Synopsis

Review VENUS WARS (Manga Video), 104 mins, cert PG,
｣12.99
This is set on a future terraformed Venus and follows
the adventures of an investigative female reporter and a
young soldier, and of a motorcycle race team which gets
involved in a civil war. There are battle scenes and chase
scenes but the highlight of the movie is a race between
two armed military motorised unicycles down a ravine.
This isn't a particularly well-known Anime film but I
found it very watchable. In style the animation is quite
similar to live-action, and animation buffs will note the
sections where 'live' backgrounds have been used.
Worth a look.
