Thanks for the tip. I just checked and, yes, it was under the more tab on the Android phones as well.

I find some of the criticism about it being cold kind of stupid. The premise was about a human mind in a machine body. What did they expect was going to happen? That she would be a caring motherhood figure full of smiles an warm thoughts? Even the original film showed that, outwardly, she...

Yes, but I was posting using a phone and the edit button wasn't showing up, even if the page was refreshed.

That should have been Shirow, not Sharon.

They share the concept of a nasty CEO heading an amoral Corp. That is where the similarities end. I don't really want give too much away, but the film's story, to me, is like RoboCop played with seriousness of Blade Runner. One of the main characters comes right from the Manga, which I had...

Didn't notice. ;)

Wholesale copying of scenes, but the story looks like it has been changed from "are you still human when your body is entirely a machine?" to "Oh noes, I don't know who I am. I have a past and I must find myself". I watched the live-action shelling scene taken from the anime's opening credits...

I really hate this trend of remaking animated films in live action.
