009-1: End of the Beginning

Nudity, adult situations, gore, and lots of action. Good subtitles but no dub. Fight scenes are well done and acting is good. Not John Wick but a step up from the anime.

very good movie it was like the anime but more action witch was good.

The premise is that in the near future there is a new cold war between the Eastern bloc and the West. The action takes place in J-country (Japan obviously due to map) and it is reminiscent of the two Germanys during the first cold war. Both sides have presence in the country, vying for influence. Mayuko Iwasa plays agent 009-1, a cyborg operative for the agency allied to the western cause. Plenty of action and plot twists and about as believable as a Bond film. A good film but one never sees her secret weapons though it's made obvious that she has chest guns. Hot action heroine-check. Diabolical villain that wants to nuclear strike both sides-check. Agency that leaves it's agent without backup-check. Regenerated undead soldiers- wait what? The last plot point was really a surprise spoiler but the writers seemed to have needed something for the next to last battle before the two cyborgs fought their climatic battle. The film has good fx and is not low budget fare. 2013 film. Hopefully a sequel will be made soon. Beware Number Zero.

needs English audio

Excellent action.

Brilliant!!!

A movie I had to own.

It's what I wanted.

北米盤Blu-rayはリージョンフリー。 音声は2チャンネル、5.1チャンネルの日本語で英語字幕はオンオフ切替可能。英語吹替はありません。 映像特典は２分半ほどのイメージギャラリーだけ。 画質は日本盤DVDより良好で、岩佐真悠子の腋の毛穴や、長澤奈央の首筋の血管までクリアーに見えます笑

Saw the movie on Netflix. Really liked it.
