The film is a visual gem, each set piece rendered with an impeccable level of polish and attention that does justice to Nihei’s penchant skill for depicting monolithic dimensions. Read full review

The film’s world-building is more engaging than its plotting, which skews toward the generic as the embattled good guys set out on their last-ditch effort to save what remains of humanity; there’s a sense, while watching Blame!, that there are more interesting stories on the fringes of this tribal future.

Ante esto, el que hizo Ajin y Shidonia no Kishi, se mostró interesado ante esta propuesta y decidió ponerse a manos a la obra junto a Netflix. Hmmm, y la pelicula de Blame en sí resulta, disfrutable, pero solamente para un publico especifico de espectadores, ya que la obra es tremendamente lenta, a pesar de ser una trama de simple de supervivencia, ademas, a unos cuantos puede que nos les guste la animación, ya que hay posiciones de cámara en que parecía que los frames corrieran más lentos si acercas a los personajes, ¿Que pasa ahí?

Esto va más a los que sean fanáticos de lo post-apocalíptico con cyberpunk, y los que hayan leído el manga y hayan gustado de ello, ya que aquí te muestran una historia simple, pero que termina intrigando a la persona por saber más del mundo.… Expand

This movie like most anime suffers from exposition heavy discussion. This discussions are not a negative thing, but they are when there's nothing interesting happening while the exposition is being told. That's the case here, lots of walking and talking. The movie gets good near the end, there is no connection with some of the characters, but I did felt worried about Killy. Killy's character is silent but yet interesting. The animation looks good, sometimes it doesn't work and it's hard to watch. Overall, just a good anime film. If you don't tend to watch anime films, I won't recommend this one. If you do, give it a try.… Expand

Some nice scenery and plot elements, but the character drama and the action are mediocre at best. And the design of the main type of "enemy drone" always attacking them is stupid, it makes no sense in any way.

The animation and the scenery design, and the lightining work are amazing (even with the monsters, the Netsphere hunters or Safeguards with poor modelings), I'm not a fan of Cell-Shaded-CGI animation, however the story for this film - wich is based and blended on the Nihei Tsutomu's manga -The animation and the scenery design, and the lightining work are amazing (even with the monsters, the Netsphere hunters or Safeguards with poor modelings), I'm not a fan of Cell-Shaded-CGI animation, however the story for this film - wich is based and blended on the Nihei Tsutomu's manga - is too weak, messed up and cliché. The characters have nothing to tell, or personality whatsover, if you did not read the manga you wouldn't have any empathy for them. And the dark tone and the crazyness of the original were translated to this basic "silent cowboy saving a young pretty girl and her little town from the bad guys story" something like the Magnificent 7 or Samurai 7. At the end, you'll find out that they didin't take any risk by inserting almost none of the dark and wierd aspects of the manga on doing the script. Meh.
Stick with the manga instead, that is so MUCH better.… Expand

Una adaptacion que se veia prometedora y que para ser CGI logra bien el ambiente, pero en cuanto a narracion es muy pobre, que luego de un buen comienzo se diluye contando y mostrando lo mas aburrido y que no queremos ver de este mundo.

Y aunque lo que cuenta de forma tan soza logra establecerte las bases de esta historia no se avanza mas alla de la premisa dejandote incluso con una accion muy floja que se queda corta. Aunque no llega a ser basura como la adaptacion de Gantz, da pena que todo lo bueno esta ahi, pero de la forma mas aburrida.… Expand
