Episode 278 - Ghost in the Shell

from In The Queue - Film Conversations with Andrew and Phil · host Andrew and Phil

Even ScarJo can't save this dull thud of a thriller. Whitewashing or no, GITS suffers other fatal flaws like slow pacing, uninvolving action and pointless visual noise. Fans of the original 1995 anime (like Andrew, for instance) will be disappointed at this lackluster treatment of a beloved story that delighted fans of cyberpunk and sci-fi. Clearly, BLADE RUNNER was an influence on the aesthetic choices that went into imagining this futuristic city, but it's an empty homage that takes the film straight to Nowheresville.
