Review of Space Pirate Captain Harlock (2013) by Brian W — 04 Mar 2015

Classic anime revisited! Space Pirate Captain Harlock (Albator to all your frenchies out there) makes his way into full length CG animated feature with style. The look of the film is gorgeous and unlike some others that have taken this step, the story is pretty straight forward and understandable. Though there are nods to fans of Harlock, newcomers can watch without having to know the history, characters, etc. previously.

Of course, the story of Captain Harlock does make for quite a bit of faith as there are plenty of things that might not make much sense morally, physically, and such but that is quite common in anime circles.

My only real beef with this film is that... there simply wasn't enough of it. Harlock Space Pirate left me wanting more.

When's the next feature???
