2071 A.D. Planet Mars. On the eve Halloween, a tanker explodes killing and injuring more than 500 people on a freeway in the crater of Alba City. The damage extends beyond one kilometer from the center of explosion. The use of biological or chemical weapon is heavily suspected. The reward is W300,000,000.00 (Mars currency) to find out the perpetrator. Short of funds as usual, the crew of the Bebop is lured into the investigation by the staggering amount of money they could possibly receive for being able to accurately point the blame. They start a search on their own, and so begins the adventures of the young slacker, Spike Spiegel, and his cohort, the ex-cop, Jet Black, leading their gang of bounty hunters on the trail of an elusive nemesis.

Kick-arse Anime

[Highly rated reviewer]

Stylish and downright cool. One of the best animes around: Well structured with developed characters, impressive martian city backdrops and some awesome action scenes.

Manga Forever

By Dark7777 (16 reviews) from Ayr , 08 Mar 2012

As a owner of the entire series i must say this feature length movie its just fxxxing awesome.

It is a must have for a fan of the series,

Although it just doesnt deliver the way the series does,

Dispite this you will find yourself being drawn into the atmosphere of this movie and the enjoyment it brings.

Bottom Line

As a fan you want this.

As a newbie..... hit or miss, Sadly

Do i own this movie and the series?

Your damn right and Im proud of it too

Bebop-a-lula, she’s my baby

By Robinski (165 reviews) from Glasgow , 12 Jan 2012

CB is certainly of its time, and the themes and animation have understandably been overtaken by slicker technology and techniques as time had gone by, but this has something a little different to offer, a sense of fun that is missing from a lot of anime, which is a bit serious and suffers because of it. Likeable characters with a good dynamic, but the story was a bit tired, even in 2001. Definitely worth viewing, not having seen the series I will be seeking it out.

1st Time seeing any Cowboy Bebop

By Benard (36 reviews) from Glasgow, Scotland , 15 May 2010

Despite that or maybe perhaps because of it I really enjoyed the film. It was mysterious enough not be annoying and yet fun enough not to be to high brow. The drawing style is great and the animation smooth. Characterization was well played but I'm not sure what the little girl was all about(perhaps a Japanese/Asian thing?), think she was there for comic relief. Answers to that welcome.

Good, but series is a lot better

By Lashay (2 reviews) from London , 08 Apr 2009

THIS REVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS Show review anywayHide

If you like Firefly/Serenity you should like Bebop (and the series). Many people consider this the major influence on Firefly and if you have seen both you will quickly realise why.
