After being brutally murdered in a subway station, a teen boy awakens to find himself resurrected by a strange computer named Gantz, and forced to fight a large force of invading aliens in Osaka. The problem with Gantz: this is for the ones who already know the backstory. Yet, it was not too bothersome to just guess some of the facts while ignoring the rest. The story itself does not make too much sense, but compared with the action movies the West can produce this one is hyper intelligent.<br/><br/>The good part: it is action. Pure action. Lately I keep watching action movies. I have no idea why. And get bored less than half an hour in the story. Most of the time even faster. With Gantz 0 I had a hard time pausing. The monsters are very creative. The animation is very good.<br/><br/>The ugly: women are still at the emotional level of a mature male who buys manga, meaning somewhere between 6 and 11 with a strong emphasis on sex. I was warned the movie contained sex, yet sex meant silly dependent young women with unusual big breasts that sometimes move (the breasts) who (the women) make what Japanese think when someone says "sexy noise"<br/><br/>Contact me with Questions, Comments or Suggestions ryitfork @ bitmail.ch As with other reviewers here I came across this little gem browsing Netflix.<br/><br/>I guess Gantz is pretty big in Japan for them to be able to make something this amazing. The animation and overall design quality is simply incredible. <br/><br/>Any mature anime fan will love this regardless of knowing the backstory.<br/><br/>The main reason I'm "reviewing" this title is because I see many people complaining about the laughable dialogue. To circumvent this, watch it in it's original Japanese language with subtitles!
