Movie Description
THE WINGS OF HONNEAMISE, one of the best animated films ever made (it won three separate best animated picture prizes in 1987), is an epic tale set in an alternate universe, somewhat similar to our own. In it, human civilization is on the verge of travelling into space, though no one is taking any real serious steps to get there, and The Royal Space Force is no exception. More a government publicity stunt than a viable space program, its recruits are often ridiculed and demeaned by both the public and the government. However, when one recruit, Shiro Lhadatt, meets a young woman who encourages him to kick-start the program, he organizes a haphazard team of scientists and pilots who race to be the first into space.

"...Great-looking....A boldly sketched vision of the future in a realistic style..."
Los Angeles Times - Kevin Thomas (03/09/1995)

"...A visually sensational two-hour extravaganza....One of the pleasures of the film is simply enjoying Yamaga's visual imagination..."
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert (05/12/1995)

    Review created: 11/05/07
    5 of 5 people found this review helpful.

    This wonderfully animated feature length movie follows our hero as he realizes his dream to be an astronaut. In this alternate universe, this pre-space society is torn with conflict and the Royal Space Force is more of a propaganda tool than a group being taken seriously. Then, right when they actually are in position to realize their dream, things go wrong and everything is at risk.

    This movie isn't what I would call "action packed", in fact it would make a great regular movie. There are some scenes of war and some action sequences with the characters, but overall I would consider this more a drama than an action flick. If you are a fan of the pure art of anime, then you will enjoy the style that this is presented with.

    PROS - Great original story set in a world on the verge of entering space. Completely unique adventure.
    CONS - A little slow at times as the characters develop and as long as you know it's not an action anime, you'll enjoy it.
