MPAA Rating: R for Violence This is a movie based on a seires by the same name. Cowboy Bebop is the story of four bounty hunters (Ex-mofiya(?) Spike Spiegel, ex-cop Jet Black, Faye Valentine, and the hacker girl who looks like a boy, Ed.) who live in the future on a spaceship called the Bebop. In the movie, the foursome meet their fiercest bounty yet: Vincent. As the four scourage the solar system to find traces on this guy, things start to come together, about not only Vincent, but a dangeorus virus that could soon endanger life as they know it! Unfortunetly, I haven't seen enough of the seires to compare the two very well. I'm sorry. However, I do know that the seires is only rated PG-13, while this movie is rated R. The action rocks. Yup. You want a good, hard-core kick butt action movie, skip the rest the review, just pick it up. ^-^; ; Unless you're kids are going to watch it... While the plot is kind of confusing, people say the bad guy... lacks motivation. Yeah, I'll go with that. I didn't get that. But honestly, it can go either way. Others said it was too much like a normal Cowboy Bebop episode, just longer. Like I said, I have little to say because I haven't seen much of the seires, but from the little I have seen, I'd say, nope, this isn't your average Bebop. But it does have everything a Bebop fan would want: Killer martial arts, a dramatic "swordfish" chase, a twisted bad guy, mystery, yup. ^-^ I'd this movie deserves every bit of it's three-and-a-half stars. ^-^
Rated For: Sexual and Nudity: Chicks dress skimpy as usual, Vincent makes out with Faye (not her choice, of course -.-) Then pops her shirt (Is that what they call it?) with a knife, so it opens up, but it doesn't open up and reveal anything. Then she *greatfully* rolles over. But yeah. She has a long talk with Vincent like that... Language: Oh man... a lot of language. I don't think it was every other word, but it was pretty bad. I think their was... sh*t, d*mn, b*st*rd, b*tch, h*ll... yup. Offence to Chirstianity: I don't think there were any Oh my Gods, actually, but there were probably Jesus Christs. Other: There was a slight horror aspect to it. Cornfeild's Rating: R Quotes:
Old Woman: He called you a cowboy. What did he mean? What are you?
Jet: Spike, if that hostage had been shot, what would you have done then? Ed: Food, glorious food!
[Faye draws a picture of Vincent]
[Jet describes the Nano-Machines]
Lee Samson: Twentieth century games are really nice. Games nowadays are getting boring. I'm more into old school games like this one. Back then, games like these were enough for everyone. It's the same with hackers. It was better when there were few. Then, even the smallest thing left you in the history books. Now, protection is tighter everywhere. Unless you do something really big, no one will know you. That's why I am grateful towards you, seriously. I always wanted to... try being a terrorist.
Rasheed: I don't recommend the Calabar beans. They are used to see if your wife is cheating on you. The innocent eat at once; they choke and spit them out. But the guilty eat cautiously, slowly, which makes the poison work. Soon, she is crying out in pain. That's how you can tell.
Spike: Thanks, but I'm not married.
Rasheed: Now that is true happiness.
Vincent: Why don't you shoot?
Vincent: What's your name?
Faye: Why did you do all this? For money? Some sort of revenge? Or perhaps just for fun? Vincent: No one can draw a clear line between sane and insane. You move that line as you see fit for yourself. No one else can. You'll understand soon... that the one that's insane is this world. Do you want to come with me? The only ones left will be you and me. Ed: Teeter Totter Teeter Totter!
Worker: Who are you? Spike: He was just all alone. He couldn't enjoy a game with anyone else. Like living in a dream... That's the kind of man he was...
