It was WAY better than the reviews led me to believe, I had zero problems with the ending.
CPU UK I loved it. Best pg13 violence I’ve seen. And they said venom pushed the limits lmao 😂
What ending?
@@elderwet273 the ending where she has killed everyone who was trying to kill her, you know, the HK thread of the film.
I didn't know that people chose to see movies based on how someone else reviewed it. That's interesting
The viewer reviews were terrific. It was the professional reviews that were useless.
Alita needs our help, they are suffering from low box office scores, because of unfair critics, thus ruining their chance for a sequel alita2, so if you love this film, please help them spread the word, we need alita 2 sequel, please
I am going to watch it the 2nd time today in IMAX 3D
@Jaren Lacy they haven't pass their safe zone yet to confirm a sequel, so they still need help
I saw it anime cartoon movie... above flying city more stronger cyborg than alita. Nova is waiting in part 2.
Been trying!!😢😢😢
I'm going to see it again on March 8th.
It’s a pretty good movie and I forgot that she was mostly cgi half the movie through.
I have 13.8K views
Weta have done a spectacular job in bringing Alita to life, they really set the bar to a whole new level
@craig thomas: I agree! The attention to detail is astounding: the scrunches of Alita's nose, the way her eyes brightened when something excited her, that ew face she made when she bit into that orange. My daughter and I can't get over how each strand of her hair appeared to have been animated inidividually. Weta is staffed by artists, and they eye candy they delivered shows how much care they put into this movie.
shows you where the tech is at... but I think the best feature in suspending that disbelief is the fact that Ms. Salazar is a relative unknown
I like it
seen it twice already, probably gonna see it again tomorrow.
Should've been a brutal hard R rating.
Bro I know I was blown away
The same... 😂
Me too😁
Same!!!!!!!!!
"Watch this before you watch the film" ...also... "Warning Spoilers"
TBH, reading the manga before watching the movie fills in many gaps. Weirdly enough, there are important details that is being spent more time on in the movie than the manga and vice versa.
Movie was hella nice. Her CGI and Personality were good. She was waifu material.
Backinlol she’s a cyborg weirdo
@@hash4103 tbh i like that kind of stuff lol...not trying to sound werid, somethin like plastic memorie
@@hash4103 so? what wrong with that? i cant like teenage female cyborgs? besides its more of a compliment than a statement.
Bryson the Mad Pencil smh... it’s not like that. I just really liked her character and look overall.
Dont know why i Always have a crush on black short hair girls :>
Whats cooler than pirates and ninjas
PIRATE NINJAS?
I have 13.8K views
My video is going viral right now 🔥
Lol, no. Its pirite robot ninga 😂🤣
Pirat cyborg robot ninja thats cooler
Then you're gonna love jump force
Just saw it. And it was awesome. Great action and really hope for a sequel.
Oh, so that's why she had anime eyes
I hit 13.8K views
Julian Ocasio One could also say that it’s also because of the type of cyborg she is.
Plus she's from Mars
The question is, why does no one else in the movie have anime eyes?
@@RK-ck6pl She is the only one with that specific type of head....her only organic part is her brain....and don't believe me.....but I think that not even that is Human = P
I saw it yesterday - GREAT movie😮😮😮
@Juss BRAVO official i saw it yesterday too 😮😯
Same
Same here...
But not the endinh
I was awesome! Faithful to the original! Finally, an anime adaptation done right.
I have watched Alita 7 times. It’s an addictive and wonderful movie 😍
Getting used to Alita's eyes was super easy, barely an inconvenience!
Seen it twice already, I could have easily sat for another 6+hours watching this universe. Top 3 Fav films
This is better than IGN and I still can’t believe IGN called Alita an android
Ikr? An Android is full machine and a Cyborg is part human.
@@tsukasa1608 Or at least part organic...which she is = )
tsukasa1608 yeah IGN need to do more research next time
Jesus Gilberto Solis Casillas y’know at least some people understand
@@deadlygamer_ Of course = )
I went in blind. No regrets
Same
I think that's actually the best way to watch the movie. No expectations result in being less biased and more receptive. :)
Still wishin for a Full Anime Adaptation one day!👈The MOVIE was the best Live action Manga ANIME adaptation ive seen and im a fan of the manga im caught up but i want a Anime series to do the original Last order the prequel as well! Get Madhouse or Sumbody
I just hit 13.8K views 🎊
I just saw it in chinema and i have to say wtf why all dies so ez
I like the Last Order manga. Very twisted and suspenseful
I'm thinking Armitage 3 Dual Matrix would make a great use of this. Maybe Megazone 23 which is a really old series as well.
