“A masterful creation of what is a motheru0026#39;s love. This movie carries action and drama from the viewpoints of struggling people. Time flies by quickly in the plot, but the ends justifies everything, so on that note, yes, it has a complete ending that fullfills satisfaction. Definitely a good classic or child-memory lane movie to watch. Good artwork and music, with only one bad CGI (within anime?) scene.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eNow to the negatives, which should not be a deterrent to watching, but understand why itu0026#39;s not the best:n1. Theme of the movie is motherhood, but what you ended up with is teen pregnancy… yeah. What some people strongly feel is not empathy but pity.n2. A lot of character brush-offs. Each character development is very limited, scenes are spread to multiple characters, meaning there is no main character focus on.n3. Lots of unknown background. The story has a strong history, which is the action and adventure side, but what the movie focused on is the side-story of Maquila.n4. Action and drama not a good mix. Action fans want a little drama, but drama fans wonu0026#39;t appreciate action… wierd huh?u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eFinal note:n7/10 – itu0026#39;s like a Shakespeareu0026#39;s play/book. You u0026quot;canu0026quot; or u0026quot;have tou0026quot; emphasize on each and every action in order to enjoy the work… like a painted art. If you watch it, you didnu0026#39;t waste your time. If you didnu0026#39;t watch it, youu0026#39;re not missing out on anything.”
