Alita: Battle Angel is a very good movie. Very interesting mix of good, believable CGI and "real world" footage. Some things, mainly regarding story progression and steering, felt forced. Still, overall very good.

Alita: Battle Angel packs in a lot, sometimes maybe a bit too much, but it’s still a fun ride, especially if you love action and top-notch special effects. The movie’s a bit on the long side, and you can feel it at times, but the world James Cameron built is so detailed that the extra scenes actually add to the experience rather than taking away from it. It’s cool to see Cameron and Rodriguez work together, with Cameron handling the big-picture world-building and Rodriguez directing with his own high-energy style. Rosa Salazar as Alita does a great job. She gives the character life and makes you care about her, even when the plot feels a bit thin. The story doesn’t quite match the level of the visuals and editing, which is a bit of a letdown because the world itself is so well-crafted. Still, Alita’s got some powerful moments—like when she says, “I do not stand by in the presence of evil!” That line alone sums up her courage and spirit. In the end, while Alita has its flaws, it’s definitely enjoyable. The action and effects make it worth watching, and Salazar’s performance keeps you hooked. It might not be a perfect film, but it’s got heart, and I really enjoyed it.

Yeah, I didn't read the Manga. I was never a manga fan, but now that comic books are going the way they are... Manga is starting to look pretty good isn't it? Anyway, it seems like a lot of the bad reviews are... political. You know, the, "people only like this because they are (insert woke insult)." and that's really not fair. I'll go out there and admit that Alita's eyes kind of freaked me out. Too realistic, too cartoony eyes, and that left me with an unsettling feeling. It was creepy. It was creepy in the same relative way the Elves on the Shelves are creepy. But the story comes fast and hard and leaves you very satisfied in the end. It kind of felt like Princess Monanoke kind of ending. And that is all with a story about someone that in really pretty innocent in a world that is really pretty horrific, and that is also a fun thing to watch. But, yeah, her eyes kind of freaked me out. Aside from that, it was a totally enjoyable film. Give it a shot and ignore the politics.

**One not too terrible spoiler** This movie was full of potential. The beginning of the movie was fantastic, full of amazing James Cameronesque world building and attention to detail. Where the movie starts to go down hill is more of a suprise hole in the side walk that this movie fell down, because you don't see it coming. Up to and including the bar fight, the movie was amazing. RIGHT afterward the B team entered the cutting room floor, characters started doing things that went against their motivation, and honestly the least bit of work would have solved that, but none was put forward. It was like that for the entire last half of the movie. I DO hope there is a sequel, I would like to see that. I think it would be better.

**Alita: Battle Angel** is an awesome movie. It has great action, an interesting plot, lovable characters, amazing acting by Rosa Salazar and overall it's a wonderful and fun film. It includes some of the best CGI ever created in film. Without a doubt, it is the best manga/anime adaption by Hollywood. I highly recommend this movie. Definitely 10 out of 10.

Definitely a Robert Rodriguez movie, but a Robert Rodriguez movie made with that James Cameron money. The world building was incredible. Rosa Salazar, Christophe Waltz, and the rest of the cast do a great job. The technical wizardry, not just with the visual effects but the use of 3-D and IMAX was nothing short of dazzling. The action is exhilarating. I'll also take Motorball over podracing or Quidditch any day. Yes there are problems with the script because James Cameron has never been a strong writer. There is also way too much sequel baiting for my taste. But for a movie like this to come out in a time when all the profitable IPs are getting tedious, Alita Battle Angel was refreshing and tons of fun. Easily the best live action anime film adaptation to date and a kick ass sensory overload. James Cameron, I would rather you devote time to make more Battle Angel and less Avatar.
