The film is equal parts action, philosophy, hard SF and the cry of repressed emotions, and yes it does often cause discomfort in a way horror fans will appreciate. It is a grown-up pleasure, a high-tech globe-trotting conspiracy thriller of the kind we could do with more of from anime.
— Hugh David, All The Anime
…the vibrant sci-fi epic looks magnificent on the big screen and when you combine the striking visuals with Itō’s enthralling futuristic novel the result is an animated film that should be seen by anyone who love science fiction.
— Joseph Friar, Victoria Advocate
...a profoundly unsettling but intriguing film that’s has more in common with big-budget Hollywood sci-fi films than with American animated features.
— Charles Solomon, Animation Scoop
