The movie is based on the Japanese cyberpunk manga series Battle angel Alita, originally published in Shueisha's Business Jump magazine,from 1990 to 1995,adding 9 volumes.

 

A robot repair surgeon finds the remains of an android in the garbage thrown by the suspended city above their city. He puts the android together with the body of the one he had and brings her back. He names her Alita ,which was his dead daughter’s name .The body he gave her was also supposed to be for his daughter who died.

 

Alita soon discovers she is strong and has fighting skills.

The moment she leaves the surgeon’s place she meets and befriends this man who dismembers androids for a living in an attempt to move to the suspended city. The very same moment sparks fly between them if you get my meaning.

 

The action scenes were good.

 

I didn’t care for the soundtrack,if I were to talk about it I’d say I didn’t like it.

 

It bored me before the first hour was done.

 

Rating : Could have been a contender !
