Uninspired copy
Best part are purely visual, frame-for-frame copies of Oshii's animated movie.
Oshii uses nudity as a marker of psychological state; Johansson renounces leveraging her bountiful bosom and butts.
This should leave her acting talent apparent, but I seem to have missed it. Should have opted for 4k, I might have seen it.
Also, Johansson (and Binoche) add a discreet aura of girl-boss to their characters. Might be me, and maybe they just don't understand strength, and are thus unable to render a legitimately strong character.
Asbaek and Kitano (well, obviously) are solid in secondary roles.
The movie may not deserve of 0 by itself, but it's bad plagiarism, and the original exists. Watch the original.
