Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Gantz: o has an amazing animation sometimes feels real, but the plot of the film is a bit confusing for new gantz viewers and for those who have read or seen the anime with the same name could feel out of place the story due to the changes made to convert gantz as a standalone film, compared to the original work in the film the protagonist lacks an objective and this makes it difficult to sympathize with him.

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.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.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"Contact me with Questions, Comments or Suggestions ryitfork @ bitmail.ch

The actions scenes are really good and the science fiction story holds you from the very beginning. The animations are top notch and have a totally unique style, much different from what we are used to see in Pixar movies. If you like science fiction you should watch it right now.

:this is less of a review and more of just a ramble of what was in my head at the time I finished watching: As I would consider myself more a member of the "uninitiated" as far as anime is concerned, I really don't. I troll Netflix for the occasional anime. If it's available in English, I give it a shot. Many fail to hold my attention, this one did not. If you want a rundown of what it's about, others covered that just fine. But I'm here as someone who doesn't watch anime in it's native language with subtitles because it's "more authentic". Honestly, I'm a bored American who mostly fancies anime in the "ecchi" category for the laughs. I just spent 20 minutes cruising IMDb because I had no idea Gantz had a history. Never heard of it before. I'll admit, I'm still kinda confused. But I was entertained. I actually watched it. Most stuff that I put on Netflix is mostly to occupy the ADD side of my brain while I do something else. Gantz:O had my full attention and I'm gonna say that it's worth yours as well. Unless you're a purist, but this review isn't for you. I will say, I hope they do more of these in the 3DCG in the future. :ramble over:
