#REVIEW: “ALITA: BATTLE ANGEL”

Review by Jonathan Godfrey for Mr. Will Wong Anime adaptations seem to fluster fans and annoy outsiders. Alita: Battle Angel seeks to subvert this trend. James Cameron began working on Alita shortly after Titanic, but paused in his progress to focus on Avatar. In time, Robert Rodriguez picked it up and saw it through to the end. The Film’s been built and billed as an IMAX experience, and this is not simply an allusion to the titular character’s oversized eyes. No, this is a visual feast ... Read more
