Movie: Paprika (Kon Satoshi, Japan , 2006 - 90 ‘ ) imdb link

Date: Feb 2, 2007

Rating: ★★★★☆ (anime eye candy)

Plot: A machine that helps patients with psychiatric illnesses through their dreams, is stolen whilst still being in development phase. Who stole the machine? How harmful can it be if used for less humane reasons?

Cast: skippable..

Visuals: Well detailed, sometimes photo-realistic (they used photos for some of the city landscape scenes) and almost always gorgeous artwork.

Conclusion: The plot can be bit confusing sometimes, the dreams-within-dreams thing kinda gets to you. The discovering the culprits and the climactic confrontation that follows, is standard story-telling work. The weirdness is typical sci-fi anime. It’s the visuals (as usual) that support the movie, love it.
