Too much about the plot just didn't add up, the writing was bad, some of the scenes were cringey and awkward,

n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Reading some of the rave reviews on here I watched this movie with anticipation. The starting sequence was good with its action but unfortunately that is the best part of the movie. What i liked about the movie was its plot and storyline. Its like Bladerunner meeting resident evil (except with androids instead of zombies). It was interesting even though the ending - the action that triggered it - was weak and derivative. But on the whole the concept was good. What I disliked was the execution. The animation isn't very good. Yes it looks beautiful except for the characters. The characters basically look like those in-game cut scenes you find in video games. The characters especially their expressions are not well done at all. The hair are blocky solid strands. The characters' facial expression are stony even when it came to cries of anguish...stony expression with mouth open. It may be a small thing to some but for me it takes away from the movie. Entire time I felt like I was watching a video game.

There are different elements in this film that simply clash with each other. There is the 3D animation that brings some very cool effects, but then almost no facial expression. Watching the film is like waiting for an in game animation to end so you can continue playing. Then there are the ideas in the film, that are very bold, but they are not really backed by a political and technological realism. The elite team that starts the film comes with these cool robotic suits, but they serve almost no purpose in the story. And I could go on and on.The thing is that I liked the film, but it was like a jagged experience (pun intended) since there were great scenes, then really bad ones, then some great again, then some bad ones again. All ups and downs. When I think of this movie compared with others, what comes in my mind is Final Fantasy. The same weird immersion in a 3D world, but not really a strong emotional experience.Bottom line: better than most, could have been better. Nice sci-fi, all 3D CGI.

i have to say,this is one original movie.at least i haven' seen anything like it.the GC animation is stunning,very detailed and clear.the action sequences are first rate.the dialogue was good as well.there aren't too many dead spots in this particular production.and i thought the voice casting was superb,particularly for the characters of Vexille and Marie.the general storyline is original,though it may incorporate elements from other films into it.ti's basically science fiction tale that takes place in the next fifty plus tears or so.it's one interesting what if scenario.but one of the neatest thing about this particular movie are the characters and concepts they came up with.for me Vexille is an 8/10

When I first came across this movie online I checked out the plot synopsis on here and decided to give it a look. I was expecting lots of fighting in the future style sci-fi, but instead found this to be an incredible and profound film which has yet to leave my mind.First off, the special effects are amazing. There were many scenes throughout this film that blew me away. The camera angles, choreography, and the atypical soundtrack were all done and chosen impeccably. There is a particular action sequence in this film which had me riveted to my seat and completely engrossed to my screen.A lot of people have said that the dialogue is pretty dry (they're right), but I found that the depth of this story is almost completely revealed through the images on the screen than through the narration. As a result, the limited dialogue allows you to insert many of your own emotions into the film making it a very unique and personal experience.Overall, the film is an enthralling story of survival and salvation in a very bleak and downright frightening future. I guarantee this movie will be on your mind after your done with it and many of you will probably end up revisiting it.A must see. 8/10.
