Ghost in the Shell

Action Animation Science Fiction

In the year 2029, the barriers of our world have been broken down by the net and by cybernetics, but this brings new vulnerability to humans in the form of brain-hacking. When a highly-wanted hacker known as 'The Puppetmaster' begins involving them in politics, Section 9, a group of cybernetically enhanced cops, are called in to investigate and stop the Puppetmaster.

Ghost in the Shell (1995) aka Kōkaku kidōtai aka 攻殻機動隊, directed by Mamuro Oshii, hybrid 4k remaster, encoded in 10 bit HEVC with AAC sound, including Japanese 7.1 remaster, original Japanese theatrical stereo, English 7.1 dub, English stereo dub, commentary track, and subtitles in English, German, Japanese, and Spanish.

IMDb : https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0113568/

Video encoded in two-pass 10.0 Mbps x265 10bit with the veryslow preset for archive quality image. Audio encoded separately with Apple AAC for the highest-quality AAC sound available. Subtitles converted to VobSub and repositioned.

Note : I guess it was inevitable that we'd get around to this one, the defining Japanese cyberpunk film, and definitely the most influential, obviously on the Matrix films, but also on James Cameron's Avatar and a bunch of other stuff. More than anything, though, it's just one of the most pure distillations of cyberpunk as a genre in film, with gritty, violent street scenes, a cynical noir outlook, gorgeous and omnipresent tech, geo-political maneuvering, and the balls to raise big questions about identity and humanity. It's also a bit exploitative, of course, since this is 90s anime, so you get some unnecessary light nudity and a protagonist that's more sexualized than she has to be, but you take the good with the bad. Also, perhaps the most perfect sci-fi title sequence in film history. Note that only the original theatrical Japanese stereo audio has the original Kenji Kawai track over end credits, all others have the Brian Eno/U2 song "One Minute Warning" that was used in the English language release.

In 2029, cybernetic technology allows the augmentation or complete replacement of the human body, although the "ghost", or essence of human consciousness, can not be copied, so squishy human brain meat is still a unique and vulnerable necessity. Major Kusanagi is the leader of a team of agents of New Port City's Public Security Section 9, carrying out domestic covert operations essential to national security. After the prime minister's interpreter's ghost is hacked remotely, presumably to sabotage diplomatic talks and assassinate VIPs, Kusanagi's team is put on the trail of the mysterious Puppet Master, a master hacker about which almost nothing is known. The actual perpetrators of the hack turn out to have been ghost-hacked themselves, with fake memories and entire backstories irreversibly implanted into their brains, and can offer no information. A facility creating cybernetic bodies for the goverment is hacked, and autonomous machines assemble an unauthorized body, which escapes the factory, but is hit by a car on the highway. When Section 9 examines it, they find a human ghost in it, but they're surprised at the arrival of the head of Section 6, who claims the ghost is the Puppet Master himself, lured into a trap by Section 6. The body activates itself, proclaims itself a sentient being, and demands political asylum, but agents working with Section 6 steal the body, and Section 9 must recover it and find out the real origin of the Puppet Master.

The visuals in this film, a blend of traditional cel animation and CGI, are quite gorgeous, but several attempted remasters apply too much denoise and other processing (and the "official" 2.0 remaster looks horrible). This hybrid remaster uses one of the better image transfers, as well as sound from different sources, to create a near-definitive version that still looks and feels much like it did in 1995, and I've used a fairly high bitrate to maintain detail and (subtle) film grain. All the soundtracks sound great, and the commentary track, mostly featuring people involved with the English-language version, is also interesting.

Hot tip

Quote:

HeVK torrents always have lots of keywords. Try searching for “hevk cyberpunk” for more augmented humans, gritty streets, and femmes fatales, “hevk animation” for more animated fun, or “hevk japanese” for more from the country where it's always twenty minutes into the future.
