3 out of 5 stars MD Geist a decent Anime Movie   July 1, 2004
First, I laugh at the critics who say this great anime had little character development, senseless violence, bad dubbing and sound. M.D Geist is not that, is a fantastic , war anime in space, that's actually very realistic. Also I saw that the Uncut Japanese, English subtitled version, not the crappy dubbed version these idiots watched. lol

The plot, and it's a great one is the Geist is part of space soldier team. They have a great war against an enemy and Geist is one the few men still alive. His platoon though deserts him, and leaves him for dead.

If the plot sounds familiar, its exactly like "Soldier" with Kurt Russell in animated form.

Geists though, only on brawn and brains survives and destroys everything in his path. Well not everything, he does come to a city invaded by a bunch of deadly gangs (like in Fist of the North Star) and eventually he wipes them out too...

Geists platoon eventually find out that he's still alive and want to use him, check that abuse him.

Geist has other plans , and what results in a hour of the best hand drawn action anime you've seen.

The other critics don't know what they're talking about, so check it out.

I know great anime (Macross DYRL, Gundam Wing) and M.D. Geist is great.


4 out of 5 stars Maybe too short...little plot...well....   December 27, 2000
Anime is a very broad category. M.D. Geist enters in at the aciton category. Basically, the entire story is 50 minutes of fighting and bloodshed. It is overall a good movie, Geist is a very interesting character. The basic plot is very quick and is merely a prequel of things to come.

If they call this an anime, I say: WHAT A SHAME! Not only is this movie too short, it's got bad voices for every single charicter, lousy animation (But that's just cause it's an 80's show), and does every voice need to ecco? If that's not bad enough, all the acting was more lousy than the animation. Plus the plot is not well develiped. Don't even rent this movie.


3 out of 5 stars Good for what it is   March 1, 2000

Not bad...it's ok for what it is, a story about a generic loner guy who comes to the aid of the underdogs. Some cool mecha stuff at the end, but my main gripw with this movie is it's too short. i don't even think it's an hour long. Which means there's no development of Geist (who could be a very interesting character) or anything else. All this stuff just happens. The end was sort of confusing, a bunch of stuff just happens and you're like 'what?' but a lot of anime is like that. If you like Mad Max, this is a LOT like it. But a lot of other animes dealt with the perfect-fighter idea and its ramifications a lot more smoothly, like Armitage III and Ghost in the Shell. This isn't bad though, theres enough cool stuff to make it worthwhile. This is a great movie to just sit and not care about the story (there's not much of one) and just go "cool! he cut that guy's arms off!" Geist kicks major a$$ in the hour he's on your TV, so that's cool. He's just not very deep, at least from what i got out of it.


2 out of 5 stars It barely deserves anything   December 26, 1999

It's the worst anime I've ever seen. How did this get popular enough to be released here? Watch Ninja Scroll, Akira, A wind named Amnesia, Judge, Ghost in the shell, Macross Plus. This is garbage.
