Alita: Battle Angel is one hell of pretty looking movie. The world Robert Rodriguez and James Cameron build looks amazing. I loved the character design, the action scenes, Christoph Waltz was amazing, I really liked Rosa Salazar as Alita! The story was interesting and the ending looks like they have more planned. (Especially with Edward Norton showing up at the end, you don't give him a role to just stand there for 10 seconds unless you want him back later). The other good thing is that this movie never drags. You are invested for the whole 2 hours. At least I was!

I found out after the movie that this is based on a manga called Gunnm. Which I know intend to read because there is such a big world above Iron City we haven't explored yet! That defense system is brutal! I also want the story to continue with a sequel, we need more Ed Skrein as Zapan! Hopefully he can repair is face.

Anyway I do think if I read the manga I will see some different choices but that might be because making a movie is different in pacing than a manga. But I'll have to read it to find out! Alita: Battle Angel is a great blockbuster with fun action, a fun story and fun characters. Not everything is perfect but it is 2 hours of popcorn fun!

Ps. I'm glad Hugo is gone!
