#MarsExpress

[@epigoneofchaos4975]

So glad this movie is reaching english-speaking audiences ! I'm french, and animated movies other than kid stuff are a quite rare occurence in french cinema, and are sadly underperforming most of the times.

[@danielwhyatt3278]

I hope this will start a change for France as it is very much so now for the English-speaking world.

[@temest]

The director does adult animation though so I knew as soon as I saw his name

[@splashpit]

When I was cycle touring in France I’d look in the shop windows in little towns and especially book stores and I’d see the best sci-fi covers on children’s books ( young adult ) would love to know what the titles were.

[@Jesus_Zendejas]

I thought this was an anime until I saw the directors name on it

[@sitoudien9816]

How did it do in France?

[@user-bm5hq4ci5t]

Already seen it three times when it came out last year in France! It's a f*cking masterpiece, don't miss it. Tons of ideas per minutes, it never thinks the viewer is an idiot who needs to be explained everything he see, in fact the movie trust 100% the intelligence of his audience. And a solid police investigation story, with some philosophical elements built on it! Don't miss it!

[@SLICENSLASH]

Cool

[@vincentphilip9712]

Is it just like Ghost in The Shell (1997)?

[@viviengirard7501]

​@@vincentphilip9712: I'm not good in english so, please, copy my text and make the translation with a translator. Ce film d'animation est une synthèse de ce que la science-fiction a produit de mieux depuis des décennies... et une réflexion sur le transhumanisme, l'intelligence artificielle, avec une poésie et maestria qui donne au public, non pas ce qu'il veut, mais ce dont il a besoin pour le surprendre. Et pas avec un "deus ex machina", puisque c'est un cheminement intellectuel et pertinent qui amène à la conclusion parfaitement magistrale. Ce film est la preuve que, le plus important, réside dans la qualité de l'histoire. Le travail graphique paraît simple et potable, par rapport à une production Ghibli. Néanmoins, sa finalité transporte davantage pour qui garde l'esprit ouvert (pas forcément simple, mais je ne veux pas divulgâcher). Par ailleurs, et le plus important : ce film a une atmosphère ! Une atmosphère crédible car les détails les plus insignifiants ont été pensés, animés et amènent le spectateur à se transposer dans cet univers, facilitant à merveille la suspension d'incrédulité (taper "fossoyeur de films" et "suspension d'incrédulité" pour avoir une explication du concept). En bref, il s'agit, sans hésiter, de ce que l'animation française a produit de plus prestigieux, se rangeant désormais aux côtés des chefs d'œuvre, tels "planète interdite", "les maîtres du temps", etc. Un film qui fait renouer avec les grandes heures de la création artistique. Bon visionnage.

Atmosphere and story look really good. French sci-fi has always been pretty cool, especially with stuff like Crisis Jung, Immortal Ad Vitam, and Chrysalis. It's good to see more French sci-fi crop up becuase we're sorely in need of more of it.

[@user-bm5hq4ci5t]

Same crew than crisis jung! I highly recommand by the same team "Lastman", its a wonder, there is two season of it, and a comics!

[@Billy-bc8pk]

[@zerogrey3798]

Dude, you need to get out more.

[@philippegimenez2882]

Watched it in a local cinema in France; knew the director from Crisis Jung etc, and daaaaamn, the storytelling delivers. The theme (transhumanism) may not be new, but it's masterfully used. I'd say you got to see it more like a "noir" movie, where all the puzzle pieces fall into place in the end.

[@DensetsuVII]

Saw this at Animation is Film 2023 - immaculate craftsmanship, intense action - a worthy successor to the Blade Runner genre. Any animation/sci-fi fan needs to see this.

[@erob9446]

Man I love these "Ai vs human genre with a lovable Ai sidekick" genre

[@Eddafred]

Getting some serious Ergo Proxy vibes. Which is definitely a good thing.

[@frankcastillo2855]

I couldn't put my finger on it until you said it! That and Blade Runner Black Out.

[@matthewallen2273]

Loved that anime.

[@TroySpace]

Also Armitage III.

[@morph261]

ergo proxy mixed with ghost in the shell for sure. man ergo proxy was such a good series.

