Silent Mobius: The Motion Picture
A**E
Solid movie if you enjoyed the comic book series. Not the original dub.
First off, Let me say that I enjoyed the manga series as well as the animated series for this. One of the reasons I purchased this is I have been looking for the Streamline pictures dub of this particular film. I normally prefer subtitled, but that dub still resonates with me. This is not that same job. I'm not saying it's bad, I am merely letting you know weight is different. I will admit I do prefer the ongoing series which in my view did a better job of character development, but that's not exactly a fair statement. After all, if you have 14 or 24 episodes takes for a character? That's always going to be better all things being equal.If you are or were a fan of the series, I would recommend picking this up.

Not really Cyberpunk, not really horror, not really SF...
Not as well-known over here as many series, 'Silent Moebius' has a dedicated fan following all its own. Being the story of a group of female detectives in a near-future, 'Blade Runner'-influenced (though not nearly as much as 'Bubblegum Crisis') Tokyo whose job is dealing with crimes and incidents of supernatural origin. Like many manga-based films of the era, SM:TMP assumes the viewer has at least a basic knowledge of the characters and situations going into the film. Set consists of the film on one disk (including the film's theatrical trailers), and the film score on the second. A nicely-illustrated tin box replaces the standard DVD case for the package. The translation of the dialogue--in subtitles or voice--is a considerably improvement over the first release in the 1990s. good value, great story, well told in the manga's distinctive style.

Old school and affordable!
I love this anime and can't wait for it to be released onto Blu-ray. It has an interesting story and cult concepts that I find intriguing has an occultist. Though some of it is in the realm of fantasy the incantation and symbolism of Katsumi's magic is fascinating. Plus the mixture of different philosophies, mysticism, and science. I would love to own the 2nd movie but I really want to get them both on Blu-ray.

a classic, for fans
I've been a big Mobius fan for quite a while, and I had watched the show, and read most of the comics before seeing the first film. Keeping it pretty short, it's a pretty cool movie. I really don't have too much to say on it, other than that it's a good film, and fans should really enjoy it.

Amazon must be combining reviews again, because mine was in a standard plastic case, and didn't include the soundtrack.

特典は何もないけれど
映像はノイズも目立たず綺麗ですね。米国版なのでリージョン1、NTSC形式で紙ベースの特典は一切なし。DVDが一枚入っているだけです。でもピクチャーレーベルでした。総監督が菊池道隆さんで原作者が自ら映像化されたのですね。最近ダブルネームであることを知りました。そして出渕裕さんも協力、ヤマト2199では逆にEDイラストを書いていたので二人は仲が良いようですね。
