Ghost in the Shell, created by Japanese manga artist Masamune Shirow, is set in a future Japan. In the future society, the whole world will be connected by a huge information network, and all kinds of human tissues and organs can be artificially created. Biochemical people, bionic people, and humans coexist on the earth, and cannot be identified with the naked eye alone. Many people's bodies have ports to connect to the Internet (at the back of the neck), and the body becomes purely a container for the human soul. Against this background, criminal activities have also taken new trends.

The three-star and a half, the spirit of spirit is loyal to the 95 theater version, using the advantages of live performances, trying to add emotional dimension. In addition to maintaining high visual fidelity, there are several scenes that are exactly the same as the 95 version. We are also discussing the relationship and differences between humans and machines, but in order to cater to Western audiences, some Eastern philosophies are also biased towards Western thinking. This is a commercial compromise. But among the Japanese adaptations of Hollywood, it is still a surprise that deserves encouragement.

It was originally impossible to condense a work with complicated settings, stories and depth of meaning into a two-hour commercial film. However, I think the director clearly understands this point. He did not condense it in a self-righteous manner. Instead, he took a coherent and simple version of the story seriously. Coupled with excellent special effects, no matter what the truth is, there will always be 3 stars. . If the adaptation requires effort, one more star is given to the director's steadfastness.

Major: They like you because you feed them.
Batou: You got no heart.
