Achilles the tortoise

About This Movie

So, 'Achilles the Tortoise'—what a curious little flick! Set against the vibrant backdrop of Kobe, you’ve got this frantic chase vibe that’s both amusing and oddly touching. The main character, Mei, played by Dohi Kiriko, embodies that frantic energy as she teams up with Morii Masashi's detective. The pacing feels a bit erratic at times, but it adds to the suspense, especially leading up to the climax at Sumaura Mountain Amusement Park. The visuals, though not overly polished, have a certain raw charm, and the practical effects really set it apart from slicker sci-fi offerings. Plus, there’s a quirky humor that sneaks in unexpectedly, making it a unique watch, for sure.
