Description:

Rife with long-lost siblings, supernatural mumbo-jumbo, and flashy pyrotechnics, Landlock surveys the familiar landscape of the anime fantasy epic. A vicious warlord in a mammoth spaceship ravages a peaceful farming planet in search of the "red eye," a boy whose lineage gives him incredible mystic powers over the wind. Inspired equally by the Sega video game and a certain blockbuster science fiction movie series, it boasts eye-catching designs inspired by Masumune Shirow of Ghost in the Shell (who worked on the original video game) and plenty of action. It's enough to keep the plot rolling, but the stock characters, derivative story, and often-clumsy animation largely restrict its interest to Japanese animation enthusiasts. Violence and brief (modest) nudity makes this unsuitable for kids younger than 13. --Sean Axmaker
