    Highly enjoyable sci fi

    Any one who has seen Japnese cinema will know it has been 'borrowed' by Hollywood for a long time. So, the worm has turned - and they do a great job. The main plot is very similar to the "Terminator". The action (and action music) is very like "The Matrix". There's some "Independence Day" there and a bit of "Blade". But I like those films anyway so I had no problem. It does feel I need to over explain. But instead of pretending it is 100% original they just go for it. Some of their own stamps of style are great. Now, it's no classic, but it is tremendous fun. If you like sci fi give a go. I'm sure you will love it.
