| Movie Description Set in October of 2002, THE RETURNER chronicles the last days before an apocalyptic interstellar war, and the two unlikely heroes who try to prevent the inevitable from happening. Sent back in time, Milly (Anne Suzuki) has the dubious honor of tracking down a fallen spaceship and assassinating the alien inside. As luck would have it, she lands in the middle of a gunfight between her soon-to-be accomplice Miyamoto (Takeshi Kaneshiro), a vengeful rock-n-roll vigilante, and Mizoguchi (Goro Kishitani), the unconscionable villain played with animated savvy. As Milly and Miyamoto befriend one another, stories from Miyamoto's troubled past emerge as well as from Milly's future--so it seems Milly is not only there to save the world from war, she's also come to rescue Miyamoto from his childhood pain. The sci-fi effects are dazzling, and the camera often spins around the action, heightening the sense of anxiety in the film. The plot keeps Mizoguchi in the mix when he greedily pilfers the alien from a military science lab, setting up the ultimate conflict on his oil-rig headquarters. So ironically, Milly realizes her mission is no longer to save the world from the warmongering aliens, but from humans driven by avarice.

Report this review  Definitely see this movieReview created: 01/22/07 by: 3 of 3 people found this review helpful. This is definitely a movie worth seeing if you're a sci-fi fan. While the boxart might cause you to believe that this is another clone of The Matrix or something, this is definitely a unique, time-traveling storyline that you haven't seen before. This action movie is a definite thrill ride, and the CGI use is not over the top. The English dubbing is pretty good in this movie, so I actually prefer that over watching in Japanese with English subtitles. Review ID: 10000000002793607 Was this review helpful?
