A step up June 14, 2008 Dong Tran (Bloomfield, NJ United States) Appleseed Ex-Machina is certainly a step up from the first Appleseed. The visual effects are superb and the action sequences are terrific. However, the story line is a little weak and the love triangle was not resolved satisfactorily. All in all, Ex Machina is as solid as any live action movie.
Even better than the first one.... June 12, 2008 Gentile Joe (Salt Lake City, Utah) I'm a professional animator and a huge 3D tech-buff - and this movie fed both addictions ;) If you liked the first Appleseed, you'll love Ex Machina - the animation is better (still mocap - but better action), the characters are redesigned and look a little less stylized (but manage to avoid the "uncanny valley" effect. Set design, rendering, and effects overall are improved. The story, while not what I would call "amazing", is good, and is a little less "Japanese" in that there is a more clearly defined "good" and "evil" - so it's more palatable for those not familiar with hard-core Anime (i.e. most American viewers). Overall, this video is a visual feast filled with over-the-top action - a "must see" for Anime, Sci-Fi, and Action fans.
Awesome movie! June 10, 2008 Sandra Mcfarland (Irving, TX USA) Appleseed Ex Machina is one of the best anime movies ever! Excellent graphics, good plot, and wonderful voice acting (in English)! Don't miss it!
Good but not Great June 9, 2008 Samuel Guertin (Harrisburg, PA USA) Ex Machina is a pretty good, but not as good as the first Appleseed movie: Appleseed (Limited Collector's Edition). The CG animation is much improved though. The story line was not as good as it could have been, but the beautiful graphics make up for it. All-in-all though I'd have to say this movie is definitely worth buying for any anime fan, aspiring CG artist, or action movie lover.
Excellent and worth a couple viewings at least June 5, 2008 A. C. Durston (Grand Rapids, MI) br /My wife and I greatly enjoyed Ex Machina. Especially the visuals of the first scenes in the Cathedral. Spectacular imagery and a good story to boot. br /
