Ghost in the shell 2 Innocence

Damn!! I realy like the first part, a good ci-fi film that talk about at the classic topics of this genere, the repercusions of human cience in our lifes, the lost of humanity in the future etc....

This second part only works on a visual level, shows the best animated tecnics I 've seen by far. But the problem was the story, Oshii wanted to tell a story only with images, so the main plot it's completly secondary. Otherwise all the characters talks like they had studied philosophy at the University, always makin references to the Bible, Confuncio, Sartre....It works sometimes but most of times was shilly (Man two police man talkin' about the meaning of life during the investigation of a murder....).

It's not a bad film but it could be better if Oshii try to tell a story with "real" characters and left in a second plane all the philosophical implications.

6/10
