Rating: Summary: Please Turn it off!!! Review: Cant believe I sat through this. Maybe I was just in a bad mood that day? An old guy bonds with a unit designed to keep him healthy. They go out of control as it becomes his wife (due to programming), and then it is over. There was some humor, but enough to make up for the boredom.
Rating: Summary: what a waist of my time Review: Finally- a movie with an original plot! Very, very funny anime, definitely worth seeing.

Rating: Summary: Must see Anime Review: How far do we let technology take us? Should we consign our old people to an uncaring "home", or cherish their hard earned wisdom? This film brings up many questions that are hard to answer, and makes you think about old people and what they want and need. Oh, its funny too, and you have to love the ending (did you like Short Circuit 1 and 2?)
Rating: Summary: well... Review: I bought this movie on a whim, what i got was worth the money, but jus barely. the story in general was very funny, well planned and really makes you think about how we treat our elders (Not as people but as burdens) and the characters were very fun and you could easly relate to them however, there is little action and the animation is somewhat poor. I would recomend this movie to people who understand wit, sarcasm, and social satire. In other words, any one who thought that dumb and dumber was an excelent flim will hate this movie.
Rating: Summary: I had to do this... Review: I was scanning for a new anime when I saw RoujinZ AND the little bit of review from DJ-Crackhead (DJMETH) -which you can read for yourself. This anime, for me, is one of the funniest out there and I've seen most of them - warning; you have to pay attention! The dialog is fast and you can miss the acronyms ie-agedly challenged = A.C.H.E. and how about the -Special Homes In The Sun = ;-) - if you really enjoy anime, buy it! It's certainly worth renting at least once. ps - I wrote this to push an unfair review down the list, so, if you don't agree with me, that's fine, you can sound off about it to me at JJsWorld@kc.rr.com. I only ask you watch the film and judge for yourself.
Rating: Summary: One of my 10 favorite movies Review: I'm not that much of a fan of anime but this along with Sailor Moon are the only two animes that appeal interest to me.This is a great story about an old man Takazawa, being put into a bed, the Z-001 created by Terada, a big bully like man. The bed will do anything for Takazawa and his nurse Haruko (who looks like my sister) knows that Takazawa doesn't like being inside of it. Thus begins a wild ride as the bed later begins thinking it's Takazawa's wife and it goes bezerk across the city en route to the beach at Kamakura. This movie is also pretty funny especially the three old men who Haruko meets in the hospital. I certanly recommend it.
Rating: Summary: "Old Man" Z -- Original DVD Review (Not Special Edition) Review: INTRO: To start, I was kinda' dissapointed when I figured out this wasn't the DVD release with the extras on it. But then I found out that the "movie" itself wasn't too bad either. :) DVD: The DVD basically was easy enough to get to the movie so I can't say anything bad about the menus or anything. The basic - Jap/Eng audios are available, which is always a must for anime or foreign films. EXTRAS: There are none on this version of the DVD so I can't complain too much since its my own fault...by the Special Edition for extras. STORY/PLOT: This movie is very good. It almost (but not quite) beats Akira (also by Katsuhiro Otomo) in the fact that it mixes a lot of aspects from Akira and incorporates it into a PG-13 (at most) rated movie. Even though they say this movie is about PG-13, I could show this to a kid with no worries really. But then again, that's just me...The movie explains about taking care of the elderly and manages to mix in some great action as well. Its too strange to explain, so just see it to believe me. OVERALL: Overall, I really liked this movie/dvd. I recommend it to anyone that likes Anime, AKira, or works by Katsuhiro Otomo. I will still get the Special Edition for the extras, but this version (the one that started it for me) will always remain in my DVD library.
