The movie leans towards the drama side than action, but I still enjoyed the film. I thought at times the movies was hard to follow cause I kept on getting some characters in the movie mixed up. I need to watch this one again in order to give a definite opinion about the movie.
So expect it to be like Avalon? That was my impression of it anyway.

I haven't seen Avalon, so I can't really comment on that.

Before I actually watched Casshern, I remembered someone saying that this movie is not action packed like the trailer makes it out to be. I took that into consideration because if I believed all the hype from the trailer about how cool this sci-fi-action movie was going to be, I would have been terribly disappointed. I don't know about the rest of you, but if a movie gets hyped a certain way, and it turns out what I least expected, in most cases this willtotally ruin the movie for me.

I saw Casshern when I was in Japan and when I asked the ticket girl what kind of movie it was they said, action, sci-fi, thriller, drama, love story. ... Which i would easily put it in all those categories. Either way I enjoyed the movie a lot.

Any update on this? I can't seem to find any release dates.

Curious, if I search on the catalog id for Casshern, da-452, I get a different link than the one posted at the beginning of this thread. Is this a single disc release? Release dates are the same. This one is cheaper.

Amazon.co.jp link

Any ideas?

I read somewhere that Casshern will come out in an "ultimate" edition which is a 2 or 3 disc set (depending on where you look), I'm assuming a 2 disc set with a making-of featurette and interviews with the prinicpals.

Hopefully this film isn't as chump story as Sky Captain, and the action is more fluid than that film's.
