I'm a huge fan of anime, have been for well over a decade now, and I like a lot of different stuff from the accepted, mainstream greats (Cowboy Bebop, Fullmetal Alchemist) to the strictly entertainment-only fodder (Seitokai no Ichizon, Inuyasha). However, there are very few titles that I would actually recommend to my non-anime fan friends that I wouldn't feel embarrassed about showing them.

...so I have to take off one star.
I don't have much to say about this true anime classic that other reviewers have not already said. If you like anime, even if you are a recent convert, watch this movie. Like the best of Miyazaki's work, it's truly special.
It desperately deserves a new release from a proper widescreen master, but sadly, I doubt it will ever get one. I finally... more

Pros: The only Patlabor movie worth keeping, more action, Kanuka Klancy makes an appearance, the robots, and the storyline.

When I saw the annoucement of this re-issue I was very excited because OMG is my favourite anime series, and as I have the previous editions of the OVAs, I thought this collector's edition would a must have.
For instance, the price is expensive for a package that is not worthy enough, and three DVDs including pictures downloaded from internet, is very dissapointing.
This collector's... more

April 08, 2003
Usually it's a bad thing when a movie gets lost in its own minutae and details, but in the case of the third Patlabor, it actually compelled me to rewatch the movie three times -- just to make sure I was pulling together all of the subtleties. This type of fan vigilance wouldn't have happened if it weren't for all the strong virtues of this animation. For one, the pacing and mood of the entire piece... more

While younger anime audiences in the US may not know about this series, us older viewers will fondly remember UY as one of the first series to come to the US in both anime & manga formats. Unfortunately this was one of the series that didn't fare so well in those early & rough days of manga/anime, so unfortunately the manga series is now out of print. The anime series is luckily still in print... more
