    Jin-Roh. How good?

    Going to see this movie @ the cinemas on the weekend and have high hopes for it.

    Story: Ten years after the end of World War Two, Fuse, an anti-terrorism policeman is suspended from service after failing to shoot a young female suicide bomber during an operation. When he tries to gather some information about her following her death, he meets and befriends her sister. Both are dragged into rivalries between the administration of police and counter terrorism commando unit 'Jin Roh' (Human Wolves).

    The crew making this movie did some exellent work in the past to create some of the best anime like Ghost In The Shell, Patlabor trilogy & series and Akira.

    Anyway seen this movie? Your thoughts?
    Misha... i want ur thoughts on it plz.
    btw... IMdb details

    Sounds very cool! Kinda like that game 'Wolfenstine', in a way.

    Is it out on video or something? Or just coming out to theaters?

    you're so lucky. they don't play anime in theaters here in the US very often. it looks interesting, but hopefully it will be better than ghost in the shell.

    Ya got probs with GitS? Why? It's an almost perfect flick.

    And regarding Jin-Roh: I can't add much more as I have said before ... it's a very intense and athmospheric anime. Very well drawn ... very violent sometimes. If ya got the chance to catch it in a theatre ... Perfect!... Go for it .. ya won't be disappointed!

    no it was okay, just thought it was a bit of a let down after all the hype before it came out. but i guess that's what hype does.
