Roller-blading cyborg gladiators in a hyper-detailed urban sprawl. Rodriguez channels manga roots, giving you neon skylines, class strife, and stellar VFX work.

Robotic gladiators and killer tech in a cyberpunk city—live-action anime vibes, and seriously underrated.

Overview

When Alita awakens with no memory of who she is in a future world she does not recognize, she is taken in by Ido, a compassionate doctor who realizes that somewhere in this abandoned cyborg shell is the heart and soul of a young woman with an extraordinary past.

Roger Ebert

As far as movies about girl robots go, 'Alita' isn’t so bad.

IGN

Although Alita: Battle Angel falls short of its intelligent, philosophical source material, it’s still an incredible production.

The Hollywood Reporter

With a reported $200 million budget, this kick-ass cyberpunk adventure seems to be aiming for the same blockbusting box office heights as the Hunger Games franchise. But a lumpy script, muddled plot, stock characters and tired genre tropes may dampen its commercial breakout potential.

Collider

I've just met a girl named Alita, and suddenly that name—thanks to director Robert Rodriguez and some downright dazzling visual effects work from the folks at Weta Digital—will never be the same.

IndieWire

Rosa Salazar shines as a not-quite-human heroine in this long-awaited manga adaptation produced by James Cameron.

Vulture

The only reason any of this movie works at all is Rosa Salazar and, I hate to say it, those goddamned big eyes.

Empire

Best enjoyed for the fun, slick action and the astonishing, super-expressive realisation of Alita herself, because elsewhere it's cyberpunk business as usual, marred by some sloppy plotting.

IMDb

The film really kept true to the original manga and reassembled almost everything from the manga—the scenes, mechanical bodies, characters, and the world they lived in.
