Version française sur CinéFamiz.
Too many changes: a diminished villain (who became paper-flat), an interesting variation on Raô, an added character that happens to be useless far too often (a missed occasion).
Despite the number of promised films for this new adaptation, the story is so compressed that it relies on many, many talks. Still not as bad as it could be in this department. May interest people who already know the original, at the cost of losing newcomers.
A fabulous look (original style sublimed by Araki's rendering), but a bit too stilted.
A nice piece of post-apocalyptic action.
Score: 7/10
Plaisir: 5/5
I would still advise beginners to try starting with the manga.
