Ghost in the Shell is good if you are in the mood for a atmospheric 90s sci-fi mood piece. It can be boring. It is not very actiony. It is really just about beings questioning life in a tech heavy future. In so much that the premise I would say is cyborg cop comes across case that makes her question things, but not in a real over the top dramatic way.
It’s a beautiful movie. Well directed and looks great, but don’t expect some amazing story. I feel like when 90s fans described it as adult, what they really should have meant is that it takes itself pretty seriously.
I grew up on it so I’m bias.
The Stand Alone Complex TV shows are more easily approachable cyborg cop dramas and really good.
Can’t speak to Arise. Innocence is too boring for me.