[@asandax6]

Ergo proxy was awesome. This trailer is reminding me of Metallic Rouge anime it also takes place on mars at first.

[@0008loser]

Its so frustrating that the only movie theater that's playing this movie "near me" IS 30 MILES AWAY

[@ekiti]

Ghost in the Shell having all these newcomers paying homage. ❤

[@Turd_Rocket]

Always funny how all the stuff Ghost in the Shell borrows/imitates/steals from Isaac Asimov, William Gibson, Blade Runner, and Neal Stephenson never gets acknowledged by its fans, but whenever anything vaguely cyberpunk comes out they're quick to call it an imitator of GitS. Very amusing. 😆😆

[@jackcarver5412]

@@Turd_Rocket Ghost in the shell caught more people's attention with all those ideas rolled into one creating something unique, which alot of popular sci-fi "stole" from

[@Turd_Rocket]

@@jackcarver5412 So let's move the goal posts from "originality" to "mass appeal" and "influence". You seriously want to claim Ghost in the Shell had more influence than Isaac Asimov, William Gibson, and Blade Runner? You're dreaming, stranger.

[@sonnywoods6846]

I was thinking Ghost in the shell too

[@sonnywoods6846]

@@Turd_Rocket I think it compared to Ghost in the shell because this is animation reminds everyone of it.

[@Battogami]

This film is going to fly under everyone's radar but this really is one of the Best Films of 2024!

[@michaelkeaton5394]

Saw it a few month back, it's such a good movie, very well paced with lots of details, it's a very dense story that makes you feel like it's a 2 hour movie when it really lasts only an hour and a half, it's very good

[@richardamoahgyimah1231]

Hope it is as good as, Pantheon!

[@JaniMelender]

Damn, too many people don't know about Pantheon. Shame. Re-watched it the other day, for the second time. :) Very good sci-fi.

[@aminamirkhani6377]

@@JaniMelender Nothing will ever be as good as Pantheon

[@dirtiestharry6551]

Watch other works of Jeremie Perin! This is his first shot at sci-fi, but his previous works speak for themselves. Lastman was what convinced me to watch and read french animations and comics. This movie had a limited release here in Korea last year and it was absolutely worth the trip to go out to the theatre that was actually playing this! Also loved Pantheon. Hope American animation can figure itself out soon.

[@markgrayson7428]

Pantheon is one of the best animated shows ever.

[@morvent9668]

I tried to watch it, but Amazon prime keeps removing it from their service

[@j377yb33n]

Missed this when it was in a local film festival, i'm glad it's getting a wider release!

[@1Hinto]

Local film festival just showed this and it was great, lots of cool and interesting ideas packed in there. Definitely one to watch!

[@helmort]

The most fascinating and beautiful sci-fi film and animation experiment of the past decade. Imagine combining all your favorite sci-fi movies like "The Matrix," "Terminator," "Blade Runner," and "Total Recall" into one, infused with the anime vibes of "Paprika" and "Ghost in the Shell," along with the creative brilliance of comic geniuses like Moebius and Jodorowsky. This incredible, unique masterpiece is what "Mars Express" delivers. Honestly, I haven't come across such an intriguing plot, captivating characters, and a well-balanced combination of humor, thriller, mystery, and science in one place for a long time. It's a must-watch movie, an absolute gem that I'm certain will become a cult classic for future generations. Immense, unparalleled, truly a 100% perfect movie. I loved it!

Very nice graphic interpretation of 80s and 90s design colors and line ediiting. I am not so sure about the story, but I will probably see it just for the graphics.

[@Fallen_blackrose]

This movie is great!!! I do like that it brings back the theme of ethics in technology, similar to ghost in the shell, animatrix: second renaissance, I robot. I like the use of 2d and 3d here I was almost convinced this was rotoscoped but im sure motion capture was used. The quality of the animation is so good, the facial expressions really tell us how the characters is feeling without telling us. the writing is superb, I didn’t feel like I was having my hand held and made me piece the story together. It has a serious tone but isn’t afraid to be funny. My only complaint is that it this movie isn’t advertised enough and it will definitely lose to a stupid Disney movie. 9/10 only because it felt rushed at times but that’s normal for a lot of film festival projects. Highly recommend
