Review of Akira (1988) by Phi L — 27 Oct 2012
One of the greatest Anime features ever released. The story, animation, characters and writing are all extremely original and interesting. I found myself getting embroiled most in the interactions between the characters, particularly Kaneda and Tetsuo.
It's a very realistic depiction of the friend/enemy dynamic. The music and animation both come together to create an eerie sense of foreboding as the apocalypse approaches and the acting was exemplary for a dubbed anime.
One of the most influential films of its time, a must-see.
