Cowboy Bebop: The Movie : 3 of 5
6.27.2004 9:37 AM \| Link	I hadn't seen Cowboy Bebop in almost a year, since I finished watching the complete anime series on DVD. This title finally came to the top of my huge Netflix queue, so I got to enjoy this movie recently. It was awesome to see these characters again - I guess the story would have to take place somewhere in the middle of the series, since all of the main characters (Spike, Jet, Faye, and Ed) are all together. The plot involves a kind of bio-terrorist who was originally a guinea-pig in the military stationed on Mars, but all you really need to know is that the action sequences are great and all of them include fantastic music, which was always my favorite part of the show (besides Spike's cool, laid-back style and Faye's skimpy outfit). Ed is as bizarre as usual, and generally stays in the background, as does Jet, but Spike and Faye get the limelight. I thought the air battle between Spike and the military craft was just fantastic, but the opening titles were even better - they appear over some incredible monochrome animation of folks in the city, with excellent backgrounds and real emotion on the faces of people in all walks of life. It's details like this that make Cowboy Bebop a great show, and a great movie! Labels: dvds
