Read full review on AniList →A bell rings out across the nocturnal city. On darkened streets of brick buildings and cobblestone pavement walks a lone girl, egg concealed in her shirt, trying to navigate its labyrinthian structure. Her striped, pink sweater and dark red coat stand out in the bleak alleyways, while her droopy cou…
Read full review on AniList →--- # __~~~Meaning From Meaninglessness~~~__ --- Having gone through almost every lead-directed work in Mamoru Oshii’s catalog, I have developed an immense appreciation for his massive influence throughout the anime industry, as well as the unique vision he brings to every project he works on. The…
Read full review on AniList →This is a gorgeous, darkly beautiful work of film that’s probably the most surreal work that Oshii has made (helped by the fact that Yoshitaka Amano did much of the art for the film and co-wrote the story). It is the first film I’ve seen that I don’t feel qualified to analyze. Maybe it’s my autism…
Read full review on AniList →Blue tinted gothic buildings, abandoned landscape, and animal skeletons shattered everywhere; the post apocalyptic world presented in Mamoru Oshii's beautiful poetic work is the textbook model but creepier and more enigmatic than any.The wide landscape is mainly covered in pitch black darkness and i…
Read full review on AniList →Angel’s Egg, considering how common discussions surrounding this movie are on both Youtube and places where I discuss anime, I knew very little about it going in ,**** I didn't even know that the man existed. Having finished I am constantly thinking of the movie and what each and every part of it m…

Read full review on AniList →<p align= "justify">Mamoru Oshii's Angel's Egg (1985) is one of those anime movies that attaches with you lengthy after you've observed it and not in a "Wow, that was impressive!" sort of practice, but more like, "What did I just watch, and why am I even feeling about it?" It's eerie, tormenting, an…
Read full review on AniList →good visuals, painfully slow, you could argue that it's message is sophisticated, and not for bottom iq people, but it's so vague you can interpret it in many ways without ever knowing for sure what certain intentions were. Ex. it's about atheism and being free from religion, but what made sense in…
Read full review on AniList →_[Some spoilers ahead]_ _ Quiet, atmospheric to the inth degree, reserved, but also striking in doses (there's quite the blood-curdling scream that happens). Not to mention how gorgeously drawn every **** frame is, and the swelling music that accompanies the darker scenes. Sparing use of sound…
Read full review on AniList →Angel's Egg - это не совсем фильм. Это очень напоминает мне сон, где не важно, что происходит, какой в нём сюжет, а важно то, что ты ощущаешь внутри, какие эмоции испытываешь. Визуально это очень похоже на Bloodborne и Dark souls - готично, мрачно, пусто и замкнуто. По ощущениям сильно напоминает иг…
Read full review on AniList →Watching this in theatres was a surreal experience... (And the loudest) I LOVED the visuals which were so stylised and detailed I was in awe the entire time. In particular I really like how they weren't afraid to use all black for the shadows, making each scene feel all the more atmospheric and sus…
Read full review on AniList →<div align="justify">_Angel's Egg_ is an enigma. A vintage classic from director Mamoru Oshii, it is difficult to critique this film like your standard anime because, well, this is quite unlike anything else I've seen before. Arthouse to the bones, prepare to be perplexed. One of the things that ma…
Read full review on AniList →These are my thoughts after watching the film and discussing with some friends. Watching Angel's Egg, I never really processed it as a film. For sure, I can enjoy slow movies, art movies, movies rich with symbolism or impressionist depictions of non-literal scenes. But watching Angel's Egg, I was n…
Read full review on AniList →Angel’s Egg is an experimental film created by Yoshitaka Amano and directed by Mamoru Oshii. The film takes place in a strange abandoned world, where the skeletal remains of animals and murky rivers meet Neo-Gothic structures. The film centers on only two characters – they are, supposedly, the only…
Read full review on AniList →>When I was making [Angel's Egg], I was not so much idealistic, rather, I was ignorant and unconscious about film as a form of expression. Tenshi no Tamago is a beautiful movie, as we can all agree. It has astounding visuals and the songs were delightful to listen to. But that's all there is to it,…
