieder geval, maar hopelijk is het voor velen een extra reden om het originele werk eens te bekijken. Read more
