Just caught the flick -- I liked it, surprisingly. It followed the anime fairly well and the special effects were awesome. This is clearly a big-budgeted feature and it shows on screen. I didn't think they could pull off some of the stuff that happened in the anime, but they did it, and very well too.
On the negative side, don't expect much extreme violence or gore, which were both key points for the anime. I guess since its so high-budgeted the producers didn't want to make it too unpleasant for viewers, so the gore is definitely toned down. There is some blood and gore, of course, just not as much or as graphic as the anime was.
If I hadn't seen the anime and went in without knowing anything about the story, I would've loved the flick. As a standalone, it's a great scifi/action piece. However, as a live-action adaptation of an anime that I know and love, it is a little disappointing. As I said, it's a little TOO similar to the anime, so we don't get any surprises. And, also as previously stated, the gore has been cut back
Regardless, I still enjoyed the flick, and marveled at what they were able to accomplish with it. Fans of the anime/manga will likely be disappointed, but those who aren't familiar with either should get a kick outta this. Either way, see this with an open mind 7/10

I didn't like it... there were waaaayyyyy too many moments where I wanted to scream at the screen "JUST SHOOT THE FUCKING THING, GODDAMN IT!!!!" but no.. mofos would just stand around until the bad-thing would attack and THEN decide to shoot AFTER it had killed one or two of the crew...
Movie just kept pissing me off all the way through it....