But damn that would make for an awesome movie. Cyberpunk is difficult to do to do to begin with. There really has not been much that's been able to do it successfully.
I would say redo Ghost in the Shell at some point as well. That really left a bad taste in my mouth.
Bones or Mappa would be better. Madhouse has...domestic problems
Way better than Captain Marvel
Will be watching Alita Battle Angel again this weekend , reading her comic books, and excited in looking forward for Alita 2.
I grew up with Battle Angel when I was younger.
I enjoyed the movie. A solid 7/10. Linear storyline though and the motives of the villains were questionable.
Do you have 13.8K views like me
one thing that does bug me is how people call something a 7/10 then recommend it. that's why we have such mediocre movies these days
@@nodiggity4283 I recommended it? It was an enjoyable movie. If you like cgi heavy action movies with a bit of heart...you should like this movie. If you care more about story and character development..look elsewhere. That's my recommendation. Im not telling people to watch a movie I hated which is what you're insinuating.
@@nodiggity4283 Enjoyment factor is a different thing from an objective analysis. And there is merit to both. You can, and more than likely, you like some pieces of garbage media, and might even recommend them.
@@y3ee3e you're telling people not to ask for better
Dr. King Schultz:
How do you like the roller fight business?
Alita:
Kill bad guys and get paid for it? What's not to like?
The movie was super cool. And I want mooorrrreeeee. I feel like I would want a prequel rather than a sequel though. I think seeing the fall from Alita’s view would be really cool. We could also see who she was before she was Alita. I mean of course the sequel would be cool but I think a prequel would be better. Lol that’s my 2 cents
Who she was before is shown in the Last Order series, where she starts having flashbacks of that time. They should get around to that by the tenth movie at the current pace, and suddenly the motivations of everyone in the first movie will make sense.
@@GyrosGeier Yeah that would be really awesome. Last order is great. You get a bit of a glimpse of that from the war on Mars and from Alita's flashbacks.
Really some great material in here. If we're not going to get our Mass Effect movie. I can live with that as it's really that good. :b
Love Alita sooooooooooooooo much
Me too
Same!
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Blood Orange Sun I wish I was a lot older so that I could have read the manga a while ago
Loved the movie. Manga is now a must buy.
I'm going to watch this rather than Captain Woke.
Or fascist marvel.
Voitan don’t ever see that movie, it’s garbage
Its cool to see how anime and manga are gaining mainstream attention
The Manga Boy thanks to the movie
Just hope the sjw and feminist doesn't ruin anime too
I watched the movie yesterday...... it was good; don’t think to much.....just enjoy the movie. Story......amazing she is over 300 years old and earths modern tech is nowhere near advanced as hers. For me I’d really want to see her origin story and the Mars battle.
I recommend to people to get the manga instead of the anime since the anime was changed up a bit different from the manga
Deadly Vids
Yoooo guys I’m getting into the manga but I don’t really understand.
What I’ve gotten is that Battle Angel Alita is the first part, and that the ending was cut short so a sequel called Battle Angel Alita Last Order replaces the ending and continues the story. But what is Battle Angle Alita Mars Chronicles? I’ve understood it is the sequel to Last Order, but it appears to cover her childhood so does this mean that Mars Chronicles, chronologically takes place before Battle Angle Alita?? Or is it even further in the future taking place after Last order. I think the chronological order goes
Mars Chronicles> Battle Angle Alita> Last Order
Or an I wrong???
@@zicoxl Mars Chronicles is a sequel to Last Order, but delves into her origins on Mars
Isaiah Frazier
Does mar chronicles ever show Alita at the end of Last order, the present Alita I mean. Or does it purely only show her childhood on mars.
The Legendary Soldier I’m not quite sure I’ve never read the mars chronicles. I’m buying the first last order book soon but I think the last mars chronicles shows alita when she’s older
The way you pronounced manga was the correct native Japanese way to say the word.
I spent an inordinate amount of time trying to make sure that I got it right. Good to hear that I did!
