Line Break

I rarely fall asleep during movies, especially anime. This is what happened when I rented Parasite Dolls on the PSN.

The reason I rented this flick in the first place is because the people behind Perfect Blue created Parasite Dolls. Perfect Blue is great, innovative, and thought provoking, Parasite Dolls is the hyper opposite. The characters are pretty generic as well as the plot. The anime takes place in the future where Androids and humans co exists, the robots are called “BOOMERS”. Sometimes boomers go bad, that’s where this movie picks up, we are transported to a secret branch of the government to deal with these rouge and extremely dangerous robots.

The movie attempts and ultimately fails in its portrayal of human and robot concept, you know the whole robots are created to be used as tools for humans, what is human and all that jazz. These are not old concepts and themes for anime and Parasite Doll did not deliver. This movie attempts to be sexually aggressive, and there are some disturbing images of some robot related murders, but nothing too shocking if you are hyper desensitized like myself.  Ultimately this anime was a total snooze fest.
