The best reason to watch this movie is for the beautifully-animated action scenes. The plot was fairly creative, but not too captivating, and probably could have benefited from either being a series or OVA. Also, the main villain is pretty much a plagiarized Akira character.

Nuh'un gemisini hikayesi. Muhteşem Istanbul görüntüleri ile. Kaçırılmaz.

Suffers from relying too heavily on the animation and action. Cool at times but it falls apart into something completely forgettable.

Pure, pointless vapidness in animated form. Money and animators' time was spent heavily on this sci-fi/Indiana Jones/Noah Ark as a spaceship-fish-alien technology hybrid tale, a narrative film with no characterisation, no sense of humour, intentional or not, and barely registering for me aside from generating boredom. The anti-American streak, including naming two evil minions after the atomic bombs dropped on Japan in WWII, is extremely trite rather than political rage.

The most memorable thing about this is the cyborgs Fat Man, who wields a Minigun for an arm, and Little Boy, who uses monofilament wire to decapitate his victims. The fight scene between Fat Man and Yu in his Artifical Muscle suit is great and ends with Yu pulling out a .50 caliber machine gun on the cyborg, but getting there is kind of a chore.

Cool animation and action sequences. Light on the whole "plot" and "character" department, unfortunately.

Some spectacular animation that was worthy of the hype, and an interesting premise. Falls apart in the third act.