Yes. It's nice to hear American pronounce it correctly
I have been learning Japanese for 8+ years and even though I know the correct pronunciation, I still pronounce manga incorrectly when speaking English because I find it awkward to switch between two dialects so suddenly in a sentence. Just like how when speaking Japanese I pronounce English words incorrectly, because the katakanized versions of these words are the way they are pronounced in the Japanese dialect.
I think he already knew that, but was just instigating as well as hoping that folk would jump on to argue about it
Definitely go see this movie! Best mix of Manga and Sci-fi into a movie adaptation, solid +8-9. Thanks Screen Rant, great little expose` on Alita for those that arn't familiar with the character or story.
I watched Alita with zero knowledge of the origin. And I loved it! After watching youtube vids like this explaining her origin makes me wanna watch it again. I'm glad I didn't know anything about Alita. People judge movies (negatively) like this because they know the origins and the comics that they tend to compare their geeky knowledge of the chatacter and somehow spoils their fun when the movie makers change the storylines. They forget to just enjoy watching a hard worked movie that's made for everyone to enjoy.
Got tickets for the wife and our friend for a 3D showing tomorrow, can’t wait!!!
I wonder if anyone ever feels like they’re the only one who liked Battle Angel/Gunnm(any series really)because they can’t find anyone else who likes it aside from Internet comments sections. I rarely heard anyone mentioning it except from online. Now, everyone will know about.
Can’t remember the last time I loved a movie so much , this is straight up a 10/10 movie and Best beLieve Im watching it again and buying the dvd
I thought Alita BA was good but a few creative choices did bring it down from great. For instance, the film makers portrayed Iron City as a vibrant and bustling marketplace instead of the manga's dystopia. This makes it significantly more difficult to associate with characters willing to do anything to reach the utopia of Zalem since the conditions they're currently living in isn't exactly suffering. That's an area where Elysium did a significantly better job of world building. Another weird choice was trying to cram way too much from the source material into a single movie. You mentioned Alita's plasma powers, right? Cameron decided it would look cool if she got them in the film when in the manga she didn't get those powers until later on. As a result she does little more than demonstrate that she has the powers and never actually uses them. Remember Star Wars Episode IV when Luke first got his hands on a lightsaber and did nothing with it? It was that kind of letdown.
Overall though, the action and focus on Alita herself was well done. 8/10
Better than Aquaman and Black Panther...they put me to sleep. Alita did NOT.
$399,866,842!
Box office.
And still in theaters here in Vegas!
Go, Alita, go!
Go, Alita, go!!
GO. ALITA, GO!!!
I've seen it pretty good great watch to be honest
Who has 13.8K views like I do
The NBA Storyteller stoppp
The NBA Storyteller wyd my guy, and I guess I have 15,000 views as well
Who else saw the movie more than once???
You won't get enough of her character! Her transition from being a sweet and lovely girl to a fierceful and fearless lady will keep you interested the whole time.
lolololololololololololol She didn't transition from a sweet and lovely girl to a fierce nothing. As she was who she was throughout the whole film. I think you're confusing how most folk change and switch up so easily, because they do not know themselves or care for themselves! I'm sure that because it was a movie, it would present it that way, but anyone that's alive and know a well balanced amount of people know that people who are themselves, don't change and become an array of personalities due to ?!?!?!?!?!
Tf you on about go take a nap
This movie blew me away, best anime / manga adaptation ever made
作为一名中国观众，电影上映第二天我就去看了，甚至连续看了三遍，令人着迷。这真的是一部很认真的电影。我看到了电影去认真的塑造一位主角，她的成长，她的内心，她的品行，是丰富的，立体的。她的情感表达让我触动，仿佛这就是现实中的真人，一位重获新生的懵懂地女孩儿，为了寻找自我不停的战斗。内心的情感转变，她的成长宛若真人。我爱这部电影。真心希望能看到好多续集。
Watched this in the cinema, it was amazing. The fight scenes are action packed, makes you want to jump put your seats. BUT THE MOVIE WAS SO LOUD
Dolby ATMOS in 3D is awesome!
