Rivisto
Ghost in the Shell: in un prossimo futuro, tutta l'umanità è interconnessa in una immensa rete di comunicazione; i crimini si fanno più sofisticati ed un misterioso hacker noto come
"il signore dei pupazzi" viola sistemi altamente protetti usando ignari innocenti come esecutori materiali. Sulle sue tracce una unità speciale, la
sezione 9, composta principalmente di cyborg.
Intelligenza artificiale, disumanizzazione, evoluzione solitudine e pericoli derivanti da un eccesso di comunicazione; temi importanti approfonditi qui con cura ed intelligenza. Nel mezzo, non manca una buona quantità d'azione di ottimo livello.
Un film che ha fatto epoca, sia sotto l'aspetto tecnico che per i contenuti.
Domani dovrebbe uscire nelle sale
Ghost in the Shell: Innocence, sempre di
Mamoru Oshii; già disponibile in vendita da qualche tempo, non ho ancora avuto modo di vederlo e se posso andrò al cinema. Non fosse altro per versare l'obolo, nella speranza che simili prodotti arrivino più spesso in sala.
Voto: 10.
Ah:
Ghost in the Shell è disponibile in italiano in mezza dozzina di stupide edizioni diverse ("normale", "col gadget", "speciale", "con doppia mozzarella", etc. etc.) Consiglio vivamente la più economica...
Oshii, Mamoru
Data di nascita: 8 August 1951
Ultimi lavori: Trivia random: Trained, as a youth, in a Christian seminary for the priesthood in Japan. However, while he was there, something happened (an event or events that Oshii refuses to discuss publically) that shattered his religious leanings. He remains fascinated by Christianity and often alludes to the Bible in his films. There is some debate among fans of his films about whether "An Angel's Egg" is an allegory for his loss of faith.

Cast:Trama:Batô is a living cyborg. His whole body, even his arms and legs, are entirely man-made. What only remains are traces of his brain and the memories of a woman. In an era when the boundary between humans and machines has become infinitely vague, Humans have forgotten that they are humans. This is the debauchery of the lonesome ghost of a man, who nevertheless seeks to retain humanity. Innocence... Is what life is.
Trivia random: The opening sequence shows two cybernetic bodies angled so as to show two pairs of legs joined at the hip. This is a reference to the doll sculptures created by the German surrealist Hans Bellmer in the 1930's, and at one point in the film a book by Bellmer can be seen.
Citazione random: Bateau: [referring to the grenades thrown by the thug] Your little gifts exploded above my head. Even presuming they went off at their most lethal range, you think two grenades are going to off an armored cyborg? You insult me.

Trama:The year is 2029. The world has become intensively information oriented and humans are well-connected to the network. Crime has developed into a sophisticated stage by hacking into the interactive network. To prevent this, Section 9 is formed. These are cyborgs with incredible strengths and abilities that can access any network on Earth.
Trivia random: The first anime film to feature a popular international music artist (U2) in the soundtrack.
Citazione random: Puppet Master: A copy is just an identical image. There is the possibility that a single virus could destroy an entire set of systems and copies do not give rise to variety and originality. Life perpetuates itself through diversity and this includes the ability to sacrifice itself when necessary. Cells repeat the process of degeneration and regeneration until one day they die, obliterating an entire set of memory and information, only genes remain. Why continually repeat this cycle? Simply to survive by avoiding the weaknesses of an unchanging system.

Dimenticavo di dire che il titolo per le sale cinematografiche sarà "Ghost in the shell 2: l'attacco dei cyborg".
Osceno.
