Ghost In The Shel (ESP/ENG)

It is not the first time I comment that I love going to the movies, I enjoy going to sit and watch a movie, I forget everything around me and savor to the fullest, I consider that time just mine and therefore, if I have to go alone to watch the movie, it's great because I do not want to be interrupted; as you can imagine, it's also logical that with the Covid-19 issue I haven't been able to enjoy this, but now with Netflix at home I've been able to watch a few movies and series that I've mostly enjoyed and that also allow me to have material to upload posts here on #HIVE, so that's great. My post today revolves around a sci-fi movie starring Scarlett Johansson.

The first thing I will say is that this is an adaptation of a manga, which was also taken to anime, which I have not read or seen, but now is on my to watch list, this adaptation or film version was not very well received by critics and the public, but in my opinion is a movie to entertain a while watching TV, since that is the ultimate purpose of movies and series, to entertain.

Now, the film begins with some people transporting a person apparently seriously injured, it is heard when they indicate that they perform a brain rescue to insert it into an artificial body, after a year the girl result of this experiment is on the roof of a building communicating by radio with the rest of his team, she is Major Mira Killian, a hybrid of cyborg and human unique in its kind, or so it was believed, who is part of an elite group of special operations called Section 9 in a futuristic Japan.

About the latter, it is interesting that futuristic Japan that we are shown as it retains parts of the current civilization, but with advances and part of decadence, there are implants or improvements of all kinds for humans, plus ladies of company both human and improved, ie a whole hodgepodge, plus robots that perform certain functions, it is an interesting composition.

Thus, this group led by Major Mira, goes into action to interrupt a robbery and hacking of information in a restaurant where a Geisha robot attacks one of those present to hack it, so the major appears on the scene as his team lacks a few minutes to reach the place, so after finishing with the event, the major observes the Geisha robot asking for help and then use the voice of a man who tells them that whoever helps Hanka robotics, will have consequences.

In the same way, the major in theory presents some strips, images and sounds, of a cat and a Kiosk in the traditional Japanese style, which appears in different places, thus to reach Hanka first for repairs and then get the information they are extracting from the Geisha, the major decides to enter his memory personally after realizing that there are a number of victims all related to the company that created it, so to dive into the memory of the Robot has its first contact with Kuze, an alleged cybernetic terrorist.

Thus, a series of events continue in which Mira discovers that she had been lied to about her past, as well as that the company that created her sees human lives as experiments and that Kuze was her old boyfriend and that both had died the day the police attacked the place where they were hiding along with others, which had been attacked because the reasons for their protests were not well seen.

All this results in Mira being persecuted, as well as her team, who trusted her completely and defend her even against the powerful company exposing a network of terrible crimes.

In short, it is a movie that keeps you glued to the screen as you want to know the truth behind everything raised, but I do not think you will see it again because it is not the best action or that's my opinion, but it does raise events that have been speculated about for a long time and who knows if they will happen in the future. I'm leaving now wishing that if you liked my publication you leave me a comment.