@@robertlawrence9000 Would've been waayyy better to watch Alita like that
I watched the movie and it's a solid 7.7/10 She is cute with those eyes 👍👍👍
I actually want to see this movie, it might actually be a decent anime/manga adaptation! 😄😁👍
better than decent ! I've seen it twice so far. :)
shogiwar Agreed, and lucky you, I can't wait to see it myself! 😄😁👍
its pretty solid as an adaptation ,,my only complaint is it should have been about an hour longer and possibly a bit darker ( but i guess it's toned down a bit to get a wider audience the anime /manga is pretty brutal and graphic at some points ) ,, still i can't wait for an extended directors cut on blue ray,,like aliens and avatar got ,,,, take my money James Cameron
blacksnow150 I still need to watch/read Alita still, but I like James Cameron's work, so I honestly can't wait to see it! 😄😁👍
Fantastic movie. It should be seen in theaters in dolby 3d.
None around me. Only fake iMAX 3d and reald 3D
I'm here for Christoph Waltz.
Nikki M. Solis djangoo
Saw it twice thus far & will have seen it a 3rd time come tomorrow with more friends. It's been like wrangling cats. Anyway been a fan since collecting the manga in the late '90s. Film is great & have no complaints. Hope Disney doesn't screw things up once they acquire Fox. It's being said this is Fox last film before the merge. Btw, for those who don't know; panzer kunst roughly means 'armored arts' in German. I hope the film continues to do well.
Saw it already. First good Anime-Manga adaptation, love it.
I remember the anime. I liked her because she was spunky.
I'm glad they sat on this for so long though. Can you imagine? If they'd made this earlier they would've cast Jessica Alba!
No please!😆
"... Alita, or Gally in some versions" -> that's the other way round: Gally is the original name and was kept in many translations. But Viz decided to change it to Alita for you folks, for some obscure reason. For example, in my country (France), the translations kept the original name...
Salem also was changed to Tipharse. But went changed semi back to Zalem in the movie.
Did the professional critics even watch the same movie as I saw. The critic scores would have had me believe this was a C movie, on par with every other anime adaptation. How can these professionals be so wrong and still have a career? This was like Adelaide Byrd levels of being wrong. Alita was seriously the best movie I've seen in a LONG time.
Had never heard of this before. Will definately give it a look now.
I seen it a an early screening and i thought it was awesome my only complaint it i want a sequel
That is my only real complaint as well.
It's a wish... I hope it did well to secure a sequel and more, prove critics wrong. I want to see Alita more...
That’s why I’m seeing it twice.
Now that 20th Century Fox is owned by Disney, does that put Alita in the running as a princess 😂😂😂
"Or not Ironman". I hope for the sequel to show how powerful the Berserker Body is and in (dreamlike scenario) sequels to show how powerful her future Imaginos Body is (made by Nova itself).
This is one of the dopest movies I’ve ever seen!! Rosa Salazar did a phenomenal job as Alita and their definitely needs to be a sequel!!
Saw it with my wife on Valentine’s Day , then saw it again with the kids during the weekend. They all loved it.
I watched it today it was so damn good
I just noticed Rotten Tomatoes' score for Alita Battle Angel suddenly changed from rotten, to fresh..... Fascinating... Just saw it tonight, Loved it! What a wild ride!
"Comic Origins"
*Yeah it's called a "Manga"*
Zeal Senpai same thing weeb
@@TheNorthSwamp actually no. Manga is a graphic-novel-style content that is made mostly in japan without any colour, while comic is a more cartoonish type of thing. Plus manga usually read from right to left while comics is from left to right.
@@TheNorthSwamp and judging from your pfp you've read berserk before and still can't tell the differences.
What a shame
Zeal Senpai they’re the practically the same thing only differences are the country of origin and how it’s read
@@TheNorthSwamp >the same thing
>only differences
Its like saying dog and cat are the same thing even tho they're not
Great movie! Loved all the action! Please please please make the sequel!!!!
I was drooling way before this video but you definitely made it better. Thanks.
The movie was really good. But its a new adaptation of the manga. If your familiar with the original story you'll notice that they took pieces of the story and kinda rearranged it. The original story is waaay better and a bit darker than the movie. Dont get me wrong I saw it twice and would continue to like it. Been reading the manga and im really liking it. Enjoy the movie peoples.
Screw the reviewers, this was a great movie, easily the best adaptation Ive seen in my life.
The title of this wrong, not comic origin but manga origin.
(From manga to anime to live action high budget hollywood).
Movie was awesome! Her face looked like an instagram filter to make eyes look giant.
