Zavvi - The Home of Pop Culture
From Mamoru Oshii, the world-acclaimed director of Ghost in the Shell comes an award-winning story of an exciting but endless war with heroes too young to understand the meaning of their battles. A group of eternally young fighter pilots known as Kildren experience the sudden loss of innocence as they battle the enemy in astonishing dogfights above the clouds. With his only childhood memory consisting of intense flight training, the fearless teenage pilot Yuichi's dogfights coexist with his struggle to find his missing past. When his beautiful, young female commander Suito is reluctant to discuss the fate of the pilot that Yuichi is replacing - or the strangely perfect condition of that pilot's former aircraft - Yuichi's curiosity becomes heightened.

One of the best anime films you might not know about
From the director who made Ghost in the Shell, this is a very different kind of film. Since buying Sky Crawlers a week ago, I have watched it 3 times and still can't believe how good the graphics are. The aerial combat sequences are some of the best I've seen in any movie (animated or otherwise) and the lighting and backgrounds are absolutely stunning. I've not watched it 3 times for the pictures, though. This is an excellent anime that seems to have gone unnoticed for too long. Anyone who is a fan of anime, Manga and Japanimation should try to see this. It will not be what you were expecting. It certainly, wasn't what I was expecting!
