Summary:
The story unfolds in another 'possible' modern age. The main characters are youngsters called "Kildren", who are destined to live eternally in their adolescence. The Kildren are conscious that every day could be the last, because they fight a "war as entertainment" organized and operated by adults. But as they embrace the reality they are faced with, they live their day-to-day lives to the full.
One the rare kind of films thats made to make you think first and entertain second.
Now this is a strange one, and I can sympathise with the previous comments and points made but disagree with there conclusion.
The Animation is top notch, I love the design even if it seems a little strange at first. and I honestly don't think this film would work without it. same with the sounds and music when its there, while others have complained about the lack of sound I feel its this ecanomical use of it that really draws you in to the deep realitys (read more)

As for the story I'd say this is not something to put on for a quick burst of fun. That said it is enjoyable in its own way while hard to get into I've not found it as impenitrable as other revews sugest, and if you keep your eyes and ears open you get to know whats happening.
This is a movie to be taken as a whole though while your focuse on two main charicters its the over all plot that is the star the people in it are just pupets in more ways than one.
To sum up this is not for casual watching however it still rates on my top list of movies next to and comparable to Schindler's List, I know this is a strange one to put it up agains but this movie is about makeing you think, and about getting a message / feeling across.
I would highly recomend, looks stuning and stands out as something uniqe. (show less)