I liked the rollerball scenes. My only dislike was that it was too long and too short at same time. I took a smoke break after she kills Grewishka thinking an epic battle with Nova was coming up next only to return to credits rolling. Oh well good setup for a sequel.
Great movie. Fantastic action scenes.
"You should be ready to go into that film armed with a bit more knowledge"
Already seen the movie 6 times, read the original manga twice and the entire Last Order.
Yeah, I think I should have a rough idea on what's going on 😉
Motorball: An insane mashup of roller and demolition derby with androids. (though there’s actually a toned down street hockey like version we see being played early on, unsurprisingly by a bunch of teenagers)
I’ve been following Alita for twenty years. The anime eyes are light years away from the strangest thing about her.
Just watched it on bluray. Awesome movie. Absolutely love it. The ending was great. Definitely needs the sequel.
I have never watched this Japanese manga. However, I became a fan of Alita after I watched this movie.
This is how a successful manga-to-realitish conversion should be like.
I'm just glad they didn't say the movie wasn't for "white males" like that other movie did.
Watched it. I had fun.
Saw the anime movie back in the 90s. Always knew it will be a featured film some day.
I really hope the sequel gets made. I did my part so far and saw it 3 times in theaters. Go and see it in the theater if you haven't already. Support the movie so we can get a sequel.
I went in blind and was not disappointed.
I saw it today sooo good i hope more of it comes beacuse the ending was not the best
if the movie was released like, 25 years ago it would be closer to the manga, with actual exploding brains and fight scenes, war against the barjack, going to zalem, find their secret, and make Desty Nova seen as a real psychopath.
also you're not a true motorball fans until a racer uses your hands as a ornament.
Giant scrap yard for a floating city. So Wall-e, Ergo Proxy???
I remember watching the old school sorts. Give me trippy crazy dreams as a kid
I saw a battle Angel over the weekend and thoroughly loved it I hope we get a new anime at some point and I hold the movie does well so we can get a sequel to that
It was amazing but it got overshadowed by Captain Marvel being in the theater also.
And the paid "professional" critics putting down this movie on reviews even though the viewer reviews are great.
I saw the movie twice. First alone, second with some family members. Great friggin movie!
*Now what we need a a Dororo live action film!! Geez we really do!!*
Dororo had a live action movie in 2007. Of course it was only shown in Japan.
i watched the movie yesterday or Feb 20th and i think there is going to be a part 2 for this movie cuz the evil guy （forgot his name）was not defeted at the end but hugo （alitas boyfriend…kinda）died trying to get to a city in the sky （forgot what it was called…agin）and at the end she was in the champions league in motorball games
welp byeeeee
thats Nova the bad guy
Just saw the movie it is really good
Nobody:
Alita battle angle: 👁 👁
-
Five of us just watched it and loved it! We all can’t wait for part 2!
That scene where she just sort of effortlessly pops up into scorpion pose on a single fingertip though...
Just to clear one thing, Gunnm is the initial name of the protagonist. But when this manga translate into English, American think Gunnm is not a good name to catch on, so they use “Alita ”, the name from Soviet science fiction film Aelita: Queen of Mars(yes, it existed) instead. Author Yukito Kishiro actually like this change, he keep this name. So Alita is canon now.
I plan to see this with my wife and son. I've been viewing anything and everything I could watch about Alita. Thank you to RUclips for all that's Alita.
If the movie does well maybe they’ll do another animation. I recommend to everyone that they read the comic. It’s very good.
Alita's Box Office is finely running smooth! :) It can end up 400m tomorrow.
Ooohh yeah!!! This is the kind of films that you have to watch at the movie theater.
I love this film and Rosa Salazar's portrayal of the protagonist.
All I can say is, i went to go see it tonight without any knowledge of what it was about and Wow. Think I’ll go see it again, very good movie 💯
I watched 2 time with my daughter...and can "t stand waiting the sequel..
My daughter want to see Alita for 3rd times..
My hubby also enjoyed the movie
Very good movie
This is the third successful adaptation of manga/anime into live action with Edge Of Tomorrow, and Speed Racer.
When Alita was joined to the berserker she became waifu material
NEVER judge anything on reviews...Seen 3x and can't wait for the sequel...
Be Nice if "FOX" Executives Had Debut a 2nd "Alita:BattleAngel" Film By Now...
